i need to know.
Religion and psychotherapy working in connection with each other.
Alternatively, marry me and forget about her.
tell yourself you were too good for her anyway…
Know that there IS a soul mate out there, and you’ll probably find her when you are NOT looking…
And from personal experience - the second marriage is WAY better than the first!!! ![]()
Sorry you are hurting…

I think that is dangerous (to the ego). It creates a false pride. What if he is not really “too good” for her?
no, i am not too good for her. more like just right.
write a hit song about it and make millions. that’ll show her…

well, ok, then she wasn’t good enough for you!
(I’m sure you can use some ego boosting right now, with no long term detrement!)
Missy
well, actually she was just right for me too.
Whistle a happy tune. That may sound like a flippant response, but it really can help. Remembering to enjoy the good things in life, such as friends, music, food & drink, etc., can go a long way toward making you feel better.

bunch of BS!
Wire brush and Detol. No wait, that’s something else…
Your heart has to mend itself a little at a time each day. The time will pass. Just keep putting one foot in front the other and have faith in time.
Well, I was going to tell you to get rip roaring drunk, dance your derriere off till dawn, and then nurse your horrible hangover the whole next day. But since I’ve never tried it, I can’t say that it works. ![]()
I’m sorry that your going through this, amar! Really, you just have to keep on going and try not to think about it all. Do lots of things that you love to do (in which the first part of this post would more than likely apply
)…play your favorite whistles and your favorite tunes, put some really great music on your stereo (you DID just get a new receiver, right?), have a good cigar and a great glass of whisky, and just not think about it for a time. Clear as mud?
Amar, I’m trying to end a 2 1/2 year long rollercoaster ride of a relationship. The part that hurts the most is I allow her to call and visit me whenever she wants.
Sever the realtionship and don’t talk to her anymore.
she works on the same ward as i do. i see her every day.
All to often we think that things are “just right” when in fact they are way out of kilter and we just haven’t come to grips with our own genuine wants, needs, limitations and the like.
IF you were really right for each other, you probably wouldn’t be seeking salve for a broken heart.
The best thing you can do is learn from it for your own betterment. Be more honest (with others and with yourself), more keen on observing cues, more open to compromize. If you become a better person for it, you are less likely to lose again.
There is always hope. Again, go on living your life… IF you are really meant to be together, it will happen. If not, something even better will.
Hang in there, and keep repeating this mantra… “This too shall pass…”

Coffee black, cigarettes,
start this day, like all the rest,
First thing every morning that I do,
is start missing you
Some broken hearts never mend,
some memories never end,
some tears will never dry,
my love for you will never die
Rendezvous in the night,
A willing woman to hold me tight,
But in the middle of love’s embrace,
I see you’re face
Some broken hearts never mend,
some memories never end,
some tears will never dry,
my love for you will never die

That’s what my brother-in-law said about his kidney stones, but they had to operate anyway. ![]()
amar: “Time heals all wounds.” Or is it, “Time wounds all heels”? I can never keep that straight…
But don’t move on and feel better right away. Take time to savor sadness and just to feel how you feel right now.
One day you’ll be able to look back on this time. While you’re in it, though, be gentle with yourself. A broken heart is a trauma like any other.
Take care.
