I was brokenhearted, but I've managed to move on...

I blogged this a couple of days ago of my past love I've known for almost 2 years. Met her in the Philippines in Naga City, we dated, grew in our friendship, then turned into love. We went out, dated, got to know each other deeper, then it got into romance, love like it was two people walking on water without looking down or back. Leaving back to California was not easy. Promising her I would be back again to see her - She held on. We called, texted message, always to let her know I loved her and she did the same. Always remembered her birthday and what holidays it was. When needed help I was there, understanding her situation. But then that's when it happened. After Christmas, I haven't heard from her for a while - no text message, no call. Everytime I called her her number was out of coverage or could be reached. She only texted a couple of times late 2007 and beginning of 2008 and that was it. One day spotted her online - I asked her how she was doing and what happened - she turned on her webcam - her face showed no interests of wanting to see me - cold as ice and hard like stone. I asked her what was wrong then she said nothing. Then she asked me, "Do you still love me?" I said, "Why? You know I do?" Then she said, "Do you think we will stay together?" I said, "Of course!" Then I asked her, "Do you still love me?" She said, "No!" Then I said, "What? Tell me you're kidding me." Then she said again, "No I don't love you anymore!" Then she turned off her webcam and that was the last I've heard from her. Later on to find out, she left me for another man. Later on to find out, she been with another guy since I've been here in California. Crushed inside, thorns stuck in my heart, feeling down, black as a dark can be, anger, sadness, frustration, but then I let go. To this day I haven't heard from her. Said my last goodbye and let her go.... The blog I sent out was titled, "All I ever did was love you, but you walked out of my life."

I'm not down siding filipinas. I love filipinas and me being half filipino they are really respectful, funny, beautiful and best to be with. I never said they were bad cheaters. Men and women cheat regardless of race. There are times when people meet up - it works out or it doesn't it. There are those that are faithful and those that are not. So I don't have any doubt in mind there is always a sweet, faithful, pure, loving filipina. Thanx for your response!

no they're not - it can be either man or woman - known people that been through it - i've experienced myself. good thing i'm over it though - and got a great friend i keep in contact - sometimes people have to start off as friends - not to rush it - love a building structure.

I think its the toughest thing to do.To move on.Good that you've moved on.Try to be very careful later on.Its better to have someone closer rather than have them far away.There would be an easier way of meeting and no room for anyone else to break into in your absence.We know that love works in all ways and that the distance doesn't matter at all but, we have to be prudent at times trying to avoid things from going wrong as much as we possibly can.When there is a relationship, it has to be tended to with care,closeness etc It does a lot of good.Over everything faithfulness is mandatory without which it can never work.All the best.

It is a sad story i must say. Very often it is seen that long distance love has tbgis type of ending. But what it seems taht there was no such problem or less love from your end. May be she was not comfortable with the idea that you moved on to different city.Its nice tat you have moved on. May be you find siomeone who really loves you always.

I know you are having a time dealing with your broken heart. I may never feel your pain coz I am not and I was never and have not dreamed of breaking my heart. And I know its not easy to start the year with a broken heart, but its good that you have moved on and finally heal your broken heart in time. Thats always the problem with long distance relationships, there will come a time that love will fade like a flower and waiting is no longer worth it and you cant help but one of the parties give up and and will no longer wait for the one away. What makes it all painful on your part is that she was not able to explian or even share her side of the story. Well, its all in the past now and I wish you a new friend that will hopefully develop into something what we call love. A friend of mine who was in the same situation love singing this song. Im just sharing the lyrics and lets see if you can relate. May be the chorus part is the one for you my friend. Happy singing! On Bended Knee lyrics Darlin' I can't explain Where did we lose our way Girl it's drivin' me insane And I know I just need one more chance To prove my love to you If you come back to me I'll guarantee That I'll never let you go Can we go back to the days our love was strong Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong Can somebody tell me how to get things back The way they use to be Oh God give me a reason I'm down on bended knee I'll never walk again until you come back to me I'm down on bended knee So many nights I dream of you Holding my pillow tight I know I don't need to be alone When I open up my eyes To face reality Every moment without you It seems like eternity I'm begging you, begging you come back to me Can we go back to the days our love was strong Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong Can somebody tell me how to get things back The way they use to be Oh God give me a reason I'm down on bended knee I'll never walk again until you come back to me I'm down on bended knee Gonna swallow my pride Say I'm sorry Stop pointing fingers the blame is on me I want a new life And I want it with you If you feel the same Don't ever let it go You gotta believe in the spirit of love It can heal all things We won't hurt any more No I don't believe our love's terminal I'm down on my knees begging you please Come home Can we go back to the days our love was strong Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong Can somebody tell me how to get things back The way they use to be Oh God give me a reason I'm down on bended knee I'll never walk again until you come back to me I'm down on bended knee Wanna build a new life Just you and me Gonna make you my wife Raise a family

Sorry this happened to you. Whatever it is that transpired between you and her, I don't want to comment. I just want you to know that not all relationships have happy endings. I know it hurts but as you said, you have to move on. There are still better girls out there for you. She's not worth of your love. It's her loss not yours.

Good to hear that you have moved on. Long distance relationship is always difficult. It take both sides to commit. Since she is not the committed kind of gal, forget her. If she can do this to you, she might do this to another guy. She's not worth your loving. Be happy. =D
