Loved someone more than oxygen but knew it was time to quit trying to make things work?
I recently made an 11 hour drive to visit an ex. We were trying to 'make things work' again. But after I got home everything fell apart. So as I learn to let go I cant help but be a little..okay alot..heartbroken at letting the person I saw as 'the one' walk out of my life. Any mingler's been here? |

Everyone has been there at least once...I think

Look, so many have been where you are! I have...broken-hearted. But you'll survive...and you'll thrive, again. After a month-long pity party, I watched my diet, exercised. There's no right way...but try your best to love yourself first...then you can love someone else. And if it's not you ex...it will be someone better!

It took many years for me to realize what I had walked away from. I guess beer drinking and looking for the BBD (bigger,better,deal)makes the years pass too quickly. I don't think I would drive 11 hours for a let's see what happens, but I don't know all the facts. You took a risk and that takes alot. You are free to move on now knowing that you tried all that you needed to.

Any mingler's been here? Love fundamentally can't work in this way, which is why I firmly believe that it simply does not and cannot exist for a majority of people...of course I'm wrong, and apparently it is because I'm young...of course that entire ideology is terrible but no one listens to logic anymore. Look at it this way: Survival equals food plus water plus shelter, I've found trying to be in a relationship to hinder survival more than it is already hindered by all of the things that already accomplish the same thing. More simple, love is just not what it used to be and further it is not useful in any way, shape, or form...well, unless you NEED someone, which then I would suggest seeing someone to talk about the codependency issue. Flame on! |

No,, never loved anyone more than oxygen,,,, THATS pretty serious...
I have had to walk away from someone I loved because they were no good for me though. You meet new people, you move on,, but that person will always have a place in your heart(as they should). |

I'm a BIG fan of oxygen, would likely qualify as an Oxygen Groupie ...
That said ... Nothing hurts worse than heartbreak, and there are so many varieties in a lifetime; the worst being deaths, suffering for your child and romantic endings. The strangest part of heartbreaks??? They can literally be felt directly in the area the heart is located in. Nothing makes one cry on their knees of the wailing chamber quite like it ... ... ... I wish you a speedy recovery and mended heart, following the obligatory rite of the grief passage ... Hang in there, soldier! |

To have the capacity to love, with complete abandon.....every fibre of your essence devoted to Love.
Such a rare gift you are... .....precious. |
|
|
|
Been there, done it...and would do it again, NOTHING WORST THAN DOUBT.

Nope, X are Xed
Not worth trying. Heart broken will heal fast if you will accept your predicament now and not linger on the past or in denial... (De nile is only in Egypt) and you can't change it.. Good luck to you! |

Thank you to those who understand where Im coming from.
Ill be fine. I always am. Im pretty resilient. But it doesnt stop the constant aching in the place where I once thought love belonged. Ill love again, Im sure of it. Maybe just not so recklessly next time. Thanks again guys. I knew minglers would understand. |
