RobbieM: I'm going to brutally honest and say i have been affected by the outcome of a couple of relationships, and not for the better.
It remains to be seen if i can fully come to terms what has happened to me as a result.
Now i take every day as it comes, good bad or indifferent.
I'd like to think i might meet people who will just consider me a friend without asking too much of me, but sadly some people aren't like that so i might not ever be able to do the full relationship thing ever again.
There's a limit to how much kicking a human being to take emotionally, and i think i took my last emotional battering.
Thus happy people only, or at least those in search of it because i have had grief upto my eyebrows.
Thats probably the best way to go..friends first and foremost..maybe sometimes people try to rush into relationships without exploring whether or not they could actually be friends..the people I know in the best relationships all say their partner is their best friend!
solsticemoon: So really, much as we would like to believe we can forgive and forget, or simply move on...Can we?
Hello and i ask that same question all the time,it is difficult but we have to,The L word has a very hefty price and i have to say i paid one,but we have to pick ourselves up and move on-it is just part of life,not all the books and groups can clear your mind of the pain of a break up or haveing a broken heart,there is someone out there that will make it all go away we just have to stay strong,some people get over it quick but they are the ones who have had alot of relationships in such a short time and have experience getting over it.They have a cycle.
OMGosh! I sure HOPE past relationships affect future one! Who wants to make those old mistakes over and over and over again!
Each relationship teaches me something about myself, what I want, what I need, what I'm willing to put up with, what I'm not... I've even learned that some of the things I thought I wanted weren't really that important. So, yes, the past affects the future, and if you're wise, you'll use it to your advantage.
