My gf recently broke up with me, so i started thinking about my ex-girlfriends in general. i realized i think about them frequently (i don't feel anything when I do) but does getting over my failed relationships mean forgetting my ex gfs?

It's acknowledging the past, but not ruminating on it, and finding a way to be excited, curious or hopeful about what comes next. What's done is done, for the good and the bad it brought you, and the lessons you took from it. What's next is unknown, new, and so you shouldn't carry judgement, pain, anxiety, or fear into the future. Don't let what hurt you before dictate your future. Pain isn't meant to reveal what hurts you about another person, it's to teach you about yourself. Interrogate the pain, and ask not what they did to hurt you, but why it hurt you, and figure out what about yourself the pain is trying to show you. Don't live by it, don't live in fear of it, live with it and let it help you grow.
nah, theres a reason she messaged me and said those things to me. I'll keep the path because her words are not the only thing I hear of us. Soulmates is different than anything else.
