Do you have a one that got away story (I'm sure most do)?

[Extraterrestrial1999]

Yeah

Nah

They got away, but they came back to me somehow

[Zack-Bann]

She was too much too soon for me
I was young and foolish
She was my age but had lived through far more traumatic experiences that hardened her


I loved her in ways that would keep you up at night unable to get a minute of sleep


But it never happened


Then life decided to give me my dose of tough love


And afterwards brought her back into my life in a new context


It’s insane: I don’t love her anymore.
We were 2 completely different people in a completely different place and a completely different times


We’re good friends now but I can’t bring myself to picture anything happened at this point


Life has a sense of irony

Yeah there was one afternoon when I was fishing in a sort of lagoon type inlet from the coast and I got a huge bite which almost pulled me into the water. I managed to calm it and reeled it in. I didn’t have a net and this fish was huge. It took all my strength to yank it up onto the pier and I put in such effort that my last surge of strength to get it out of the water and up onto the pier was a bit too much and I accidentally flung it too hard and it hit the boardwalk behind me and splashed back into the water over the other side.

The other blokes all laughed and wouldn’t let me live it down for the rest of the afternoon even though I caught lots more fish. But none as big as that one.

Yes! But we’re dating now so yay. When we first met we were both in a relationship, and he’s older (by three years) but we immediately clicked, it felt like he was my long lost twin and that he can read my mind.

I actually ended up breaking up with my ex because he was moving to another state, the other guy and I stayed as friends but we were having trouble denying our intense chemistry. I decided to cut all contact with him out of respect for his relationship. I kept thinking about him and all the what ifs until last year we accidentally meet again. We’ve been dating for a year now and it’s better than I expected.

Men get away all the time. They don't want a girl that genuinely loves them. They cry, bitch, and moan in front of her about their girlfriends, knowing that they should've went to the girl who was there for them in the first place. Males won't tell you, but they all secretly care about your looks and your wallet.

The 5th time it happened, I stopped being nice to males. They all just friendzone you, when you want to fuck them. Yet they all want sex, unless you're fat and unattractive. That's when I learned to be an alpha female.

[VIVANT]

🔁

I honestly never sorted out WHICH one of us got away 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes from my past , but unfortunately I couldn’t find her on social media , she is probably married with kids’ by now

[Anonymous]

Does it still count if you didn't ever really have a chance with the lady? Because if I needed to have a chance with her, I only have 1. But, I have 3 different women that I really wish something would have happened with.

• A girl in high school that I still think we would have made a fantastic couple, but the shit just got weird for a variety of reasons; mostly that she wasn't interested in me and communicated that fact; I just wasn't getting the message.
• A girl in college that I was extremely attracted to, but she did not like me at all.
• A girl I was talking with a for awhile who acknowledged that we would make a great couple but refused to date me because of some emotional damage from her past.

[PeachyPie93]

Nope.. there was once a guy I loved deeply (I knew him since I was 19) and would have done anything for but he wasn't ready to date lol more like he just wasn't ready to date me.. Which just means all the times he had said he loved me were only lies, and he said it almost everyday for 8 months.. He didn't get away because I never had him. I just wish he would apologize and admit he was a dickhead, so I could stop blaming myself for it.

[FunkyMonkee]

I was at a flea market 3 blocks from my house one afternoon and some woman was selling 78's. I should've just grabbed the whole lot but, I guess I was a bit skint and started looking through for just the ones I wanted. I saw that she had one or two Vogue picture discs and I put those aside to buy (they were a quarter @) then, some other old woman came over and was looking at the 78''s, spotted the two I put aside and SHE bought them before I could say or do anything!!

[exitseven]

Yes, I was too afraid to make a move on her. The next thing I knew I heard she got married.

[MrChinaski]

Not ones that got away. But yes there are women I would prefer to be closer to.

[DrPepper12]

Who doesn't have that flight of fancy "what if?"

[zagor]

Yeah but I never really had them; I wasn't interested in dating at the time.

[blackeagle007]

Long time ago. Had a chance but balked out. It is what it is

[Anonymous]

Well, all of my loves were unrequited, so I guess... all of them got away :(

[NathanDavis]

hmm... in a way, I went away... lol

[sage2021]

But I was the one who got away!!🙂

[NicholasRedone]

Too many ✋🏻 👌🏻

[Anonymous]

What’s yours?

[Extraterrestrial1999]

I mean I had as a thought that I was going to ask a certain person out in high school, but she started talking to someone else before I had the chance to say something.

[Extraterrestrial1999]

*it as a thought

[Opinion Owner]

Why was she the one

[Extraterrestrial1999]

Just her spirit, and there's still something there between us now, even though she's still taken. Like hits me up from time to time, keeps tabs on me, etc, and we aren't friends. Why you ask?

[ABC1x1x]

I'm fast as fuck boi. Plus I have a cross bow.

[Sluttt]

There are plenty of fishes

[Anonymous]

Leah is her name.

[Simslover92]

😔😔😔

[Simslover92]

You're not my ex are you?

[Opinion Owner]

@Simslover92 Why do you ask a question of this nature?

[Simslover92]

Because my ex is with a girl named Leah now. It was kinda a joke

[Opinion Owner]

@Simslover92 You must have no life if you actually know the name of the girl your ex-boyfriend is dating. I never checked or cared who my ex-girlfriend dated. Move forward with your life and let him live his.

[Simslover92]

Haha on the contrary I am living my life. He's the one that opened up to me about her. I have moved on and that shipped has sailed. I am into someone else now. But we still communicate and talk and he brings her up not me. I would rather not know about her.

[Opinion Owner]

@Simslover92 Yes, but you still continue to listen about her, instead of telling him you do not care to hear about his new girlfriend. I think you enjoy finding out details about their relationship.

[Simslover92]

I honestly don't. I could care less but to be fair I just listen because I tell him about my new guy who I am really into.

[Simslover92]

I'm debating whether I should have sex with him this weekend or not actually

[Opinion Owner]

@Simslover92 That is between you and whoever you are debating on having relations with. It is none of my business.

[Simslover92]

Right. Sorry for oversharing.

[Opinion Owner]

@Simslover92 Yes, but what is the reason you felt compelled to share that information with me in the first place?

[Simslover92]

I don't know honestly. I guess I can be too frank and open with people on here because it's an anonymous site. But again I apologize for doing that.

[Opinion Owner]

@Simslover92 I am not the one you need to apologize to. You need to apologize to him for sharing private information about your relationship. I am 100% sure he would not appreciate you sharing this detailed information with a anonymous person online or in real life.

[Simslover92]

Yeah I'll apologize to him about a site he doesn't even know about or care about lmfao Have a good day sir

[Opinion Owner]

@Simslover92 Then he needs to leave you for you do not respect him or his privacy. I would not want my girlfriend talking about that to some stranger on the internet. You need to grow up and fast or you will never keep a man in your life.
