It can be both romantic and non- romantic when it comes to involvement with them. I just mean someone where you feel like you could never find another person like them?
I met a guy at the library around 4-7 years ago and there was something special about the way he carried himself - at the time I met him - I had more respect for him than I did for anybody else in the last ten years of my life even though he was a stranger. I learned his name several years later and discovered he gave speeches for a living - apparently he raised over $1,000,000 dollars for charity before the age of 20 by giving speeches to people about bullying and mental health and how the emotional needs of others are being ignored. He also had 5000 friends on facebook at the age of 21 and he was on Ted Talks. He was also voted one of the top 20 under 20 too. He was in 2 of my classes at the University of Toronto. I wouldn't say I was attracted to him - I viewed him too reverently to ever think about him in romantic terms.
I think every person you meet is different, and in that way they are a "once in a life time" encounter... But only those I befriend are the once in a lifetime people that I've considered worthy of my time, you know... You could meet some that is the "once in a lifetime" kind in a bad way, like "holy grail get me away from this person please"... Every guy I crushed on though was unique enough for me to invest my time and emotion into discovering about them, and when you get to know someone then they become even more special, because you can see the world through a wider perspective... That is yours combined with theirs... And that's what makes someone special in your life: they make your world a bigger place Don't know if I'm explaining this properly, it's hard to conceptualize 😅
One was born with a 3-chambered heart that was one of my best friends growing up, until he passed away from heart failure, as the longest surviving person in history with his specific condition.
Another was a trans woman who worked as a nurse and a youth pastor, but on weekends was the funniest, most ratchet person I know. Was always the life of the party, wherever they went.
There was also a girl I knew with a great sense of humor, very rare mix of hobbies, and the most insane drive to reach her dream career. Dated for a couple years, but eventually her career became more important than her friends, and doesn't talk to most of us anymore.
Sure. Everybody I've had in my life was unique. Friends, my dad and brother. They were both very strong and one of a kind type of guys. Women I've known have definitely had different personalities. There's different things about each of them that I didn't want to let go of because I might not find it again.
Probably my first love, he was so chivalrous and gentlemanly towards me. I'd never had a boy act that way towards especially ones around his age. He treated me as if I was his Queen.
It was as if someone had crafted my prefect man to the finest details, just my type physically and mentally. I told myself to go for it as finding someone like him ever again would be 1 in 100000 and that I had to get him before some other girl did. I was completely madly in love with him that I was to blind to see it was to good to be true and he eventually showed me his true colours and broke my heart with his cowardly and immature ways.
None that i have met in real life but i like some i have met in books, Dave Ramsey Stephen covey Henry cloud, john townsend Brene brown Elizabeth smart Ann rule Elon musk Those are people i admire Intelligence, people skills, driven, and very inspiring
Yes, my best friend since primary school. She is amazing in about everything. She is extremely caring and kind, super smart, funny, athletic and cute. I never again met any one person who is great at all those points, and I am eternally grateful she wants to be my friend too.
Oh my goodness yes. I was in high school, 10th grade. He was the most kind-hearted, charming guy I ever met and he moved away and I never could find him again. I never could lie to him. Which was a big thing because I lied to everyone at that age. The day he told me he was moving it was literally raining. I only knew him for a month and ten years later I still think of him.
My second boyfriend. He was a gem. I was always made to feel less than myself. I was constantly screamed at by him for no apparent reasons, not discounting the fact that he hit me as well. I was in constant fear when I was with him. Yes, once in a lifetime, knowing him, is more than enough.
i think i did met someone but we nerver hang out together and I only saw her 1 or 2 days a week at our teakwondo school. we talked a lot in facebook, we got along really well and I always had fun talking to her, we had great communication. we naver date, I fall in love with her and after I told her, everything changed between us. now we aren't friends. some days I wish I had nerver told her that I was in love with her and maybe we would still be friends. friends come and go.
I'm a vary picky when it comes to my friends but my group of 6 counting me off friends we fit perfectly together like the three sisters we are symbiosis there are three girls and three boys 9 12 13 13 15 15
Yes, he is everything I ever dreamed of and more; which is crazy because my expectations were totally unrealistic and yet I found him... I don't think I'll ever find someone like him and I wish I never lose him
Have you ever had those amazing conversations with someone where you feel like you two could have been amazing friends and have many deep conversations
... only to never see them again; perhaps you never even caught their name?
yes, many walk through your life and leave a little something special. can be one meeting, a few times or romantic or your amazing friends in life, your family. i take the posiitive and share the love and with them.
Yeah, my best friend. On the outside she's an exact opposite meaning she's somewhat a tomboy but passes as a "normal" girl by society yet personality and interest wise she's like my twin sister.
