Has heartbreak changed you?

[Danny_dan92]

It has for me.


Each time it did, I don’t think I will ever be the same way again.

Yes

No

[ShadezMcgee]

It did. It is imperative that a man gets his heartbroken so they learn and grow stronger for themselves and the others around them.

Now in terms of it being broken by a woman, depending on how it happened it can really mess with them down the line and spoil it for other women as well.

In my case, and I still deal with this, I learned that being vulnerable and sharing how I felt was a mistake when it comes to women. The first one who broke my heart took advantage of that and used it against me before the split. To this day I am never vulnerable or share how I feel with my current girlfriend. I know that is not fair to her because I am using the past as an assumption for her behavior, but it is something that has left a hard impact on me.

No, I don't allow the world to change me, the only changes I've made molded me to a better person, I guess it would all depend on what type of changes you are asking about.

Yep. I learned a lot from each heartbreak in order to better myself. I don't hold grudges towards the people that broke my heart though. I just acknowledged that they've hurt me but it has nothing to do with who I am as a person and more about who they are lol I do look back on my mistakes as well, I'm sure I've broken a few hearts here and there but hey I'll move on and learn to be better

[naartjie]

Yes but I’ve learnt to let go and move on.
I have a lot of love to give, I’m a soft person so as much as I get hurt, I still press on in hopes to find my love.

[Danny_dan92]

Just don’t live for that

[naartjie]

Yes of course. I still enjoy life and have so many things to keep me busy. I can only hope for a husband and children some day though.

[Danny_dan92]

You’re young. You have time

[naartjie]

I think i feel more overwhelmed being single at my age when majority of my friends back home are engaged, have a kid or just got married to their high school sweetheart. Then here i am, can’t find a guy. Most never wanted that life where as I’ve said since I was like 10 that I want to be a mother and wife some day.

[Danny_dan92]

Just know that most high school sweetheart relationships fail….

Not wishing anything bad for your friends but statistics don’t lie.

You only feel the way you do due to feeling “left out” don’t feel that way.

At the end of the day view it from a glass half full perspective, there is no way you’re currently going to be cheated on etc.

[naartjie]

This is true, I need to remind myself of that, rather be alone then get cheated on.

[Danny_dan92]

Now you’re thinking

Every true heart break does. We need to become different people, because proceeding as we where always leads back to the heartache. So we change, per force.

I always saw it as a part of myself being chromed, becoming hard as steal and then locked away inside.

It's best not to have too many heartbreaks. With each one, caution should increase.

[GuyAnswersGirls123]

I'd say so. Generally for the better though. The process of recovery made me try a whole bunch of new things I never tried before as well as resurrect some old hobbies.

[BonzoInBitburg]

Yes but not in a bad way. Regroup, work on yourself and grow. People who don't make changes after heartbreak just end up repeating their mistakes

[NathanDavis]

never been heartbroken... but I am sure it would

every relationship and person in my life has changed me... vastly for the good, though

[strateguy632]

[DagonbroughtMehere]
