I've had recurring thoughts about my ex-girlfriend recently. I mean, I know she loves me, but we broke up because both of us aren't ready for this kind of relationship and we aren't meant for each other.

The past few days, in whatever class I have with her, I stare at her. A LOT. She probably notices, but we talked about this before. I might be too clingy to her. I don't feel like I can love anyone (romantically) anymore because I will never meet someone like her again.

Is this normal? I feel like I may be a stalker, but I just want to make sure she's okay. What should I do?

it's normal after a breakup to feel as if we'll never love again, but time takes care of that and we do love again.

Early on I took breakups hard. Sometimes ridiculusly hard and so can relate a little. However time taught me what cathylynn says is true. The feelings will slowly fade in time, but any holding out false hope will only prolong the pain. And at some point it will probably happen again (new love) and it will kinda clear the past relationships off the plate.

The stalking aspect you describe is fairly minor but still stalking. In some cases its kind of like being a sore loser. It is basically always the wrong thing to do, and hurtful to the recipient and will only prolong your unhappiness. So stop hurting someone that gave things a go with you, and stop hurting yourself while you are at it.
