I was broken hearted last year, and at that time i really wished that someone could mend my broken heart, i was really depressed and in pain so much at that time, and during that time the only thing could heal the pain was to be with someone again. Maybe i was a little desperate, so, i been dated some guys and evaluate them also if possible be my next boyfriend. And one of them also like to be with me but no commitment at all, but i declined it, which i discussed a few months ago. I met some guys and dated with them and their are very nice and easy to love with, but still my heart don't give it easily, i thought that was so easily to fall in-love again, but i was afraid to fall in-love again and getting hurt again at the same time. Its really hard to give your heart and trust again after what you been through, after a painful heartbreak.
I'm pretty much ok now, and still meeting some people and create a friendship with them. But my heart not yet ready, though i really wished and hopeful that i will be meet the right person for me who open my heart again and erase all those worries in me.
Have you been through this kind of situation? what am i doing is right?
Happy mylotting..

I have experienced similar feelings as you. It be very hard to get over a heart break. We know that it would be best for us to work on ourselves, to improve our strengths and work on our weaknesses. But we feel the need to be with someone. We don't want to be alone. And when we are alone it feels as a huge burden of depression is upon us. I agree that it can be very difficult to give our heart to another person. Continue to give yourself the time that you need and hopefully when the right person presents themselves you will be ready and have love to offer him as well.

Yeah, that's what i feel before, that is why i'm searching the replacement, then realize that i am still not yet ready, I wanted to heal first totally before entering to a new relationship. I pray a lot to be totally heal soon and able to forgive myself and the person who hurt me so much. Then i will be willing to give my heart to someone who i really deserve.

Yes, i felt that also, being sad and depressed. Every time that i wake up in the morning its like the hardest day of my life, that i need to battle to forget and be ok and feeling the hurt was gone even if not. I also thankful that my friends and family help me a lot to conquer those sadness and pain in me. And now that i know i can go on, and i just be waiting to heal my heart soon.
Thanks again..

It can be hard to accept the fact that we aren't ready.I know it was really hard for me. I felt so sad and depressed. And I felt like I needed to have a person that I could talk to. At that time I was leaving on my own and trying to make ends meet at such a young. I'm glad though that I had friends that I could talk to and spend time with. They were really there for me and I appreciated that. Yes let yourself heal first.

In my opinion when it comes to broken heart.
Normally you would feel the pain and if you are with someone else, not exactly dating another guy but at least with your friends or even cousins of course you wouldn't feel the depression but only when you are alone.
I don't think searching for another guy to love with would be a good idea because chances are you are just forcing yourself to love a person for the sake that your broken heart will release. Just believe to the fate that there will be someone coming to your heart. It couldn't be right now, tomorrow or just next week but you must be patient enough to believe that it will come to you soon as long as you have move on emotionally. Take time to release all the depression and pain alone. As much as possible do not commit into relationship while you were still having a broken heart and you still love the past boyfriend. Chances are you will compare it to your recent guy and it will come to a point that your boyfriend will be affected with your emotions that you are having now. BUT IT IS A CASE TO CASE BASIS. If it happens that you are now IN LOVE with another guy and you believe that he is really the one for you. Of course it has to be LOVE FOR EACH OTHER then GO ON with that relationship and as much as possible forget the past.
Now you are asking what if your heart will break again and it was the same feeling for being painful. So here's my question now. Who is that guy you have chosen to be with? Have you observed his character before you commit into relationship? Or you are a type of a person that you wouldn't care about his character as long as you love him and you are confident enough to handle it no matter what.
Why don't you hope and pray that there will be a right guy for you who will love you, value you as woman, respect you, a trustworthy and honest being, and responsible enough to fight his love for you?

