#232: Why Do I Miss My Ex Now That I’m Dating Someone New? (Ask Steph)

In this Ask Steph episode, I’m answering a listener question about why old feelings can resurface when you re-enter the dating world, and what to do when that catches you off guard.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Why missing your ex after a breakup can show up later, not earlier
  • How dating again brings up fresh comparisons — and why that’s so normal
  • The difference between missing your ex and missing familiarity, comfort, or routine
  • Why comparing a new connection to a long-term relationship is often distorted
  • How not to spiral or make meaning out of these feelings
  • What to do instead of panicking or second-guessing your breakup

If you’re otherwise excited about someone new and this has thrown you, this episode is a reminder to slow down, stay grounded, and trust that this experience doesn’t have to mean anything is wrong.
