So I actually have two cases here from my experience :
1.) The one which makes me sure that guys do not forget their first love: So I know this guy for 6 years now we have had on off relationship(never dated just online text and met once) in between I ghosted him for 2 years cause there were alot of things that triggered me to do so. He told me I was his first love. Few days back I talked to him again, he is in a new relationship now, today we called for 7 hours and he told me he still feels the same for me ( no disrespect to the girl he is dating) he just wanted to clear things out and he told me that.
2.) This is from my first ever proper relationship we were both 19 when we started and 21 when we broke up . It was a 1.5 years long relationship. But things weren’t working out for me and he told me I was his first love. But his actions didnot match what he claimed after we broke up currently he is dating my ex- bestfriend and are in a live in relationship and are going pretty strong.

So these are the two cases I saw the first one where I felt I actually was his true love and he isn’t able to forget and and the second one where even though we dated it never felt compared to the first case and turned out to be a complete different scenario.

Hey everyone, looking for some outside perspective on a situation with a guy I have a long history with.
We met online 6 years ago and met up in person about 3 years ago. He always told me he loved me immensely, but due to a lot of complicated timing and personal reasons, I ended up ghosted him about 2 years ago and we had zero contact.
We recently got back in touch, and I found out that during the entire 2 years we weren't speaking, he kept my contact name in his phone saved as "Robin" from How I Met Your Mother.
He just recently changed it back to my actual name, but I’m really trying to process what keeping it as Robin for those two years of total silence actually signifies about his headspace and how he viewed me.
For those who know the show and the Ted/Robin dynamic, what does this play signify? Was I just an idealized "what if," or does it mean something deeper? Would love to hear your thoughts.

We know each other for 6 long years. When in the starting you would just block me and leave me for months and wouldn’t care about how im doing. When you met me for the first time I dont understand how you could possibly think you love me so much. It really was like you just loved me for my body and not me. Yes I ghosted you for lying to me but it was also for the other times when I was in pain and you were never there for me. You have no clue how much I cried for you. And now that you are in a relationship with someone else you said you miss me and you wish things could change. Do you even love her you said she makes you feel good she is your home and you said yesterday that you miss me and you still have feeling for me. So are you lying to me or her?
