Someone's got the bitter taste of the grapes of wrath in his mouth.

 

I would have rather not loved. No one will ever measure up. And the next person will never give you that feeling again. Honestly, I don't even have the desire to look for it or even attempt it. I thought I was ready to date again...tried it.....HELL NO! If I can't have that true, once in a lifetime, never thought that those feelings could exist...then I don't want anything. I will ALWAYS be comparing everyone to that person, whether I try to or not.....So, I wish that I didn't have that for a comparison at all.

 

Everything (the good and the bad) is a learning experience.

 

I'm in exactly the same situation as you and feel the same way. I cannot force myself to settle for someone or lower my standards...
It's been a long time since me and her went our seperate ways but to this day I haven't met anyone who would even come close to making me feel the way she did....

 

you're pathetically predictable


Tragically true

Where is Ric to chime in with a more heartwarming note?

 

totally not funny.

 

God, in His wisdom grows ours faith through trials and some of those trials are beautiful, loving, and deep relationships. Once we are truly burnt to nothingness emotionally, only then He can rebuild our capacity for loving that ONE special person He has ALWAYS had for us.

And Brandi, you, as I, know that you cannot like, date, nor love on ground you have shared with another. You must forgo the familar and seek God's direction completely OUTSIDE of the world you and I created...it's the only way...I promise...and God bless you!

 

wasnt supposed to be

 

I think he was aiming that at Kurt because KB can be pretty predictable at times and when dealing with certain subjects.

 

Please keep your religious rambling to yourself or at least out of this forum, thanks.

 

I'm usually rather predictable on a few topics.

 

oh on never finding a person that will love you the same again. How do you know that person you were in love with loved you to the greatest extent? What if you could be loved more then this person gave you?

I have been in love about 5 years ago and have seriously dated 2 girls since then but havent felt the same thing. That doesnt mean give up and ull never find someone as good as your first love. Ive been single for almost 3 years and I'm still waiting. No reason to have to settle for something you dont want. There are tons of ppl you could end up with and you probably havent met some of them yet. It just takes time....no reason to give up.

 

 

Well put.

IMO, people always find love. And love lost does not mean that you won't again.

 

Honestly, I hope that one day you read this again and realize that you were wrong.

 

128 posts and all you do is open your mouth with a closed mind...your lack of God's power in your life will be changed some day...I'll pray for you...

 

I agree. Though I miss her, I still think about all the good times (if you know what I mean). It is all about the sex.

 

No having a broken heart sucks. I rather not love then go through the pain of heartbreak.

 

I agree but i think its more like love finds you. They always say you find that special someone when your not looking at all

 

Whoever said "It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all." was either very wrong, or had never been through the pain of heartbreak.

 

You have NO RIGHT to tell me or teach me anything. You took the COWARD'S way out. You didn't discuss anything with me....just sent me a text message. I PROMISE you that God doesn't teach cowardness anywhere in the bible, Rick.

 

I guess I missed what happened between DarkSithGirl and DarkSithCL.

 

If nothing else, she stopped using the orange text.

P.S. Maybe time to ask Soopa, Astro or Scrib for a name change?

 

 

That makes 12333497654483 of us.

 

Very true Grasshopper. That's the story of me and my wife.

 

OK, thought it was just me.

 

I don't know the whole story, but from what I have gathered from some of their posts - the relationship became on-again, off-again for a while and he finally called it off. Now she feels she was led on and betrayed and it appears as if she may have lost some faith.

I could be wrong and would appreciate any additions or corrections.

 

 

Please stop the drama.

 

 

What he did after being together for 5 years, is send a text message and told me not to call him again. I can appreciate the fact that a person wants to end a relationshipk that is not what I have a problem with. What I have a problem with is, everything that we have been through and shared ( which is more than I would ever give or forgive anyone else in this lifetime) he doesn't have the decency or courage to do it in person when I was just in Houston 2 days before. At the very least, call and say it. DO NOT BE A COWARD, and then try to hide behind the bible. I haven't not lost any faith at all. What I have lost is any respect for men and their supposed good intentions and honesty.

 

That sucks. Sounds like you have a great reason to find someone else though. As much as you've lost all respect for men, the next one REALLY couldn't be that bad. Or at least you know a lot more now and you'll be a lot more cautious the next time around.

 

I wouldnt even know what to say on this..
I truely have loved someone...we are no longer together and it hurts more knowing someone you loved would hurt you.. I guess it all depends on the situation!
Id almost would rather not to love so there would never be any hurt like the hurt I have experienced..

 

I was going to say it depended on the situation.. if it was like a mutual break up or just, it didnt work out, then id say yes better to love and lost than never love at all

but if it was something horrible like, your significant other dies, or hurts you so badly youre scarred for life, fuck that.

 

I think its better to have loved. And I know how bad that shit can hurt too. The only girl I've loved and who supposedly loved me and talked about how she wanted to marry me and who I shared everything with dumped me last year right after she got back in town from her summer job, before she even made it home mind you, and then was dating a guy she had worked with two days later (umm....so yeah). This girl, who I had thought was the sweetest person in the world then went on to purposefully try to tear me apart as one day not long after the breakup she called me to tell me that she thought I had no personality, no sense of humor, that nobody liked me ect. The hardest part wasn't losing someone I loved more than anything, it was the total mindfuck of suddenly finding out the person you were in love with was a lot different than you thought and the shock that they would intentionally try to knife you as deep as they could. The point of saying all that is that although I was completely fucked up for a long time I have since dated other girls and I'm doing alright really. Single and looking forward to the future fully able to love again. And hey, I learned a lot.

This is one of my favorite quotes and I think its appropriate:

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.

 

Thanks for all your input guys and girls.

 

You can be mad as you want with me, but I think it takes more balls to end a relationship with someone you really care about before it becomes something you hate. God supports our free will to choose, just as others should...

And the so called "coward" you are so determined to discredit here on Acurazine, told you over FOUR years ago that what we were involved in was not right...I wanted to end it back then...I know you remember...I finally reallized it never was and never could be right for both of us. And furthermore...God just could'nt bless it because of the way we chose to start it...

I was tired of being so outside of His will that I could never make the plans for either of our lives work out...now, things are not great, but damn near...this is better for both of us...one day you'll thank God I was in your life and also thank Him that I'm gone. Anyway, this is better discussed between us, not here for the world to see, so call me if you want to talk...later, Rick

I'm glad you brought it up...excellent topic!

 

No problem
BTW, God called me yesterday and he asked me to tell you to stop referring to him in all of your posts, he's quite bothered by this. He also said you should peel that sticker "What would Jesus do?" off your bumper at your earliest convenience.
