I fell in love for the first time around 9 months ago and i had the best time in my life for the next 3 months and suddenly one day he said that he did not want to see me anymore. I was heartbroken and went into depression which took me almost 6 months to come out of it. So Friends... I want to say to all that never keep any expectations. The less expectations u keep the less heartbreak you would have.

A friend told me that what i should say to myself is, "It's her (or his in your case) lost not mine." If I think I am good person, there's nothing to feel bad about myself. Move on!

hi lovelydame,first of all thanks for discussion of this topic.Unfulfilled expectations always cause problems. Try this:-"No expectations fewer disappointments!"Its that simple not easy. We often called thingsthat happen that cause disappoints,problems.To avoid disappointments or problems..as Best you can,have no expectations, good or bad.When you have expectations there are never any surprises because outcome is always predictable. Disappoints follows unfulfilled expectations.The predicaments that follow are predictable.If your relationship is not full of surprises it is mostly like boring and may border on being unhealthy.Having healthy needs is a natural and creative attitude to embrace. It is important to allow your love partner the freedom to fulfill your need their own Best way. Finnaly I would like to say,"Problem are not break us.Working together on problems makes us strong". Thanks once again for this discussion and have a happy ,long love life..
