I know my ex-girlfriend is bad for me, but I still miss her

DEAR DEIDRE: EVEN though my girlfriend treated me badly and then dumped me, I still miss her.

After two years together, she told me she didn’t want a serious relationship when she went to university.

No issue is too small, too large or too embarrassing. Read our personal replies here.

But she met another guy very fast and plastered pictures of them together all over social media.

Then they broke up and she said she wanted me back. I still loved her but felt I couldn’t trust her, so we agreed to be friends.

Every problem gets a personal reply, usually within 24 hours weekdays.

I know she’s bad for me, but I can’t stop thinking about her. We’re both 18.

DEIDRE SAYS: The heartbreak of first love is hard to get over.

You’ll always love her on some level, but rationally, you know she won’t make you happy.

Distance and time will help, as will meeting new people. My support pack, Moving On, should help you.
