I made a grave mistake. I lost out on a great love because of stupidity on my part. How do you move on? When you feel you have found that one special person that just knocks your socks off. You feel so comfortable with him and him you. He likes your giggle and your playfulness. And you like his deep, sexy voice, his good heart and his love of his home. But you have made some major blunders. Oh, ya! Not just one but several. He won't even communicate with you now. Cut it all off! But everything was so perfect. And I know he felt it too. What do you do?
How do you work through the stubbornness of a proud man? How do you erase mistakes that cloud and corupt a blossoming relationship? And, if after all is said and done how do you just move on? When you feel the realism of good feeling between two people so true and complete, how do you just move on? No way to set it right. No way to persuade or change the ill feeling. How do you move on? What do you do? Do you drive it home one more time. Give it the one last womanly try?! Or, do you just move on? Is it right to do all you can do or just step down, move away, try to move on? Your thoughts.....................

Maybe he just needes a little time to think it through. I might give it one more shot in a couple of weeks if you feel that strongly but them after that...for me...I would have to move on. If this guy is not the one then he is still out there waiting on you my friend.

The question remains. It is true love??? True love survives all the mistakes. Love unconditionally,correct and learn from mistakes, communicate so there is no doubt how you feel.Love is a funny creature. Sometimes a few bumps in the road makes it stronger. Go see him. Bring a gift. Eat a little humble pie. Communicate unconditional love and kindness. Tell him there is no life without him. Look deep into his eyes with your puppy dog eyes. How could he say no??

It is not the true that two people have that have been together. He and I have never met. It is unconditional from my standpoint. I can't go see him. He lives in the South and me in the North. I have eaten humble pie but I have also did three very messed up things to him. He is a proud man and believes in truth. I haven't been truthful. He has cut off nearly all communication. I think it is done. I will love him and he will go on never knowing me or what could have been.

They say "you would only realize how great someone is until he is gone". They couldn't have been more right! Yes I agree mistakes are human. But perhaps not many humans realize that they make mistakes. Perhaps not many humans too get up as fast or at least try to after every fall. But you are different. I think you should try to repossess the same love you once had and you shouldn't give up until you are very sure that it should be time to move on.

Oh, this guy is such a sweetheart. He and I have never met or been together except for phone calls and emails. I thank you for what you said. I can't seem to give up. I blew it and faked things about myself. My fault. Now he doesn't want to communicate with me. Sadly I keep pushing. Can't seem to give up.

If you rslly love that person and want him back in your life...i would suggest you use the power of attraction...when we think our mind creates vibration that can make things happen. But you need to believe and have faith in yoursel that it will happen. Even if you think for a second that it will not happen then your restricting belief will win over your faith. Every night or before you sleep. Create an image in mind of being with that person...do it before you sleep...and think of it several times a day. create an image in mind. "If you mind conceives it and your heat believes it...you should know that you will achieve it."

I really do believe that as well. I was able to get to a point where I would see him at the foot of my bed. I will try it again.

take the logical steps..
1. first, approach him for a talk. you do it first, since you're the who is at fault here. if he's willing to talk, explain your side or at least say the things that are in your heart. blurt it all out less you might get regrets later on.
but if he isn't willing to talk for the time being, don't push. if you insist, he is not game to listen anyway.. if will just go out to the other ear. it might cause another argument between the two of you..
2. don't let the event ruin your life. try hard and harder still to live your life the way you want it to be..have fun, hang-out with friends and stay beautiful. it is important to look unaffected at least on the outside.. who knows he may fall in love with you again
3. believe in destiny.. if you are meant for each other, then no matter how much hardships you went through,, how great the distance and how long the time you've been apart, it doesn't matter. you will still be together in the end.. just like in the film, the notebook..
so try steps 1 to 2, after all, time heals all wounds and the future brings surprises much more than you can expect : )

I have never met this man face to face. I know him only from emails and telephone conversations and his profile on the site where I met him. I know he is a good man I lied and faked things about myself to win him over. To be closer to him. It is all my fault. I think of him first thing when I wake up and last thing before I go to sleep at night. I have tried 1,2, and three. He has cut off all communication with me. It is just SOOOO hard to just move on.

hi celticeagle I would really g ive it one more try as it sounds like you really care.I almost blew it with my hubby as I wanted to be what i thought he would like more, a blonde and an extrovert. well my clumsy attempts to be just like him were horrible and my bleach job a disaster as he was furious with me and I was in tears but I told him that I had done all this because I wanted to be a better person. Know what he said as he sat me down and talked to me: I loved the shy girl with the pale caramel colored hair, I love you just the way you were, so please please change back be yourself, thats the person I love" So it took some doing to get my hair dyed back to that very pale brown almost blonde that I thought was awful but he loved. And it was really easy to be the me I really was.
I know your situation is probably not at all like mine but you said he did care for you so may be he still does underneath it all.why don't you go to him with the words you wrote here , bare your soul and you heart and wait and see, it just might surprise you.Give it one more womanly try and tell him honestly how you feel about him. reading what you wrote might be the way to open his heart to you again.

Always give your best, but if whatever that can be done is done, and yet it cannot be remedy, you'll have no regrets when moving on. Of course we hope for the best and giving our best efforts increase the chance of the best ending being able to happen. And then, we also have to face reality and if after all efforts, our wish doesn't come, we'll have to move on and we know it'll be no regrets then.

to love and be loved is really the sweetest thing of all, its true, give your best to your love one but don't give it all, spare something for yourself so that when the time come when he says we are not meant for each other, you would not be hurt that much and you are ready to accept any negative circumstance regarding your relationship, then it would be easier for you to move on.

hi celtic,
When we journey through the nebulous path of life this is most likely that we stumble at one point or the other. 'Too err is human and forgiveness is heaven' - great poet Alexander Pope had said. This implies the universal tendency of making mistake here and there.
The situation you are in is best perceived by you and we can just peep into and there is no totality. Since you know that he too is not all relaxed after this twist there is every possibility of you two getting united once again.
Had he been totally a gone out case I would have asked to move on for life has a lot stored for you. here the situation is very volatile. Why not once give it a try? I do not think by stooping you would lose all you.
can not it be like stoop to conquer? all the best.

Timing! Timing is essential. assess the personality of your man and knwo when to get in. If he's the type that you have to give space first, then don't strike when the iron is hot. Let him cool down, but be sure to make him feel what you feel before he's able to move on with his life. As I've said, your knowledge of your man's personality and the timing is crucial.
Don't be too pushy, that might drive him away. Anyway, the time without you might bring good... would make him realize your worth and he should start missing you...that's if, he doesn't despise you that much.
Bu at the end, you can't have him back... then maybe, he's not just for you, no matter how perfect the way things used to be.
Move on, and accept that life has something better for him and for you. Just make sure that you learned from the past to make all this painful experience more worthwhile.
