Posted: 4/24/2008 5:19:28 PM | Here's a thought as mentioned to me by my daughter (20 years old).
My daughter seems to think that because I left my husband (4 years ago) and he's happily moved on and well I am well as you can see here and not having much luck. She seems to think that who ever leaves the person is going to have hard time finding someone new because of the (possible devastation) they created. Hence cursed? true/false, thoughts/theories please. Stories please!! | |

Posted: 4/24/2008 5:49:48 PM | I dunno Leeanne...I ended things with my ex seven years ago. He met someone else within months and is now married to her. I have not had a relationship in that time. Granted, things are coming along amazing in my life right now but the one thing that is missing is a partner to complete the picture.
The last seven years have not been easy, but I am not going to look at the bad anymore and look forward to the good that is happening and will happen!  | |

Posted: 4/24/2008 6:10:57 PM | I was the one that left my ex husband and I have had relationships since... he has not.
However he is still my best friend so watching him sad and lonely is painful. Karma in another form perhaps? | |

Posted: 4/24/2008 6:25:41 PM | I guess it all depends on how you view your life!
I tend to pick all the positives and disregard the negatives! If I wanted to - I could easily say karma has bit me in the ass for getting rid of the ex! However I choose not to live my life in - would have - could have - should haves and Oh woes me!! There are certainly things in my life I can say are not happy or good karma - but why think of those?!?! A chin up makes all the difference in who you see as getting the strong arm of karma! | |

1. If you believe in past lives, your relationship in this life could have been to work things out from a previous life.
2. You could have been together in this life to bring your daughter in this world, which no one but the two of you could do.
3.You both or at least one of you were in the relationship to grow and learn certain things which you and no one else could have done. Now weather they were hardships or good you would know that. So take the good like your daughter and grow with it, Take the negative look at it and learn from it then put it away. | |

Posted: 4/24/2008 7:33:31 PM | The philosophical explanation of karma can differ slightly between traditions, but the general concept is basically the same. Through the law of karma, the effects of all deeds actively create past, present, and future experiences, thus making one responsible for one's own life, and the pain and joy it brings to him/her and others.
So in other words NO......We are all responsible for ourselves......RESPONSIBLE FOR ONE 'S OWN LIFE!!!! You or anyone leaving someone for whatever reason doesn't necessarily give you bad Karma....you can't give yourself it....you can just project it onto others.......bad or good....
I don't know if this makes any sense lol............

Posted: 4/25/2008 12:55:07 PM | nope, i don't believe in people getting what's "due" them - i've seen too many people have bad things happen to them who didn't deserve it and too many people who are "not deserving" (to put it nicely) live apparently charmed lives
i do believe, however, that we can make a lot of our own contentment by our attitudes toward what does happen in life - so in that way we can have the good because we see the good (the silver lining) whenever possible... | |

Was that a Kia Karma? or a Karma Gia?
Can't see out the front windshield on either of those cars if your a little old lady peeking over the steering wheel!
I hope the dogma is ok???? | |

Very well said!
I also think that you get what you put in. It's kind of like what Leeanne said...positive, negative, atittude.
I also told my ex I was leaving...my marriage was over anyway years before that, but that's another thread. He is now engaged...and I'm still single...partly because I don't get much free time since he is a deadbeat and barely sees or calls his kids. I'd rather take the bad, learn from it and move on...making sure those old wounds are dealt with before entering another serious relationship. | |

Damn. Someone else already said it.
