seeing the latest entries make me feel even more depressed.

lol.

i am one of those, that even after breaking up, still can't let go, and in the end become sms and what not.

some days i am determined to pick myself up n forget all these, but more often than not i panicked at the thought of not having him at all in my life then i start to miss him, hence i start to sms or msn him.

it makes me feel better at that moment, but as reality dawns on me, it makes me feel crappy instead.

he insisted on being best friends, and i seem to be stuck coz for more than 2 years, even if life doesn't revolve ard him, it just sucks how things reminds me of him.

lol i know how u feel. i remember my first break up, it was so hard i nearly ended it all. literally. but hey i was young lol.

for starters, its not WRONG to feel nostalgic about the moments u had. i sometimes recall about happy times with my exes and i share these thoughts with my girl as well. its perfectly fine to smile about these moments and recall how good they were, because they WERE good. you were in love. but always remember just because a fairy tale has ended does not mean a new chapter cannot begin. whenever u recall, smile, feel sad that its over, but also tell yourself, its time for a new chapter. that chapter has ended. the novel of my life goes on. cherish the good times u had, learn from the bad, remember them, smile. and move on.

turn the page

to be honest, i dont understand why it is so hard to turn the page either.

i know i am holding on to the good memories, and that's it.

maybe he's been there for so long that i can't do without him, hence grabbing at the so-called best friend tag he offered me.

@Baronic

yes, i will try..thanks.



@wInnIe

thank you for sharing your experience. maybe my determination is not that great yet, that i'm still feeling stuck in a rut, that i'm still feeling miserable.
i am however taking steps to do what i can. but u definitely showed that it is possible, and i hope to be able to be happy again by myself soon.

dear winnie,

i cried everytime i read ur replies. i guess it's bcoz u hit very close to home.

seeing how strong u've become makes me feel it is so possible.

i'm kinda torn in between being there for him while i can and just enjoy the company, or being miserable and not even wanting to be friends.

he was rather much like a soulmate, and we once said before if it ever didn't work between us we'd agree we'd be best friends.

so to walk out just like that...i don't know if i can do it.

i have accepted the fact that we won't patch back. i will try to live more for myself doing the things that i want, and hopefully i will be happier.

i am happy for u that u found ur happiness smile.gif


@zaini900

hopefully reading the tips on the first page can help u even if a little, just like it does for me.

@debbieyss
ha maybe he rly nth better to do..*shrugs..seems like he gets angry when he see me sick or upset.



@evanesence117
yup maybe because im just too sad...but i tink alot ppl are sick these days so i wont let him take the credit ba..


@wInnIe
yea..im gona focus on myself and get well for now..it doesn't matter anymore i guess. im beginning to feel tt he is a selfish person, always doing things his way..so im not gona bother anymore. i'll take time to grieve if i need to. it is definitely possible to be happy, even if not now.


@DreMAx
thank you for the encouragement...yes i am starting to do things that i like - such as reading and watching movies n dramas that i never have time to watch before...


actually we broke up earlier last month..i went for a holiday to mend the broken heart, but it didn't do me any good. we kept in touch every single day up til now.

so today, i decided i wont initiate contact anymore..not a sms, not on msn..it's never been done before even when we are apart, so it's gona be tough but i'm gona try..how long it last i duno..maybe if i am successful today then maybe the coming days wont be so hard anymore.
it's supposed to be our 31 month anniversary today. hehz.

well, thanks for all the encouragement guys. it definitely makes me feel less alone in dealing with this. being sick isn't making this any easier, but i'm determined to pull this through. *wipe nose

Wish you all the best!

If your conversations ends up as an argument, you should talk less to him though. Stay strong and you will get through it easily.

thank you.
i guess that's the right thing to do.
there's only so much a heart can take i guess.

thank you winnie smile.gif

everything has been difficult lately.. but i am willing to learn again.. willing to do anything to make myself feel better.

winnie's right, its up to us to take care of our heart now.

i read something from another thread recently, but dun remember where. i took up the quote and put it in a notepad though.
it says "Live with people you're happy with. Not with people who you have to make happy. "

i think its true!


besides, i think the first post that says abt when a bird shits on u how long u gona stay there n cry is very true. at some point better clean up the shit and get going.

its not easy, i still stumble at times now, but when i think of these i do try harder to move on. like they say, just do it! tongue.gif

Lost,

don't force yourself to talk to him if you don't feel nice/right. That's what I've learnt. Do something that will make you happy. smile.gif
*
it's not that i force myself..just that i long to do so u noe? hehz.. but instead of stupid2 sit there n wait for his replies on msn i watch my korean dramas now so time pass by faster and i don't feel half as bad already.

he seems to change into a different person..he used to be hardworking but now very slack. duno wads happening, n im kinda worried. but then, im nobody to him alrdy so i don't want to kick up too much fuss. i better work to make myself happier without him i guess.

hehe i do hope we will all feel better.

