The Special Ex You'll Always Remember

There is a famous song by songstress Katy Perry that is titled 'The one that got away'. And this song captures a very special emotion that almost everybody has. There is one special ex that we always remember and miss. It is not a very big deal to remember your ex. In fact most of us remember all our ex partners. But this is always one past relationship that we remember with a sense of longing nostalgia.

Usually, that special ex we remember all the time is 'the one that got away'. Secretly, we always regret that we broke up with this ex partner. Most often, it strikes us only after many years have passed, that special someone was just perfect for us. But the time and place we met these ex partners was unsuitable.

Here are certain things that set this special ex apart from all the other ex partners that we remember.

You Track Him/ Her On Facebook

This special ex is most certainly on your Facebook friends list and you keep a close watch on his or her life. When you are bored and don't know what to do, you just go into this particular ex partner's profile and get updates on his or her life.

You Quiz Common Friends

You two still might have some common friends. So even if you are not in touch with your ex partner, you keep in touch with your common friends who can be quizzed about his/ her whereabouts.

You Still Remember Birthdays n Anniversaries

In case of this special ex, you remember birthdays and anniversaries. You make it a point to drop your ex a message on his/ her birthday. You obviously cannot wish 'happy anniversary' any more but that doesn't stop you from remembering it.

You Are Depressed When Your Ex Gets 'Engaged'

When you see 'committed', 'engaged' or worse 'married' in the relationship status column of your ex's profile, you are depressed for days. You may be perfectly happy and stable in your relationship but the thought of your special ex with someone else pinches your heart.

You Pour Over His/ Her Photos

Your favourite pastime is to pour over your ex partner's latest photos and ponder over how much more good looking he or she has become since you both parted.

You Have Sovereigns From Your Time Together

Past relationships can never be wiped away. There will always be that t-shirt that your ex-girlfriend gifted you or the ring your ex-boyfriend gave you. But you usually do not save this tit-bits after a breakup. However, you will always keep the sovereigns from your special past relationship consciously. This reminds you of your time together.
