| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/21/2006 5:51:52 PM | About 20 probably. I have felt like I was about to die and thought seriously about a quick ending. But alot of it was set up by me. I expected too much too early because I wanted it so bad. I fell in love way too quick too many times. I am a romatic at heart and a hapless one at that sometimes. I have cried like a baby, stared at my blank television, thought about suicide, literally felt pain and hurt in my stomach, became very depressed, started the car in the garage then shut it off, developed terrible attitudes, hated myself, you name it.
This usually happened after one of those episodes that you cannot believe how fast and completely the relationship turned around when it was going "too good to be true".
I have somehow dug myself out of it because if I quit, I am giving myself the rejection I don't deserve and telling myself the biggest "NO" I have ever gotten in doing so.
There are two choices. Work on yourself and keep trying to improve yourself. Know it will happen and do things to help the possibilities or...
Quit and give yourself an infinite "NO".
I say work on yourself, get help in the forums, say positive things about yourself and give yourself the respect you deserve. Build yourself up and stay busy but be out there and available too. As I say these words I am telling myself this too. It needs to be reinforced daily.
Heartbreak is the worst feeling I have EVER EVER felt next to a lost friend or family member. It actually feels the same to me. But I can't afford to miss the Love I have walking around out there somewhere so I choose plan A.

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/21/2006 6:37:31 PM | 8 times. I'm a romantic and believe in romanticism - some people are not & don't. I have found the principle belief of "try try again" to be a philosophy to live by, and the statement "it only hurts for a little while" to be true (therefore) I do not allow myself to become jaded, guarded, restricted, bitter, limited in belief or by these things, have an open mind and am always open to taking a "chance" in the name of LOVE!  | |

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/21/2006 6:46:30 PM | There are different degrees of heartbreak. Over the years, many times, but the lesser ones I like to call "momentary lapses of reasonable sanity". But one time...one time....I was truly in love..and he ripped my world, my heart and my finances apart. I never saw it coming. I thought I knew him, as we were somewhat friends ten years before we ever dated. It took me a year to finally stop crying myself to sleep at night. That was over ten years ago. Although I am over him, and have recovered better than I ever thought I could (what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger) not sure I ever really got over the fear that it could happen again. Guess that's why I'm overly cautious a bit. But I won't give up. There's got to be a good man with a good heart and soul somewhere out there for me.  | |

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/21/2006 8:52:51 PM | Just once for me... our relationship, from friendship to the final break-up spanned 14 years. I loved him dearly as a friend, even moreso as a partner. I spent quite a bit of time lost after we parted ways, and I have to admit it has made me a little hesitant of relationships since then.
But for all the heartache and tears, he still has a piece of my heart and always will; and the memories I hold close are ones that are worth every iota of pain I endured. It is with these memories that I also hold out hope for a more permanent relationship... | |

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/21/2006 8:57:45 PM | got my heart slightly cracked once before .... but by the time the end was there, i had already prepared myself for it so it didn't really break my heart ..
then the second time i loved, i got it shattered .... blind sided me so i never had time to protect my heart from shattering .... but eventually all the pieces get picked up and put back together ... | |

I used to think my heart was broken many times, but it wasn't. Going through the break up with my last girfriend has been the hardest, and made me learn what getting your heart broke really meant. I've never cried over a break up till now... Six months later, I am still haunted by her in my dreams, and it's hard to get up in the morning every once in a while. I am gradually picking up the pieces, but there is just soooo many, but I am winning the uphill battle! Soon I will reach the sumit and be freeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/21/2006 9:25:29 PM | Once Met her when I was 16 married her when I was 22. When I turned 28 I was disabled and when I was 38 she looked me in the eyes and told me I wasn’t the man she married and that she was having an affair. She walked out Feb 6th 1993 two days before my birthday. That was 13 yrs ago she married the guy. So I had my heart broken once and it still is. I don't think I could take having it broke again
Their is a quote I remember from the movie fried green tomatoes “A heart can be broken and still keep beating" There are times I wish it wouldn't

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/21/2006 9:44:27 PM | Once...but that's enough.I am thankful that happened because thanks to that I'm not a romantic fool anymore and no man will break my heart(if it's still with me, that is) again.I came out safe rather than sorry.I have become wiser from being a silly little naive girl!I don't believe in love,soulmates,romance and all that junky nonsense and I am damn too glad for that.There is so much more to life than wasting your time thinking about a guy.

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/22/2006 1:37:17 PM | Wow, Flav, isn't that a bit extreme? I know you are very young and that mindset will change, but one heartbreak and that is it? The reason I mention you being young is because time is at your disposal (me jealous) and I used to think that way too. But all of a sudden a 38th birthday comes out of nowhere and holy sh*t what happened?
Don't lose your romantic heart. Just keep it protected from the jerks out there. | |

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/22/2006 1:40:32 PM | I applaude you Trishnaa! My friends sometimes make me out to be coldhearted because I don't waste time looking for a man. Although I do this internet dating, I never make first contact. I prefer to just wait till something falls out of the sky into my lap, so to speak..lol. And if it doesn't...oh well.

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/27/2006 12:38:17 PM | Hi Angel
Broken to the point where I recovered relativley quickly - about five times.
Broken to the point where it seemed I would never recover at all - twice.
The last two have definitely been the most painful and caused me to do the most soul-searching - and for quite some time, I might add.
Oh, how different it must feel to have a heart of stone, eh? Thing is, only unfeeling cretins truly get on with other unfeeling cretins. Guess it must be this like-for-like thingmebob!
Regards

| How many times in yor life has your heart been broken?? Posted: 6/27/2006 1:01:29 PM | Honestly I haven't kept count but I hardly ever let anyone close enough to really hurt me. Broken heart I'd say 2 times I thought I was going to die literally. I've had my feelings hurt a lot, I've been let down and disappointed more often than I can say, betrayed and cheated on twice, and have been disappointed in myself quite often for my poor judgement and bad choices. But it only broke my heart to lose 2 people..the rest I guess I could have lived without as their memories do not sting or make me happy they're just there, but those two individuals the memories are bitter sweet and I'll always love them till the day I die.
Looks like I'm one up on everyone else here...Only one great love for most and I've had two..I'm a very lucky girl..third times the charm though right? | |
