Nope. What's meant for you will never pass you by.. if 1 is not for you, let go and another better will come your way soon enough.

Nope. Feelings always go away eventually.

Lliam · Answer

Yes.
I still have fond memories of the girlfriends I had when I was young. I got over them, but sill...

There was one girl, though. Petra was 30 when we met. I was 36. We wound up living together for almost two years. I loved her with my heart and soul; more than anyone ever. She loved me, too. She was my ideal.

As it turned out, we could not be life-long partners and separated for reasons that are too complicated to explain but had nothing to do with cheating or anything mean. We still loved each other.

Separating from her was the most agonizing thing I have ever experienced in my life. For months I had a constant feeling of having been kicked in the guts. Sometimes I was almost nauseous. When I was alone, I would sometime curl up and bawl.

It took a year for me to pull myself together and move on with my life.

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

When I was about 56 or so, Petra found me on Facebook. We became FB friends and even spoke a few times on the phone. Her voice was the same. My heart melted and soared at the same time.

She was living in another part of the country and had not married. I was overjoyed to know what was up to, to see her posts on FB, and to know that she was thriving and pursuing her dreams.

Five years later, I read that she had died from a sudden medical problem at the age of 55. My heart shattered.

Even though we couldn't spend our lives together. I never stopped thinking about her. She's always on my mind. I cherish her in my heart. I will always love her and will never forget her.

Oddly, my undying love for Petra doesn't diminish the love I have for my wonderful wife. We've been happily married now for almost 27 years, had LOTS of fun, and built a wonderful life together. She's my perfect life partner.

One girl I thought we might get closer than we did. I'm having problems of thinking of her from time to time even tho I know she may not like me that way. Heck, she barely talks to be, but then randomly get messages from her saying she misses me. I don't get it at all.

dustybiker2 · Answer

Are we supposed to? I think we take them with us. Lessons learned. The love. All of it. Not every relationship will last. Lovers. Friends. It seems we have them when we need them, or they need us.

DishLady · Answer

No. There's no other option. You have to move on. However, if the overall experience was good then some of the good memories come back on occasion.

I've never 'gotten over' any of my ex-girlfriends. They were all special in some way.

I had a couple of relationships that I still think about. I feel like they are somehow still an open wound.

Fireguy17 · Answer

a couple have taken a while to get over. But I have. There are quiet times I might wonder what if...

JHAYES317 · Answer

I mean there’s certainly girls I’m bitterly disappointed that ghosted me that I think about on occasion…but I wouldn’t say I’m obsessed with them because I never message them anymore…

Anonymous · Answer

If I just knew the answer to this, I would have been happy. I don’t know If I moved on because it was years ago, I don’t think about her but deep down It changed me. I just don’t know.

Anonymous · Answer

Yeah I got one ex that took me several years to get over. But in the last year or so I rarely think about her.

Lessthanaveragr · Answer

I've never gotten over the horrible things my girlfriend had done to me. Only gotten around it for the kids.

serious_miss419 · Answer

Yes. It takes time & dedication. Sucks for a bit at the beginning but with time and self care, it’ll be a thing of the past.

Yes, but I still married someone else and I’m glad I didn’t wait for her to come around and reciprocate those feelings.
