No one truly knows the heart of another except God himself. Therefore, when we are trying to know if someone’s internal intentions are good or bad towards us, God will actually show us external signs that gives us helpful clues about someone’s internal motives.
A healthy, satisfying relationship is one where two people happily give and take from each other in a way that increases their desire to give and take more from each other. So the term “getting used” can be misleading in some ways because in a healthy relationship, two people should be offering service to other and be benefitted by the other person.
When your memories are filled with images of a certain person, you can begin to wonder what God is trying to say to you through these memories.

If you want a man like that, one of the best things you can do is to be that type of woman to him.
Perhaps you have feelings for someone, and this person seems to have feelings for you too. But for some reason they keep telling you they are not quite ready for a relationship right now?

Psalm 143:5, “I remember the days of old; I meditate on all that you have done; I ponder the work of your hands.” Remembering the past can be extremely helpful as you live in the present. However, like all good things, we can misuse our memories too.
Satan is real. But he’s not going to appear with a pitchfork and devilish grin on his face. Rather, Satan knows the value of secrecy, subtly, and slow attacks that occur in such a way you don’t even notice them.
Was it a lack of faith? If you prayed in a more biblical way, would God have given you that relationship? And if God knew you would not end up with this person, why did he let you fall in love with them to begin with?
