The day life shattered.

[Dark Macc]

After three years of being engaged to the one girl I cared for, we've broken up.

Not that I didn't see it comming, as I had bown so many chances already. I wont even say that I didn't deserve it, I probably did.

This is the first time in three years I have felt so...numb. I've cried all my tears though, I'm strong...I'll step over this little problem and continue on.

So yeah, for the first time in three years I'm single. To be honest, I don't know how to feel...I think I've sworn off relationships for a while.

Why am I posting this here? I want everyone to know that even though I'm hurt, a little heartbroken even, that I want her to be happy...and obviously I couldn't supply that happiness.

Fate. Destiny. Two edges of the same sword. What will mine be? While fate is predetermined, destiny is something that can be changed.

So...I'm wating for someone to take the first shot and say "Gee, I thought online relationships COULD work." And then for you to tell me "I told you so."

First time I tried it, wound up with a major bitch...lasted about a week before she found someone else from the internet that was "me but closer to her", and I'm thankful it didn't last longer, because I would have been sad over nothing. At least you can say you've probably had good experiences with online romance, even though this didn't work out. 3 years is a long time...you had to have had many happy moments in that time for the relationship to have lasted that long. Obviously, it will be hard to get back into a relationship after that, but don't give up. Go out and meet some people and have a good time. Heck, I should me taking my own advice. <img src=smilies/erm.gif>

Uhmmm, I guess the standard "It's better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all" wouldn't be helpful. It never is.

Sorry man, that really sucks... I feel for ya.

so you guys met online or...? did you guys ever meet? where do you both live? i've sworn off online relationships. i've had my fair share of them in the past..... even got married to a guy i had one with. there's nothing quite like being around a person in real life rather than online.

i absolutely adore my boyfriend. chatting online with him (when we're at work or when he's at school) is okay... but he's a total experience. i wouldnt like him nearly as much if i'd met him online as i do having met him in real life. i wont criticize people for having online relationships....... but i'm over and done with them! in most cases i'll suggest warding them off, but they can turn out okay. if you guys were together for 3 yrs, that's pretty good... especially for online.

things'll get better, of course... but it looks like you realize that. good luck, man.
