Don’t worry. I’m fine. I promise. I just wanted this for the next time I forget and miss someone who doesn’t even seem to remember how much he once loved me. Someone who is afraid of love and has nothing left to offer me. Someone who threw away his soulmate because he needs time.
I know how precious and special love is. I know if it matters, it’s worth fighting for. But you can’t be the only one fighting. So when someone gives up on you and breaks your heart? Remember that they are the ones that are worse off. Because they had a pure and true love and they threw it away. They have to live with that.
Some people choose to waste years of their life just waiting patiently. They think this makes them good and honorable. At some point, living in denial and refusing to see the truth is just cowardly. But the rest of us know life is just way too short to live in a web of lies we tell ourselves. We know love is all that matters. And a life without love is no life at all. Be brave and follow your heart, no matter where it takes you.
I can totally relate to all 10 things on your list. I kept trying to make him happy for over 22 years. But we have to all come to realize that we can’t transform a person… only God can. Thanks for sharing this and God bless you!

I wasted 23 years on a marriage I didn’t want, taking emotional abuse all because I was afraid I was not good enough for anyone else. I am glad to be out and have 3 wonderful children, but I wish I hadn’t wasted my life on that sorry SOB.

Exactly what I believe. Life is too short to deny something as rare as true love. But it doesn’t work if you are the only one willing. I feel this. Went straight to my heart.

Thanks! It’s sad. He acknowledges its true love n we’re soulmates, whatever the hell that means lol. Just has no idea what to do with it. So he no longer has me. Hugs to u xo

Yeah, I am dealing with being in love with a man who is also in love with me, but last minute he decided he needed to try to make his marriage work. But he’s still in love with me. It’s frustrating. My thought process is that if it’s meant to be, we’ll eventually be together. But in the meantime I have to learn to let go and move forward. Love to you.