Hi Metatronik, I know now exactly what should i do, before i was really hurt and badly need a person who would comfort me and release all those anger and pain, and i'm not alone, so i was meeting a different guy and dated some of them, but when my heart realized that it is not possible for me again to love other person, i stop, it is also unfair to the person who is being nice and has a good motive for me. And unfair also to my heart that who cannot give love again at that time.
I am still hoping and praying that one day my heart will be ready to fall in love again, and that my heart are now free from pain. Praying that someday God will send me another man that who can love me and willing to accept me..
Thanks again..

hi! as the other mention, maybe most of us experienced that kind. it is really painful to gone through like that of yours. especially when we expect that he is the one for us. it is really hard to move on and thanks that you are doing well now. we really need a lot of time to heals and of course we need the help of God. i always hear this from people, that a true love always come at the right time so we should not look for it. i am sure that will come to you when you are really ready to have it.

Hi shrike, thanks you for the good words, someone also told me that a painful experienced is the one also my other way to a wonderful experience that will happen just believe that it will come sooner as we expected to happen, and i will believe that also, because what ever happen for me has the reason, which also come to me before was unfair but now realizing that maybe because God also want me to be alone for a while to be ready for the person that he will send me soon.

I have been very lucky when it comes to relationship and the few that I have ever had, I was the one who initiated the breakups since I felt that I needed someone that we were more compartible. It takes times to love or trust again and is a normal thing for those who undergoes a painful breakup. There is nothing wrong with that and you are just need sometimes to get through your breakup and then gradually, you will be able to fall in love again.

Look, im going to be extremely frank about this. If you constantly run away from your problems, you will quickly become a stagnant person. You'll be doing nothing but writing yourself a sob story hoping that others will come and comfort you about it. You have to jump into the pit of your emotions and confront the problem head on, only then can you truly start to feel liberated again.

I ever felt the same like even until right now. I just think maybe we just need time to erase that for our memories and to heal our pain. It's right to be more careful and take care our heart, because we didn't wanna make the same mistakes cause it's very hurt..,

Taking my time really help me to get through all this. Making some friends and some old friends are also the one who help me to forget, heal and realize that my life is very special and not to waste in trash man. I guess also what im doing is right. and by doing this i can have a lot of inspiration to them.

I think you are rushing back into dating. I believe if you keep this up you will get hurt worse then your were last year! Sounds like you want to be on the rebound and find happiness right away to heal your broken heart. You are asking for trouble and you are better being on your own until your heart is healed. In time it will. Just give it time! If you continue not to,I smell trouble and is around the corner! Men love (At least some do) to take advantage of a woman on the rebound like you! If you don't stop this you will get hurt again and I can not say that enough! I have been there and never will go there again!

Hi, thanks for the advice, yes, i know that i should not rush all things especially on the matter of the heart because it surely hurt the most when things gets complicated more. Maybe at that time i was really hurt so that's why i been seeking another love for me to move on faster than i thought and never feel the pain. But i know deep in my heart that its not happen because my heart is still not ready to give in again.

Your a woman and better not to give in easily because it will give you pain again if you don't think about the real one that loves you, who you are and love must not only a promise but forever...
We have the same problem, my friend. But I prefer to find someone who really loves as I am. I am really tired of my relationship with my partner who obviously ruin my life with 10 years of relationship.
Now, I decide to end it up to find someone else better than her...
I hope you find the better person in your life, my friend. The person that really cares and loves you forever...

Hope you can find also yours..

Hello there I would like to put on some light on your questions.I myself got hurt and fallen in love so many times.It is better to have experienced those feelings and learn lessons from them.But I would like to reiterate that if you are not yet ready for another relationship, don't force it.Just because you got hurt and you want to forget all about it, forcing yourself to engage in a relationship while mending your broken heart is hard.You are actually engaging yourself again in another heartache.Try to calm yourself and not to think that it's the best solution.Try to go out with your buddies.,cry a lot it helps I promise you that.I am suggesting those to you because I have experienced those things and it helped me get better.Don't force yourself to see other guys and date., make friends but not boyfriends if I may say.Your heartache will eventually fade in time just like the saying goes " time heals all wounds " and I believe that.Someday when you are totally over your ex boyfriend it will eventually show and that is the time that you will feel that you are ready for another relationship.Just relax and stay happy. :)

Hi Tipay26, thanks for the advice, after the discussion i made i eventually realized that taking my time to heal is really a good things to do, as much as i don't want to hurt again, i don't like also to hurt some one who are good to me and showed me a kindness. Maybe i was just really hurt at that time that is why i really wanted to overcome those pain in any possible way, but the fact that my heart are not yet ready, i cannot pursue any other possible relationship that come in my way. It end-up leaving the person behind and asking to be just my friend. Which is also ending up not to be happy to both of us. But I will calm and stay where i am right now, and resting my heart first until the day that i am totally move on.

