I had my heart broken many times. Obviously because of love. Love for my parents, friends, siblings, studies and to my special someone.
I have so many unforgettable heartaches especially with my parents. My unforgettable one is back when I was a child. My father was always scolding me and comparing me with my sister. He also called me dumb, stupid, idiot and other hurtful words. I always cry because for me he hates me. And that is why I am not that close with my father but this doesn't mean that I didn't love him.
Another heartache is when I left my friends to transfer here in our place. I really cried in the classroom saying goodbye to them. My friends and classmates gave me gifts as a remembrance of our friendship.
The most hurtful one is when I really need to choose between my parents and my loved one. I do not want to choose between them because I both loved them but I prefer my loved one over my parents. My parents hated me and it was the most painful heartache I have beside from many times my boyfriend and I had break-ups.
I am still thankful that GOD is always there giving me strengths to survive those heartaches and the future heartaches that I may face.

Hi,
Thanks for sharing something so personal. I can definitely relate to everything you have went through and all the heart ache. I have been there and it really sucks.
I am currently going through my most recent heart break. My relationship of 4 yrs ended and it has affected so much more than I thought. However, I don't want to talk about my own pain but maybe share with you somethings I am learning along the healing process I am putting myself through.
I can blame my parents for a great deal of pain they caused me growing up. I can think about the past and even relive those moments in my mind. I can talk about that pain until I am blue in the face. But all of this wont heal me today. I have to accept that they did what they knew, be it some of it was wrong but it's what they knew. And while I could be angry or hurt there is nothing that is going to change to what was already done. I have to look at my wounds heal them and learn.
Mind you, I am still going through this process and I can tell you it isn't easy at all.
As for choosing between a boyfriend and your family. I have been there too and so many times. You have to choose YOU. Someone that loves you, cares for you and claims to want the best for you will never make you choose.
So in every situation always choose you. Choose what makes you happy, choose what's best for you.
I can tell you that I at times have that need to want to please my parents and that's where the pain came from when I was in those situations. But I finally notices why am I trying to so hard to please someone else if I am not happy?
Always choose you because at the end of the day you go home to yourself. You are your greatest friend, your greatest ally. And yes, I agree God is always there to give us strength.

I am with you. It really takes time to heal one's wound. And even though it heals still the scar is their and anytime it may open the wound again. But to minimize the pain you need to accept everything. I know that for 4 years of relationship is not easy to forget. But keep in mind that we do not need to forget everything but to accept it.
Right now even though I am with great pain, I am just moving forward and hoping that everything will be okay. Stop rejecting and looking back the past because it will give you more pain.
I hope you will be fine. I know you will. :)

Hi friend, I so sorry to hear that which is you have broken heart for many times, but you still survival and continue your life. I think you are a strong person.
Yes, it is painful have problem with parents, because we love them but they have different view with our life and our goal. yes, parents often do not understand us. When I was single i also have some broken hearts with my parents about my boyfriend. they often do not like with my loved one.
Everyday I pray to God in order to He give me blessing, so I can find my true love and my parents love him too.
I hope, God will help you everyday and everywhere you are.

In this life, we will always have those times that our heart gets broken, pretty much how we will also always have those moments that we are very inspired and in love. That is life, and that is how we learn. It is nice to know that despite all the heartaches, you are not jaded and you still believe in your ability to love. Just hang on and keep the faith. This is the best remedy to overcome heartaches.

love is painfull sometimes,we trust people ,love them then some of them give us bid disappointments.
me i never prefer my lover to my family,
our family loves us forever,its pure and real love,but we cant trust the person we knew later.
they can change ,so for me its easy to make choice,
but believe me even we sometimes afraid of loving some people,we still do it,because even the result will be bad,we need love and support in our life
happy mylotting
