DEAR DIARY
I really do not like how much of a psychological presence my ex has in my life at this point. I haven't talked to them since 2022 and I haven't SEEN them since the beginning of 2020, and I was actively tapering off interacting with them even before that. I don't think about them at all anymore until my brain decides to remind me about how they would say or do something and overlay that onto a recent memory or current moment that has nothing to do with them.
I guess they show up in my dreams fairly frequently, or at least a lot of dreams that I actually remember are related to them being back in my life and generally being annoying and I wake up annoyed,lol
