For those that said yes, I question wether you’ve truly ever loved someone before.

[victoriaxoxo]

You don't forget but you lose feelings for them. Granted the memories you had do get etched in and I don't think they ever leave. It's just that your mind stops replaying them so frequently.

You do fall in love more than once though so.. even though you will know who your first love was, once you're in love again all your emotions will be focused on the new person. You won't ever ever think about your old love and you won't replay those memories or compare them. Your old love just becomes a lesson and a strong memory.

[LazerBean]

Nope, especially not since I married him.

[TruthBringer]

Yes and no.

The ex, I am already slowly forgetting about bit by bit. But the pain she had caused (gladly past that now) and the lessons it brought are to be remembered forever. Without all of the emotional abuse she caused me some years back, I wouldn't have entered a very low phase in my life that forced me to become a much more developed person that I am today. No thanks to my ex who I, many years later, found out is a covert narcissist. It is all thanks to my own perseverance.

[MCheetah]

Yes. I broke up with Ellen cause she revealed to me she was gay. Told me right in the bar "I'm bisexual" and I had to retrain myself from not cursing her out, despite how furious I was. I caught feelings for a dyke who was gaslighting me and I'll never make that mistake again.

[TruthBringer]

Don't blame yourself mate. If she held it from you then you were mislead and it is all on her. I fell for the charms of a covert narcissist myself some years ago. Wearing a façade is all they do to get what they want.

[MCheetah]

Thanks. I would've never given her the time of day had I known she was queer this whole time. I felt so used and humiliated. Still can't believe my "first" girlfriend was a lesbian. Of course now, I retcon her out of being my "first" girlfriend. She doesn't count.

[jennifer_bloom]

Yeah - I was a totally different person the first time I really loved a guy and when my old personality died - so did my ability to love him. I had a terrible crises that changed me from a coward who needed approval into a bold person who could remain confident even while receiving death threats - and the guy that I liked when I was shy and vulnerable now seemed weak and cowardly to me. I never liked him again, did not even respect him as a person once I changed.

[AmandaYVR]

What was love then means very little later. With age and experience, you gain perspective. Like it or not, everything is relative.

[exitseven]

@AmandaYVR yes but i suspect that you do in fact remember it.

[AmandaYVR]

@exitseven Nah it's not like that. I have memories, and stories, and they meant a lot at the time, but I'm not interested in what I thought might be love at the time. I want intense, all-consuming, and reciprocal... or nothing at all.

[exitseven]

@AmandaYVR yes-Quality over quantity

[OlderAndWiser]

I might forget her if I get so old that I become senile. :) :) :)

[ThinkFitness23]

No, you don’t forget but this is not to say you don’t get over them.


You will never forget anyone you truly loved.


Those that haven’t moved on simply haven’t found something better yet… If the split is recent then that’s normal but if it’s been many years then your new relationship given time should wharf any previous relationships and then some.

[Twalli]

Hard to say since I am still dating her. Unless you mean the first girl I ever had a crush on. All I know is what her name was then. I am pretty sure she's married and has at least one kid. If you mean the first girl I ever found attractive, all I remember is her first name.

[ArrowheadSW]

I have not forgot, but in retrospect it was not that big of a deal. Just teenagers in the process of growing up. I am somewhat in touch with her on social media but it is not like I'm carrying a torch to get back with her at all.

[curlyfirecracker]

No, but they are no longer 'love' persay, just memories of a moment in time that you can look back on fondly. However, more often than not, that is it.

[BlueScorpio]

Yes, never really had one if those growing up but I do remember my first crush. Didn't go anywhere though, he never like me but it's nice to remember things when you were younger.

[Vesuvius87]

Yes I'm over here. There was never real love. It was a fantasy I've created in my mind for the longest. I've realized I never really love him. Infatuation isn't love.

[Guccigabbana18]

Of course not. I remember all my past loves because they were a significant part of my life at one point.

[Anonymous]

Oh definitely not. Even though she’s weird now. I don’t know what’s happened to her. She was so sweet and.


I think she’s probably been through some really bad stuff. But it’s still disappointing.

[sheenagwapa]

no because i care about him for many years he took care of me but when it comes to romantic feelings i 💯 don't feel anything anymore

[AviatorTom]

Though it was many years ago, I sometimes think of my first love... and my first kiss.

[Andridaca]

If you mean get over, yes, forget, no. But I've never truly loved some one, and that relationship was hilarious.

[bamesjond0069]

Nope and that's why a girls V is so important. Best to be that man than one who just has to deal with his girl thinking about the man who did. Smh.

[DancingQueen16]

Nope because I still remember my first crush from 3rd grade

[exitseven]

nope, and I never forgot any of the other ones either.

[Blackcupcake]

I haven’t experienced any romantic love towards someone

[tfan1]

I chose no because I’m married to her 😉👍❤️

[TroyDT2]

I haven't found her yet so I have no way of knowing.
