Venting Why am I worried about the people who left me?

[TheCallOfTheStars]

A lot of people in my life abandoned me for a reason so why am I still so worried about them? I worry about their daily lives and problems even though I know they're doing just fine and dandy. In fact, they'd probably be happier if I caught the bus because they'd be the types to actively wish for my demise.
And I'm especially worried for my ex. She left for a reason but I feel like she's the only person that will end up worse without me. I'm always filled with an irrational fear that she got sent to the hospital again or worse, all because I can't be there to check on her or keep her grounded in reality.
She left me, so why am I still so worried sick about her, as well as the many others who left me before?

Perhaps you still have some affection for those people or associate them with good times. When we're stuck and sad in life, we tend to overthink everything, and your inability to get over certain people must stem from that; at least, that's what happened to me. You're supposed to stop caring once you start moving forward and feeling happy with yourself.
