I had a friend whom I consider to be my soulmate. We don't have relationship greater than friendship but we were sweet, we were like lovers - they said we look good together. But sad to know after like 6 years of sharing that kind of relationship he decided to love someone else.. While I was on the point of giving up someone because of him he chose to love someone not me. It broke my heart, I was badly hurt. But good thing to know that after a few months of diverting myself away from him I learned to love myself more. I was able to realize that we were never meant for each other. Though sometimes in the quiet moments of my life I remember and miss him, I have to accept that I have to move on and love again. How about you, how did you survive a broken heart?

Its different for each person, what helped me may not help you. But what helped me was I got out and started doing things I loved and learned more about myself. Is it like you guys don't talk anymore after 6 years of friendship? I had a friendship like that, we were very close people said we should have dated and he was stupid for not dating me. But he loves another woman and yea its hard but I also met someone and fell in love myself. Its something you have to take one day at a time.

The saying "time heals all wounds" sound trite i know. However, experience has though me that it is very true. Your 'wounds' never complete heal, they scab up , may leave scars and eventually the pain begins to lessen. You go on, but are reminded of what not to do or what to do next time when you look at the 'scar'
The reality of it is hard to let go. Think of this as a life experience and it is not your fault. And it is not meant to be. Obviously , that person does not want it as you do.

I decided that I didn't want to live my life being depressed over a guy who didn't want to marry me. I realized that I am a wonderful woman and someone out there will consider himself lucky to be with me. I just hope I found him because my current boyfriend I love dearly.

It took me time to forget, memories will always linger on. But time also help me to adjust being alone. Time also helps me to realized that it was not really meant to be. Life has to go on. It made me realized my mistakes loving her. It's not easy to pick up pieces. It's like your starting all over again. I made myself busy, set my goals, and to achieve more. The pains and the hurts helps me to forget the pass. It helps me to be strong. I did fly high and spreading my wings and aiming high. Then just stay in one room that I will just remember her. I know that is useless to think of. Cause she is gone by the wind. Have a nice day to you!
