Things change but some feelings stay the same.

When we truly love someone, no matter what happens between us, and what separates you from them, the love for someone and certain feelings that you have for them will never change. Years after a rough break up with a love of a lifetime will not make every feeling you have for that past love go away because you were programmed to love that person for your lifetime.

If you are left with feelings for someone after many of things have changed it is crucial for you to recognize that you aren't the only one who still has feelings for someone after so much has changed, and after both parties have moved on. This is a normal part of losing a loved one, and you probably wouldn't be human if you didn't sometimes remember someone that you loved very deeply. Learning to manage these feelings will be difficult but don't let them stop you from continuing to live your life.