Getting into a serious relationship is not as easy as everyone thinks. It requires commitment on both sides. But, a breakup from a committed relation can really change your whole opinion on relations. You may begin to feel that you cannot trust others anymore and will maybe stop relations for a long time. But, I feel that we should remember it's the past. If the breakup hurts too much, take a break or a vacation and learn to enjoy yourself rather than sulking at home. If you consider other men as a way to ease the pain, it won't happen. Just keep enjoying life and someone is bound to come by. Hope this helps :)

Hi Vvance, it was really hard to put and create a good relationship, its need both parties to work hard to progress and make a relationship work. But there are also a time when one of the both parties stop to think the good way in the relationship and it end up nothing and break the relationship that you both trying to build. Then the other person leave in a pain. I was just hoping that time that if ever someone could also mend my broken heart and eventually i can give my heart again, but unfortunately its not happen, and i realized that i'm still not yet ready to fall in love again.

i went thro this but it was many many years ago. i had this guy that meant the world to me and i didnt know how i could b without him. we were so perfect we were planning on gettign married. when things ended the wayt hey did i thought i would never find ne 1 else that could have my heart. many of the guys i dated i would say "he means id great but the other was better" i guess i wanted what i had n the next guys. it took me about 2 yrs before i reazlized that no one would match up to him. he was basically my 1st real love that i just had to have. once i realized that it was just another chapter in my book of life that is when the healing began....now dont get me wrong when i did start dating i was scared,worried,nervouse,ect. but i tried to hide it. with this last guy i even went so far as i broke up with him scared he would do it to me but that hurt me and him both more than it did any good because i had finally opeded my heart again more than i had since him. well there is a happy ending i think you just havent found the right guy yet. i am married to the guy i broke up with many times because i was scared and we have 2 wonderful kids. so hang in there hes out there somewhere and only you will know when it is time to give it another shot :)

I really glad that you finally found the right man and the right love for you. hoping with me the same as you do. When that time we broke up i really was so depressed i even get sick because of that, i was feel so stuck in myself and in the past and its hard for me to get up and leave it. But the help of others i successively pass on it.

I think most people do go through this sort of thing, it is ok you know to take some time to have a breather from the relationship thing and learn to love yourself and that is another quality that will attract someone nice...

Your heart is still healing, so maybe it would be best to give it some rest to heal properly... Starting a new relationship has its risks. As long as you are still in love, your new partner might be kind of a replacement - if that's the case, better to be honest, so no one get hurts. We cannot lie feelings. Don't give your heart and trust if you are not ready, a new love will come but don't be in a hurry. I think it's good that you are meeting people, creating friendship with those who understand you can help a lot.

Hi Almond24, meeting new friends now are really big help for me, and that is what i really wanted to do now, making new friends. After of what i been through and realizing that i'm not yet ready to love again, i guess i need to rest my heart first and get myself back to normal again and make it a better new one so when the right one comes i can give my heart and make a love to the fullest.

I think what you do is right. You are active and make yourself cheerful, by meeting friends and getting to know new people, instead of hiding in the room. I would say it's not easy to fall in love again, but you don't have to be afraid. Trust yourself and listen to your heart, look for the right person who can tell you 'I love you' truly and keep his promises. I'm sure you'll find happiness again!

Yes, I have the same situation. It was last year, I was engaged, but in the same year the guy told me that he regreted, he broke with me. After that I can't trust any man, I'm afraid I will be hurted again. I think we just need some more time to forget the pain, we need to belive the right guy will apear in our life.

I really don't wanna think that was true love, or i guess i still believes that true and greatest love will eventually come to me soon. Its not that i still love him, i don't now, but i'm afraid that the one who come will eventually hurt me again.
