thank you for that wonderful poem. Charity loved poetry. Her boyfriend read a poem at her funeral. I believe it was one of her favorites. I will have to get a copy. I believe the name of it was the path less troden by****nson maybe?

Heres hoping that you have found the love that makes you happy now. I do believe that each time we loose some one special a part of us dies but that gives way for some thing new to grow. Much like pruning a tree after winter we need to make space for what is good and new and fresh to happen.

Hey Hippoman......

I know how you feel......it wasn't all that long ago that I felt in much the same way. The pain is real and it hurts like no other you could ever experience......but it DOES pass with time. At first, time feels like your enemy....but after a short while, it does become your savior. Just stick with your friends and talk about it any time you feel like it. Letting it out makes it go quicker and easier.....and that is what your true friends are for.

My dear friend helped me in ways I could not even fathom at the time, and I thank god for having her in my life every day now. Even though she is a thousand miles away, she was next to me the whole time I was down. Find your friends and stick close to them when you feel this way........and please believe me...this feeling you are having will soon pass.

Take care man !

Oh Dear Misled Hippoman...

I know exactly how you feel. To quote John Waite:

I know what she put you through
I know what you'd like to do
I lost my my heart to her some time ago

(and later)

So C'mon
Wipe those tears away
It's all that you can do
Broken hearts never mend quiet tears...

Also, in the words of the late Frank Zappa, "Broken Hearts are for ***holes." He was also known (although many feel he commited suicide through cigarettes and coffee) to have said, after the death of Kurt Cobain, "Suicide is the sport of chumps."

In my opinion - as a man that has recently watched the "woman of my dreams" lie to me every day, while telling me one thing and telling her friends and family another - that while I don't treat a relationship like a game, the best way most men (and I have to admit, myself included) can forget about the "bus that passed them by" is by "catching another bus." In orher words, keep "fishing" on this site and others feverishly until you find someone else. I DON'T CARE IF IT'S SUPERFICIAL! Do you think anyone else cares? There are women that get 100 e-mail a day that may want you just for a "roll in the hay." Should you feel bad about that? Hell, no!

The best revenge, (Oscar Wilde?) is truly living well. That means taking care of yourself, getting yourself in shape, performing your job like it's nobody's business, and going out there and finding someone else. No - not Mrs. Right. That didn't go over too well before - remember? When you experience different personalities and can finally pick and choose, your higher self-esteem will show, and you will finally evolve to meet someone that YOU can take or leave! Mrs. Right will come into your life whether you are ready or not!

I am going through such a phase right now, and can say, in the words of Freddie Mercury, "Don't Try Suicide. Nobody's worth it!" I still suffer the pangs of separation anxiety, but realize that there are always dating sites now, with forums such as this, and friends, either online or actual, and most importantly - my daughter. When I tell her about some of my dates, and she senses something more than "hand-holding" has been going on, she has a smile on her face - because she knows someone is making her father happy - priceless!

Good Health (I'd say "Good Luck, but I don't believe in luck)

You are a wonderful person for even having the courage to post this kind of sorrow and grief you are going through. No one is worth your life, no one. I have been in your place and believe me when I tell you, every feeling we have is for a reason and everyone we meet is for a reason. We just don't know why things happen to us sometimes until we are farther down the path along the journey. You are an eternal being having a human experience! Sometimes the best way to get over somebody is to get under somebody else. Eventually. Give yourself a big hug!

Firstly, as for break-ups. I always loved this Robert Hunter line.

"Broken heart don't feel so bad"
"You haven't lost half of what you thought you had"

Secondly, and just a tad less serious....and to add a bit of levity ...
The best way to get over a man,....is to get under one.

Love's Curse

She couldn't stand the silence,
She couldn't stand the tears,
She couldn't stand her life
After only sixteen years.
=================

Nice poem Lisia
Even if about a relatively rare occurrence.

Very few 16 year old females ever suicide over broken love and even fewer over, in this case, postponed love.

Most suicides, over broken love, are mid aged, recently seperated, males.

I've actually got a poem about that one too, but I'm probably breaching the poets's copyright if I post it here.

If you really want a poem about suicide take the blocks off your profile and I'll send you a copy.

I agree..your poem has brought tears to my eyes...
Hippo, if you want or need to talk, please contact me..There are people who care and you are worth it..
I know exactly how you are feeling..please be strong, surround yourself with friends, family, positive people in your life..Seek help from a Professional if you need to talk..
Yes, people say suicide is a selfish act..and in many ways it is....but I do know that until someone has been in that deep, dark place full of heartache, sometimes it feels like you want to give up...
Choose life..Message me anytime if you'd like to talk..
BE STRONG..you can...

It really sucks because i am at that very point. But you have to try to understand. I just keep thinking that thing could be worst. It doesn't seem like it. I'm at my very bottom. But I'm not going to do it. I won't accept that what I'm going thru is enough to do it. I have alot going on. Lots of things that i think that putting to my life. Like the only woman i could honestly say i truely love and would do anything for is a lesbian. I didn't know about this til a few weeks ago. Left me for a woman. Nothing i could do. My kids mother is marrying a convicted rapest/murderer who will never get out. Wants to move with my kids closer to him. You just have to realize that if you kill yourself what good is that going to do. You can't feel better if you're dead. Sure the pain is unbearable. But people do care. Things will get better, at least that is what i keep telling myself, but you have to try to make them better. Is she/he really worth killing yourself over. After what they did to you? Are you going to let them win? The best revenge is to live and try to show them that you're better off with out them. You don't really need them. You were fine before you were with them. You just have to keep pushing on. I won't lie I've cried more in this last month then i ever have. Sure the pain is unbearable. Makes me think about doing it but i can't people need me, my kids need me. How would they feel? killing yourself is stupid. it's being selfish. I wish i could tell you something that would make it feel better but there is nothing. you have to want to make it better. you have to start with yourself. no one is going to want a broken person. And I know no one is going to want a dead one either. just keep thinking good thoughts. try to move on. I am there too. but i'm still here and it is a good feeling even thou i am broken like you.

The thought has crossed my mind a few times but you have to think of the things you DO have to live for, your children, your family and friends..and also, you must think of what that person would want you to do...they'd want you to live on
