kratos: my first post since i changed my profile name, formely coolieno1, love hurts, and it hurts bad, my girlfriend has recently move to altanta in the states, on a five maybe more years to study law, it always have been her dream, before we started dating she told me, about it, and i secretly didn't want it to happen. then a couple of weeks we started getting close, really close then one day she got a letter, from a university in the states that she signed up for after completing her course at the university of the west indies right here, my heart felt a sudden sting of pain when she told me this, and tears came from my eyes when she boarded the plane, when she give me that last hug at the airport i didn't want her to go. the point is never love too strong always, always leave room for disapointment, life is not fair at times, we have decided to end our relationship cause it will hamper with her studies, i know she misses me, an i miss her, i didn't get the chance to tell her how much i love her,
Yes, my friend...sometimes love hurts and life isn't fair. That's all part of life. But at least you had that love while she was there. And she told you of her dream, so you knew, and you loved her anyway.
Would it be impossible for you to join her in the States and help support her while she goes to school? It's not unheard of, you know. Or was the relationship still too new for that possibility of moving here together?
Sometimes we have to take tomorrow as it comes. After all, I know of couple that had just gotten married only for one to die. In my case, we got married to get him on my insurance, not knowing how sick he was, just that he was, and thinking it could be fixed and we'd have time together as husband and wife. We discovered he was Stage IV terminal with cancer instead, and had eight months of marriage, most of it occupied with his dying and my being his nursemaid with a wedding ring.
We never know what tomorrow brings, but that shouldn't stop us from living fully today.
