When someone dies, one of the first and most difficult steps in the grieving process is letting go of the body.
Someone dying is not the only thing we grieve for. Sometimes we grieve for the end of a relationship.
Maybe the OP is struggling with this first step of letting go, one that is a painful symbol of finality.
Whilst I appreciate some might find that frustrating in terms of their own method of processing, perhaps creating threads is the OP's way of getting through this difficult time.
KNenagh: I did perceive it as a general statement but well, I quoted you. If you read her threads then maybe you know what others who did comment are talking about.
If someone make threads for people to comment on, they will receive comments. If you perceive this thread as "reaching out", fair enough, I don't and then looking at reasons why to post stuff like this again and again...
I also don't see what this has to do with anyone's relationship status, but no need to defend yourself there.
LOL, this is sad but comical, how far should we hijack this allegedly unwanted thread? why would I have to defend myself? I am still very single.

I don't see giving opinions as hijacking. Will leave you all to it, I'm heading out, have a good week everyone.
Dragos, following your posts on here I do think you're a nice guy and wish you best of luck in meeting someone who makes you happy.
chris27292729: Her personal problem doesn't annoy me.-Posters have adviced her,correctly in my opinion 3 weeks ago.She ask for advice and was given to her.She is back with the same topic,either the result of not listening to the given advices,or not interested to listen to any advices. The NOT listening is annoying.
But Chris, even here in the opening she says exactly that, If she would have listened before to the people. I think it is simply a follow up and she is hurt and also feels bad as she did not listen to what people said. She is learning, so are we all. Like I said. 3 weeks between making a thread sure seems like it is not obsessive. And though I know I will want to reply again I am not going to hijack this thread like this continually. I Hope all the best for her. I would not be surprised if you felt like you had to make a thread or two in the past. Go in peace. I have no reason to argue with you. I said how I felt in my first post. and maybe I empathized with something she wrote so I decided to speak up. I may not be popular, but I am not a pushover either. well, I will leave this to those that feel the need. I will see if she feels like posting again. I hope she does.
In response to: I met my Canadian ex BF here almost 1 year ago and I broke with him because he treated me very bad in Canada when I visited him, he ignored me, lived in bad conditions, now I feel lost...I loved him and I feel guilty about this vecause I did not hear your advices about him, he had many red flags and I continued the relationship and even went to his country and as soon as I came back to my country I stopped contacting him but he told me he really wanted to be with me, I think he is hurt. I do not think I will look for other man in many years anymore, Im devastated:-(
Sorry to hear that Crespo.
You tripped and fell. Now get up, brush yourself and get back on your journey. Don't give up, you never know what will appear at the bend of the road.

You are very bold but not adventurous type... Adventurous types are usually very cool and they could recognize red flags earlier (but naïve ppl would call them paranoia) and they would never regret ever !!!
visited him and ignored red flags ??? wow !!! it is just too bold...
whether its true or not, I hope u get better luck next time, ok ???

Dear Crespo,
I understand your situation. We all crave a relationship. I need to say this because if there were many red flags, and you ignored them, then you need to look into yourself and see that you want a fantasy.
When a love is real, when a relationship is real, you do not ignore the "red flags", there are no "red flags".....
As you your current depression - this too shall pass.
Please use this as a learning experience into yourself. Look in the mirror of your soul and see that you need to change your fantasy ideas of love and romance and relationship for something that is reality.
I am not judging you nor am I judging him. But you need to listen to the spirit that "told" you through "red flags" that this man was not right for you.
Listen to your inner spirit....
Your depression will pass. Just be more realistic about the man you want to be with.
