Have you ever encountered someone who reminds you of your ex and not in a good way? This is Usher’s song U Remind Me and we are talking about it. Did Usher have good boundaries in this song? Do you have good boundaries when situations like this happen to you? Or do you potentially just keep dating the same or similar people over and over again?
