“It’s not like I’m not interested in new people, but I’m never motivated to pursue anything with them. Everything pales in comparison to my ex.” Thoughts like these are symptomatic of the “the one that got away” syndrome. Overidealizing and obsessing over an unrealized love story from your past can lead you to believe that the person you were meant to spend the rest of your life with is now forever beyond your grasp.
