I can’t stop thinking about my ex – I think I’m obsessed with her

DEAR DEIDRE: I KNOW my obsessive feelings for my ex are unhealthy, but I can’t stop thinking about her.

She’s not a nice person and cheated on me, but our sex life was amazing. I couldn’t get enough of her.

That’s probably why I stayed with her even though she kept hurting me.
