Have you experienced first love? Have you forgotten her? him?
I have met quite a few Eves and just like the passing of day and night they all fade away into forgetfulness, except my first love. Time and again she's in my mind, vividly I can hear her sweet voice. She was in 3rd year high school I was in 4th year high in the same alma mater when we first encounter. How I wish to recall those sweet bygone days. Whenever I have vacant time, especially Saturdays and Sunday I would try to pay her a visit, if not take a long look at her. To me her presence was balsam. But now I have to face realities we were not meant for each other
Waters plenty of them have now passed below the bridges. I married not her. But within the inner recesses of my heart my first love still lingers. What will I do to forget her? Will I bring her memory to my grave?

We don't try to forget someone, just try to have no feeling toward to that person anymore. I think it is normal when you can't forget your first love...because we never forget anyone except we lost memories of them only.
After the love is broken, i don't keep contact or anything related to the ex- any more, so that when someone reminds me about him, i have no feeling at all, all is the past already and i am living for the present only...

but ryanong, we're composed of the past, present and future. Man grow strong based on his past experiences. It's really hard to forget past, especially whispers of lost love. Shall I tell a lie to say nothing of her angelic face. First love, give me peace!

Ya, as i told, we don't try to forget someone because our memories are still there. We just try to have no feeling toward to the ex- anymore....I think when it just happened, it is really hard for you to be normal back but time will help you to be ok soon. Don't worry, just try to live in happiness every moment and think positive..you will see the life is still beautiful...
I got many problems in my life since i lived alone, but i am still happy with this life, because it is what we should experience, should enjoy...
I wish you all the best!

Wow, I could feel into my senses the love that you have for your first love. As if I am the one you are talking to hehe.
I've experienced my first love when I was in my third year in high school and he was in his fourth year in high school and we have the same alma mater also.
Time and again I always remember him, and the memories that we shared, I believe will forever remain in my heart no matter what happens.
We did not end together but he will always occupy space, a very special part in my heart. Though I may not know if he also still remembers me or once in a while he thinks of me, it is okay with me, but my heart is wishing that I still do occupy even a little space in his heart. And that someday when we had chances to see each other again, we could exchange smile and say Hello to one another.

It's seldom that I hear sincere words of love and that comes from you. He's so lucky to have a place so special in your heart. He makes your heart aches and makes so happy perhaps at times and it's the same emotion I have here for my lost "J". I really can't forget her flowering days, her gentle voice; they're still balsam to me. "J" wherever you are, I'm just here.

Hi Nicanorr! Glad to note that in one way or another I was able to touched your heart. Though we don't know each other, I am very much thankful I got a chance knowing you through the discussions that we have here in mylot.
I do not mind at all if in any chance you could tell him that I still care. For I will forever care for him, no matter what happens and how our relationships ended. Wishing you and him good life forever.
Have a happy day always!

I know how this feels, and I think that everyone remembers the person who they first loved. For me, it was a man who I knew when I was around 16, but I know that he never loved me back in the same way that I loved him. We were always best friends so very close, but he wasn't interested in me at all. I actually think that it was even harder because I was so close to him, but there was nothing that I could do about it so I just had to cope with the way that things were. I don't talk to him anymore, but do still think about him now and again.

Everyone always remembers the first time they really fell in love its normal.
I wouldnt worry about it if you find yourself thinking about her just try to turn your mind to a diffrent topic. To be honest i remember all the guys i have dated altho i mostly remember how they all hurt me in the end but, i can remeber a few good things. But, now i am happy in love with my current boyfriend, we been together almost a year and i think hes the one.

I wish you luck and happiness music... really love is wonderful, it brings both joy and sadness. It is I think the reason why the world go round. It is the hum of bees and the cry of a new-born baby. without love everything will be colorless, dull and lifeless. It is love that makes and unmakes nations. It's everything in the truest sense of the word. Thanks for the response. Wish you good luck with him.

I took a long time to forget my first love as well. Until now I still remember how I felt when I first fell in love with him. I always feel the spark when I talked about him. My break up with him has been 10 years ago, but still, he is never gone.
I am in love with other guy now, but differently. It is not the same feeling I felt for my first love. I admit I love this guy I am with. However, my first love is never gone. He is still there in the corner of my heart. I think I will bring his memories with me to my grave.
He is married and got 2 beautiful children already. I am happy for him. However, I sometimes wish that I were the one that going to be his wife. Maybe we are just not meant to be. So yeap, I will keep his memory with me to my grave..

I think that our first love will always have a special spot in our hearts. But since you said that you are already married, I think that is kind of unfair to your spouse to be really thinking about your first love. I mean what is the use of thinking about her all the time when you know that nothing more could possibly happen between the two of you? It is normal to be reminded of special people from our past but it is not good to entertain thoughts of more than just remembering the person. I hope you get pass this. Coz if not, it might affect your relationship with your spouse.

Hi, jenny1015, your advice is well appreciated. My wife knows everything about her. When longings from the heart comes out, they must be set free or they may have negative effect in us if kept secret and concealed. Yes- as someone has said here- I'll bring her memory to my grave.

I remember my first love but there is no special feeling anymore. It's just a thing of the past that already passed and cannot be brought back no matter how hard we think of it. My love and my whole love belongs only to the present love that I have now.

Oooo. I like your poem! I guess it's a poem? Anyways, I don't think I've had a first love. Aren't first loves way more important than crushes? I actually think so. Anyways, first loves are unforgettable. I think. Get a new girl.And just move on from her. O

In the still of the night, I can hear her sweet voice whispering words of love, of never-ending promises that we'll never part. Now she's gone with nothing left but her memories. The scent of her breath just cling to me- oh lost angel, what have you done to me?

Hi friend, sad to hear about your story. It is really hard to forget about our first love, if our love is sincere. But as per practical, we must try our maximum to forget the past things and concentrate with the present one to live our life in a good way. Divert your thoughts and concentrate with other things. All the best

i still remember my first love when i was in my senior years. i was 16 back then. it felt that time was the best times of my life. but our story ended the way we dont want it to be. but that was just long ago and prefer to call it puppy love. =) now, i am mature enough to understand love. i am blissfully happy and satisfied with the one i love now. yes, i can still remember my first love, but not with the feelings anymore.

I will never forget my first love because I'm happily married to her. I've loved her since I was a preteen.
