Hey everybody, first post here.

So I was in a relationship with a sag girl for almost 2 years. She ended it about a year ago. I begged her to come back but she said she was too hurt to do so, and eventually, I gave up because I was too hurt to go on. A year and a bit went by and to my surprise, she told me she missed me a lot and that my love made her feel safe. I was hopeful that I'd be able to work something out, but within 2 months of her saying that, she has found a new bf (who appears to be a Virgo/Libra). When I found this, it absolutely killed me - it was like living the breakup all over again. While I am trying my best not to be too hung up, I still do love her, as I always have. I'm not here to ask for advice on how to break them up or anything stupid. But I would like to know, if they do breakup, would she still have the same feelings for me, or would her new relationship bury them? If she still does, what can I do to make things work?

I personally think it was very selfish of her to tell you that she missed you that long after breaking up with you if she was not intending to be with you again.. she just reopened your wounds for nothing. After something like that I wouldn't even want to try and make it work with her. That was a low blow and I am very sorry you are going through this right now. I know it's likely eating you alive trying to figure out just how she feels, but she started a new relationship not long after telling you how she was feeling so to me it sort of seems like she was lonely and looking for attention.. she tried to feel you out again but something is telling me she was also looking elsewhere too, hence finding someone so quickly after opening up to you again.

Thanks for your insight. I suppose not all love is reciprocated​. I want to move on. And I know I will. But deep deep down I'm always going to hope it somehow works out. After all, I loved this person dearly. Unfortunately for me, I still do.

Nothing to be surprised about given I'm a cancer. I let loose my insecurities without even being remotely aware of what I was doing or how much damage it was causing. Even though she knew I loved her, she must have felt caged in, when it just was not what I wanted.