Hmm...

But when we love someone very much, we do want to make them happy, no?

that's true also, but until when u wana make them happy at the expense of urself?

unless u can make him happy by being happy urself then it's acceptable i feel.
if not den one day ur gona burn out rite?

i know... but dont succumb to the feeling.. each time we succumb into doing something bcoz we "long" for it, we actually defeat our purpose to make ourselves feel better/ to bounce back from the heartache.

just ignore all the feelings.. do what ur MIND (it's the most logical) tells u to..not ur feelings/emotions. Those r evil!
*
its quite true, but sumtimes really cant be helped. haha. the mind says maybe by doing this u will realize more how he dun appreciate u. den how?


QUOTE(debbieyss @ Jan 26 2010, 11:48 PM)
Lost, somehow, if you are the one who initiated the break up, it is so much easy for you to let go, no? I experienced it before.

But when comes to the time someone else initiated the break up, you will find it hard to let go.

Well, nothing... just mumbling... biggrin.gif
*
tts not actually true, i initiated coz he didn't wana compromise at all on an issue tt i felt is important.
hehz.

QUOTE(slushie @ Jan 27 2010, 12:03 AM)
there were  many times i did something bcoz I wanted to do it.. bcoz i felt like doing it..and i just went for it coz that's what my emotions told me so. eventually i ended up feeling worse than before. Felt so stupid to be doing all this like that person even cared.

and actually before doing that, i did tell myself that i wasn't gonna mind however the outcome may be. I'll just do it willingly and without any expectation.

but the truth is... i was really lying myself. I did have some expectation out of it.... how can i not expect the slightest bit of reciprocation from the person i deeply care? i was just in denial.

i think she meant 'that's' smile.gif

hehe sorry debbie and thanks slushie, ya i meant 'that's' smile.gif

slushie i think that's what i'm doing right now, but i try to expect very little and if i want to say something i just say it though, and if it backfired(which is not often coz i say it without thinking much and just being honest most of the time) then it's a reminder to move on every single day.

sometimes it feels like im stepping backwards tho, and it scares me.

seems like he's slacking towards his future goals nowadays, and it kinda worries me that if i let him be he'll be worse off. sometimes it feels like it's no longer my business though, but i guess i still cared enough to keep reminding and pushing him towards those goals.

but like this, how do i move on properly sia. kinda confusing.

i do try to remember back on how i was perfectly happy being single before i met him though. guess i'm looking for that old self again.

its part and parcel of being in love. if u feel the pain, it means u have really loved the person with your heart. mind sharing whats the problem here?

@Peach88

i think time will help..maybe don't go out with them? or u can always see til u sick n wana move on. it depends on u really..


@slushie

heys, ur not alone. i feel the same, but just remind urself that u are all u have now, and just do sumthin else to keep ur mind off it.



just to share with u guys,
a fren asked me today - have u seen anyone who actually stayed brokenhearted for 1 person for the rest of his/her life? of coz, movies not counted.

i guess it's true. nobody that i know stays brokenhearted forever. it will take time no doubt, but time do heal they say.

even those that says it was so bad end up married even.

so there's still hope. just pick up the pieces for now. that's all we can do.

Those are very common but not all guys are able to show me they have it, even they do, but there's no feelings involved which also useless.

Matured isn't being dull but the thinking wise which will make me feel no worries about a lot of things. A matured guy knows how to carry himself out. Being a man but not a little boy.

Isn't guy shall put career first? A man without career makes me feel insecure. It does not matter if he is working hard for more money or working hard for himself. Hardworking does not mean to only work hard in the office, as long as that person is not a lazy pig to sleep and eat everyday at home will do. A smart person knows how to work smart and hard for own career.

i agree on this part.

i believe in balance though, if a guy works hard(or perhaps work smart), he should know how to balance his time and make time to spend with his loved ones. but seems like alot of guys can't really do this. sweat.gif
