This is a personal theory I'm thinking about.
As I look back over my life, I remember every guy I ever liked, had a crush on, had a relationship with regardless of how long or short, and I keep coming back to regardless of how short or bad the relationship was, there are still some good things that I remember.
I can look back at moments, seasons, comments, interactions, etc., and I have feelings of fondness and a general good will toward the individual. Then I get hit with a twinge of sadness. Why didn't that work out?
I know all the answers as to why it didn't work out. I would never want to go back to the bad aspects of the relationships, or experience the bad parts of the person's personality or behaviors again. However, there was something good, something that made the effort worth it while it lasted.
I don't hate the people in my past, but I do hate the bad things they did. And the good memories of them or things we did or said continues to linger. I don't miss being in these relationships and I don't want any of these guys back. But sometimes I miss the good parts of who the people were.
I don't know if this makes sense.
