Still Trapped..in Love With My Ex

I thought I was the only one feeling like this... I realize I'm probably too late to be of any help, since this is from 2009, but you might like to know that this came as a help to me. I really truly thought I was the only one wondering... and for the same reasons. Its not that there aren't enough interesting people out there... its just, that feeling of being warm, safe, whole. Home. Of someone loving us that much, being almost our whole family, our life. The smell of our persons skin, the familiar touch, all the small things are what I just can't see myself ever forgetting, ever replacing. But now I'm thinking, if so many people feel exactly like this, we can't all be miserable forever right? No one would ever find love again if this would make it impossible, right? So just be strong everyone out there. Cry your eyes out (I sure am doing so), store away or toss everything that was a symbol of your relationships, hurt all you must hurt for I'm told there's no healthy way of skipping this part, and just try to be positive... At least this is what I'm trying to do. I feel like such a baby not knowing what to expect of a break up... first real one. I'm not that young, but we started out young... been together 5 years. Deviating from point. Point is: if so many people feel like this and so many people get over it and often even find themselves in situations they like better... there's no reason why we won't right? Go us!

How ever it was that split you two apart is the past now. As many responses are made to your sad love story, the only person who is going to have the answers is you. picturesof you said it well when you have to feel the pain until you find a greater and deeper faith. I would like to add that no two loves will ever b the same. they are unique in every way. Don't try to find another that has those common qualities as the last one because it may be a repeat.



As for saying you will not get her back, think about the faith you had in this relationship, if she sees and feels that it was good too, you never know. But in the mean time think the worst and hope for the best

I feel the same way. The woman I am in love with is in a relationship, though. She left her for awhile, but has gone back. I don't feel like I will ever meet anyone that can match the love she gives me, even as a friend, or anyone that I can make such a soul connection with.

You have to feel the pain until you find a greater and deeper faith that you are a wonderful and beautiful person without her and you deserve the greatest love there is.
