THE 5 THINGS THAT MAY REALLY BE HAPPENING

If someone keeps returning to your thoughts, before assuming it’s some mysterious sign, consider these five possibilities:

1. Your mind may be trying to close a story that was left emotionally unfinished.

2. You may miss what that person represented—not necessarily who they really were.

3. Places, songs, times, and routines may still be triggering associations connected to them.

4. There may be an emotion—love, anger, guilt, sadness, or disappointment—that still needs to be processed.

5. That memory may be revealing a need in your present life that isn’t being fulfilled.

None of these possibilities makes the relationship any less important.

Quite the opposite.

They can help you understand why that person left such a deep mark on you.
