Have you ever given your soul to someone on a Silver Platter????

I gave my all, everything I had, the good and the bad to my very first love. He knew everything about me. Things that my closest friends never even knew. It is a great feeling but let me tell you if it ends it's like falling from 10 stories and landing face first on the concrete sidewalk. I gave him everything and more. And I knew everything about him as well. But the relationship did end. And now almost 7 years later my heart still bares some of the scars. I do not think that I will ever be able to open myself up to someone like that ever again. I could never trust someone with my emotions like that again. I really do hope your relationship ends different that mine did. I hope you's stay together 4ever. Cause it is an amazing feeling to have. I wish you all the luck in the world.

when i was younger i was a gutter heart. I mean i would be completely open and honest with everyone i met, I also expected them to be the same with me. However, as i got older I have realised that5 being so oen just makes you vulnerable and some strange, damaged individuals take the oppertunity to hurt you because they can. In answering your question I have to say that nowadays I am a lot less open than i once was. I am sad to say but it is because there are so many haters out there that we become reticent about showing our inner soul blessed be

Good for you Hun, I'm so happy that you were able to let down your walls and share a part of you that you haven't been able to .. I have done this a couple times and it's been ok the relationships ended for different reasons. LOL!! But I have felt most of my life if you don't risk it for love what do you take the risk for. I'm glad that you took your risk or leap of faith and you were caught and not dropped. Have a nice day hun.

Oh I am so happy for you and wish I had the ability to just tear down these walls I've built up slowly over time but I can't. I don't even think it's me being guarded though because I do love my man and I love him with every ounce of my being but if he would take my heart and shred it into a million pieces then try to spoon feed it to me I wouldn't be devastated. I would take the pain shove it deep within the recesses of my soul and it would fester there into anger and hatred. Then I would feed from that anger and hatred to fuel me through how ever long it took to get over our break up. So my sweetie loves me too for the good the bad and the ugly that he has come to know in and of me but it is the ugly that will keep me safe in the event of a potential heart break. The most I will end up is just a little more cynical.

Yes...I have. And after 4 years promising never to use it against me, hurt me, and swearing we would always be friends, he took my heart and shoved it down my throat. I think he still carries my soul around in his pocket and plays with it. cause two years later I still feel empty.

I have, my partner now knows all my insecurites and the true me its so bloody scary and yes I do feel vunerable and I would never be the sma if he broke my heart and left me but he says he loves me and he still holds me at niht so I feel protected and that he wants to be with the true me no matter what and because of this I want to be with him no matter what as well.

You go girl!!!! I am so happy to hear how happy you are...goodness knows from some of what you've shared and worked through I'd say you've earned it. What you are experiencing with your guy is how things were with David and I when we met. I called him for advice about buying my first computer...and we started chatting on the phone. Then we began calling each other every evening and chatted..and chatted and chatted...about most everything...without any reservations at all. At first it felt really weird..and I'd often hang up the phone and second guess myself and say.."Did I really tell him that...goodness...it is so..personal..so 'me.' What might he think of me?' Yet within all my intellectual apprehensiveness a large part intuitively 'knew' that it was emotionally safe for me to be THAT open..THAT real..THAT 'me.' That started seventeen and a half years ago. Here we are all these years later. I gave my complete heart and soul to someone...his name is David. Our openness and trust has gone through many stages of transformation and each stage confirms the strength of what I call our sacred partnership..I embraced it..he embraced it and here we are. Partners in life..love and business! Love like this can and does happen! Raia
