There is one girlfriend named Petra who I will never stop loving and will never forget.
We lived together for over a year when I was 37 and she was 30. I had other girlfriends from the time I was 16, but Petra is the first one I loved with my heart and soul.

Circumstances forced us to separate. Being without her was the greatest pain I had ever experienced. It took me a year to pull myself together and start dating again.

I met my future wife when I was 40 and we got married two years later.

Petra found me on Facebook 20 years after we last saw each other. We even spoke on the phone a few times. She was living out of state and I was just happy to be in contact, to know what she was up to, and to know that she was doing well.

About five year later, I read that she had died from a sudden medical problem at the age of 56. I was shattered.

I know we were not destined to spend the rest of our lives together and accepted that. I love my wife deeply. But I think of Petra a lot. Our time together was a peak moment in my life. I'm incredibly grateful to her.

not really no... with two of them (the earlier) I am best friends with, today so, for the last teen years or so I do see them as that, my friends

and with the later two, I am in friendly terms with... I've even been chatting with one of them most of today and yeah, same feeling... very friendly and casual and catching up about some pertinent issues we have in common, nothing more than that... lol

I do not have unresolved issues from any relationship, managed to get closure and on mutual terms too, cycles were completed, pretty much

He's mostly gone, but he does occasionally pop up if I'm angry since he's one of the reasons I have the emotional and mental issues I suffer from

Yeah, he’s now my brother in-law. Lol

TheorionMage · Answer

Very special circumstances... FORTY FRICKIN YEARS!!!
Divorced an apathetic first wife to 'roll those dice'

Five tumultuous passionate years...
STILL e-mail one another from time-to-time
despite we each re-married, and she's divorced;
I'm in Fla. she's living up in Vermont.

The relationship began 1982 with Alan O'Day's 'Undercover Angel' and
lately taunted her with the 'Powers-that-be's provoking
Rod Stewart's latest...
"One MORE Time for Old Time's Sake" ~

SOME love's leave an indelible mark;
"what is the sound of ONE hand clapping?"

SnowedIn · Answer

Very much so. We probably would be married with children living in the same town as our high school. Life intervened twice.

We still talk though and we're both devoted to our respective spouses and kids and families and lives, but memory is a powerful and fickle thing.

TCredo · Answer

my college girlfriend - we dated for 5 years. the on and off fighting got to be too much. she was a hot headed Italian American and me a stubborn (especially back then) Irish American lol... but the sex was awesome... 30 years later I still think of her when I masturbate. I fortunately have a HD quality memory bank :)

AmeerX · Answer

For me it is this tomboy people used to call. She got married. I was not boyfriend just crush and confession. She respected me and made me happy to know she will remember me. I don't think any girl European or even the most beautiful Miss universe candidate could compare to that girl. God I love you God for making her and letting me see her, befriend her, and then making her disappear from my eyes and then coming back in front of me. I mistakenly prayed one day when I saw her going away prior to this that, God, please 🥺 make her husband be nice and caring even if that man is not me. And God listened to me out of all the times I ever prayed for anything.

It was the only time I really let someone break a piece of my heart and take it with them.

dolemite89 · Answer

i had this one back college i still think about sometimes that was just awesome. She was the type that when other people met her they’d say oh she’s one of the good ones hang on to this one. We ended amicably cuz we wanted different things long term but it was such a good experience overall. In the movie the Bronx tale, the character Sonny said that you’re only allowed three great women in your life and she was definitely one of mine.

mobiusforniner · Answer

Yes. I've gone through a few breakups in my life. The last one still haunts me and I dream and think of her daily. Dont know why. Something about her exposed my deepest insecurities and the mere thought of her causes my chest to clench and i sometimes I privately weep about her memory. Sucks, actually.

JPresidente · Answer

I do but it’s been a while. We had zero in common except for great sex. She knew had to drive a man crazy and push all the right buttons. I miss that for sure but I don’t miss the conflicts we had and some other unredeeming qualities.

Anonymous · Answer

Just one guy I was with, he had a real big dick but was a complete asshole. I still have a plaster moulded dildo of his big dick I sometimes use when he's away

Redstang88 · Answer

Yeah, last ex really was something special. I don’t buy the whole soulmate thing but I do think we only get a limited few chances at real, genuine love. It was totally the wrong timing for both of us, we both blew it and hurt each other and never really got closure either.

Sucks knowing that a different time, different place I think we could’ve had something great

Alex8736 · Answer

there will always be that toxic narcissist stalker ex who is like a herpe where an extended period of time passes and you have them completely out of sight out of mind then BOOM they just randomly show up out of left field

Razp_Sorbet · Answer

I think about a couple of my ex's not because I'm not over them but because trauma is a funny thing like that.

DiegoO · Answer

I still think about my ex, but I don idealize anymore what I had with her. What I do is rethink all what we lived together and how nothing could have been any better.

Bricealan · Answer

Don't we all have one of those? Wonder what became of them? Do they think about me?

Charlesbrandonf · Answer

I have I don’t feel any intimacy or sensual but a good friend that I can count.

Sparkie460 · Answer

Yes. We separated on good terms. We still see each other from time to time. We were both each other's first date

abc3643 · Answer

Of course, I do. My loss of her has been haunting me every day (and often nights) for the past 31 years. Only the sweet release of death (or really good anesthesia) can salve that eternal pain.

Coden7 · Answer

Yeah. We had good chemistry, but overall different values. Our breakup was a bummer, but inevitable.

Petlover48 · Answer

Yeah I came out of a relationship a month ago, but I’m recovering and I think I’ll be over it soon :)

LiamJHayden · Answer

No. Maybe I'm just emotionally shallow, but I have not experienced this.

9214xs · Answer

For me it’s maybe someone that I didn’t date but was interested in me and I wonder what could have been.

AimeeKyle · Answer

I did a long time ago. It was a girl I dated in college. She was amazing, smart, beautiful….. we had an unusual, ghosting like ending that never made sense. It took me a little over a decade to get to a point where I rarely thought about her.

big_ben_007 · Answer

All. The. Time. I've never told them. But who knows. Maybe one day i will.

slatyb · Answer

I have a few. I don't dream of getting back together with them but I wouldn't mind taking to them.

Justneedtokno · Answer

Not anymore I’m leaving it in 2023 and deleting numbers and everything

maximumpower · Answer

From time to time, yes. But then I'm reminded that she's making someone else miserable.

KerriH · Answer

I don't think about them. If you do, there's something wrong
