[27M] I am struggling with my first breakup with my ex [22F] who I am still friends with 2 months later. What are my options?
Post Body

As it says in the title. I [27M] am struggling with a bunch of emotions flooding in two months after my breakup with my ex [22F]. It was my first relationship and we both broke it off amicably because we weren't happy with the relationship. We were together for a year and a half.

We were both far too busy for a relationship, and had both gained some weight over the past year together. The relationship was becoming hostile and neither one of us was happy and we agreed that while we still love each other it's best to just be friends.

I feel as if I had dealt with my emotions leading up to the breakup, and shortly after. She had been treating me pretty poorly leading to the breakup so that helped.

I'm currently finding myself missing my physical and emotional connection with her, and find myself fantasising and dreaming about her the past week. I recently tried going on a date with another person but just felt guilty for trying again so early, and realised i was not over her yet.

I seem to have forgotten every reason we broke up to begin with, and even when I remember it's like it was ndver there, which isnt helping at all. I find myself wanting to be back with her.

I would like some tips on what should to do? This is my first breakup so I'm at a bit of a loss.

PS. I've been working on myself, gym and jogging consistently as well as absorbing myself into my work and studies. I've been eating healthy, losing weight, focusing on my hobbies, and maintaining a good sleep schedule. I don't think the generic 'focus on yourself' applies here.
