Is there a person from your romantic past who broke your heart so badly that it's never been able to heal?

Every pain goes away if you give it enough time, every wound heals itself over time, otherwise people wouldn't be able to move on with a tragedy they faced in their past. If you are in such a situation, give it a bit more time. Stay away from things, people that remind you of that pain. Do things with friends. The key is to keep yourself busy with friends, things and such.

Yes - the pain never goes away completely, but it definitely lessens over time. I went out with someone for two years during high school and, in hindsight, while I wouldn't say that I loved him, I definitely cared for him. I still do, just to a much lesser degree.

I met this guy Eric through a friend. We got together and hit it off really well. I fell completely in love with him. He told me he loved me back. I was about to move in with him and we were gonna get married in June of 2008. Well I stopped hearing from him and every time I tried to contact him he would ignore me. So one day I call and a girl answers. She tells me that I need to stop calling Eric because he has another girlfriend. Turns out he was cheating on me for a while before we split up. I have been thinking a lot about him here lately and I miss him a lot. I still love him. Will I ever get over him?

There was this guy that I cared a lot about. He made me dizzy in a good way. I cared about him a lot. He and I liked each other so much and then, one day he decided he didn't like me as much anymore. He didn't say it in so many words but his actions proved this to be fact. It took some time for me to convince myself that this relationship wasn't going to work.

I can't lie. If I think about him long enough, I can remember that sad feeling.

I don't think you ever really get over something, I think it just moves to a locked door in the back of the mind. Every now and again, you can pick the lock and get in but it's not wise. Some things are best left alone. You can't find new joy chasing ghost.

It may feel that way at the beginning - and it may take a long time (I was alone for 5 years after a serious relationship) but eventualy you will be able to move on.

Im only 17, but I fell in love for the 1st time wen I was 15. I gave him my whole heart and of course I thought that it would be forever (I guess that's what everybody thinks when they're in love). But then bam! One day he leaves me cause his ex wanted to be with him again.

it truly broke my heart. it took me about 2 years to get ovr him completely. especially wen I met a guy that helped me forget. I never thought that I would fall inlove again. and now, I gave my whole heart again to this new guy, but then he also broke it. now, I'm thinking again that I can never love another guy in my life evr again. I feel yah gurl. its hard, but we just have to accept it. cause maybe, just mayb, he left for sumthing much better to come along.

Yes. I think when you truly care for somebody, there will always be a small part of you that doesn't heal completely from breaking up with them. That goes for girls, I don't know about guys.

I know that my first serious boyfriend of five years who I first met when I was sixteen truly broke my heart. He left me for somebody at his work. It took an extremely long time to get over him, and I am, to this day, still a little guarded about giving my whole heart away in new relationships.

I have not but it sure feels like it after a break up. There was one in particular that took me two years to get over and I never thought I would. I refuse to let any past relationships scar future ones to the point where I can recognize it. That's not to say that I don't have baggage caused by history that I'm not even aware of, though. Hope that helps, not sure if it makes any sense!

A Guy Answered I'd say either try and get off the subject of that or you could give her a bit of licking or shoving of the finger in her vagina would satisfy her sexual needs hopefully she won't ask for more.