Yes... and I after a long while I asked her out and found out she has a boyfriend... and the thing that hurts even more... is that because her boyfriend is in the army and she's only one class above me... I see her everyday... by herself... I no longer try to have eye connection since I don't want her to think of me as a creep... And I'm still in love with her but am not gonna act on it... lately I'm getting really confusing feelings...
Yeah... my two best friends are both absolutely incredible. Iāve never met anyone before, or since, that have ever been so perfect. I donāt know what Iād do without them
yes, I am still in unbelief that my current boyfriend is such a loving, interesting, charismatic person he is. he constantly says something that makes me go "what is wrong with you :D I say/think it too"
I met a girl and her life has just been really incredible. Not because amazing things have happened but because horrible things have happened to her and she just persevere's and it makes her a stronger person. I really like her but I'm not sure if it's just as a friend or something more but I don't know how she feels about me.
That's the way my girlfriend is... She is, without a doubt, the most elegant woman I have ever met. I even told her that when we were in college... I think that's why she reached out to me a couple years after we graduated.
yes i met... in all my life just once, and whenever i try to talk to her now, she ends the conversation after a few sentences :'( i am watching her to go , and i do not know what to do to change her mind :'( :'(
Thereās been some where I can wholeheartedly let my full guard down. These people accepted me at my worst so I gave them everything they wanted at my best.
Yeah my current girlfriend. She is the complete opposite of every other girl I have ever been with.

Yes.. I have Its wonderful to get to know someone and just think and feel "Wow this person is incredible " You feel incredibly lucky you got to know them, because you realise they are one of kind
Nah, people aren't as unique as you'd think. When I see a person that stands out and they slip away, I know that there are plenty of others like them.

Yes, she broke my heart into a million tiny pieces, but insisted that we be friends. She's married with a child now... bittersweet... my heart still aches...
šššš You can just call me Naya. I mean just Cherry or Rose works too. But Naya is my actual nickname. So whatever works for you š. You've Bern a good friend for a while so I don't mind
@scorpios I was going through a tough time in my life and I took all my problems out on her. Deep down I want to ātake a breakā but I never spoke up which I bitterly regret. She was just so perfect at the time. She did absolutely nothing wrong. She then ended up dumping me.
Then things got real screwed up after that. She never contacted me but did respond to my messages (curtly). We had one phone call 1.5 years later. It was like talking to a robot.
I then sent her a final email about the real reason I was trying to reach out to her. Explain what I did wrong, what she did to deeply hurt me and ultimately forgave her. She did respond but she deleted all remaining photos and posts associated with me on social media a few days later. So I know she read it.
I told her I would never contact her again and Iāve kept my word for almost 2 years now. But I really wish I could just have a simple phone call or cup of coffee. Want that more than anything.
@scorpios Iām not counting on it. Something pretty serious happened after we broke up. When I sat down to confront her about it she literally told me ātough luck you are an exā. This is the same girl who was madly in love with me for an entire year.
That shit haunted for years and me behave in ways I never thought I would. So I did the only thing I could. Write out and explain how that hurt me and forgave her saying Iām moving on. But still I wish we could have talked it out face to face.
@scorpios the letter gave me time to carefully structure out the details of the problem. I revised it 4 or 5 times and even had my best friend I trust read it over (he knew exactly what she did to me). I put more care into writing that than anything else Iāve ever written in my life. I had to be honest but not threatening. Real but not bitter.
But there was something about seeing her in person that destroyed the ideal phantom image I had of her in my head. I started remembering the things I didnāt like about her. Ironically that made it easier to move on from her.
@scorpios when we broke up it was more sad. She said ādonāt be a strangerā. I walked away feeling numb but at the same time I looked fondly at our time together. It was a very good experience. But also had a sense of peace that there were still good women out there. She was exceptional.
When she later did that ātough luckā after I got some horrible news that DESTROYED that hope I had. Made me not trust anyone. I was absolutely incredulous and broken after that. She had zero empathy for what I was experiencing.
I thought she would take time to process that and one day reach out to apologize. She often said stupid or insulting when she was nervous but always apologized later (sometimes too much). But then I realized I was not only being rejected as boyfriend but as a human being.
@scorpios she was exactly extremely mature while we dated. Thatās why I liked her and thatās why I was in shock.
This has been the biggest monkey on my back for years. But I keep remembering that email letter I sent and how I finally got it out of my system. Still though I wish she would have called me to apologize.
@scorpios oh I know Iāll never get it. She could find out I have terminal cancer and still wouldnāt care.
I hate feeling this way. Weak af. But I just havenāt found anybody like her and Iāve been looking hard. I did get a new beautiful girlfriend for 9 months. Young, hot but we were just more fuck buddies. No capacity to interact on a deeper level.
