    When I was younger I hit a very bad time in my life, I was depressed and it scared everyone. My family fed me pills when they didn't know what else to do. The therapy wasn't helping much at the time, and as soon as I was put on the drug, I stopped seeing the therapist. All the people who I thought would be there for me through thick and thin, forever, gave up on me.

    Never give up on a commitment untill you know for sure that it is ending. I know how sad it is to lose someone that you made that commitment with, especially when they were not really willing to try. I hope that you will find that one special person and that you have a wonderful life together.

    Like you, I also believe strongly in commitment. Its always such a pain to go through the event of finding someone else to replace the one you lost, to learn to love her the as much as she deserves and to trust this person and feel comfortable with her no matter what the situation might be. Add that to the pain of losing someone you've been with for such a long time... Forever doesnt seem childish at all, but sadly its not too common nowadays. But life has shown that every black cloud has a silver lining, things just take time (and I am horribly impatient).



    But I have to tell you. Even though that sucks so bad, if she broke up with you when you were depressed, that just shows that she didnt love you enough to help you in your time of need, thus she isnt worth your love. Thats my opinnion atleast.



    But in a way I still envy you. Ive had quite a few bad relationships, that I find it really hard to be optimistic. Truely a burden to try to think of a good reason to get up every morning.



    Hope you'll be feeling better though, two thumbs up and good luck :) Dont lose your faith of finding the one :P

    Hi elixor,



    Is your CAPS LOCK key stuck?



    To answer your comment, I believe in commitment. When I get into a relationship with someone, I aim for long-term and therefore I try my best to make it work. I don't think it's childish to expect a 5-year relationship to last for the rest of your life if you are both committed to the relationship. However, it appears I was the only one who was committed to making it work.
