Pasticide 

A term evolved after a conversation between two lovers discussing the unwanted resurgence of one of their ex partners; who seemingly simply refuses to go away. 'Pasticide' describes the feeling of frustration for the person who ended the relationship; but still must deal with their ex partner's presence in their life. It represents the inability to get rid of something toxic in your life from the past and the affect it has on the individual dealing with it.
