It’s easy to feel insecure when you think about your partner’s exes or previous experiences. You might wonder if they were happier before or if they still think about someone else. But here’s the truth — love isn’t a competition.
Your partner chose you for a reason. Their past relationships were part of their journey, helping them understand what they truly want and need. Comparing yourself to someone from their past only weakens your self-esteem and creates unnecessary tension.
Confidence and trust go hand in hand. Instead of competing with ghosts, focus on nurturing the love that exists now. Make new memories, build trust, and communicate openly. You are part of their present story — not their past.
Love thrives in acceptance. When you stop comparing and start appreciating, you realize that the past isn’t your enemy; it’s simply what led your partner to you.
