Here is my LOVE STORY...

It was Nov 3, 2001, a Saturday, when I attended a Planning Conference of all youth leaders in our church... I was 17 then, and she was 15. As I entered the room... the first girl that I saw was her as if NO ONE ELSE WAS INSIDE IT and only HER that I COULD SEE PRETTY CLEARLY... then she waved her hand signalling me to come and sit beside her on a vacant chair. THEN I SAID TO MYSELF... there are still some pretty girls with a nice heart and great attitude LIKE HER. After the said gathering, both of us were appointed to become district staff and so our path crossed not just once but MANY TIMES. We were an ISSUE in our group... we were both teased to one another and it actually pushed us together so close that I start liking her and admiring her. But there is a bit problem... Youth in our church are discouraged to have a relationship if our age is below 18. I do respect this admonition especially that we were leaders and we were expected to follow the said rule for us to be an effective leaders ourselves to our fellow youth. TO CUT IT SHORT... I did wait until she reached 18 while I was on my 20's who was about to graduate on my BS.NURSING course. When I was about to court her... a news was given to me that her parents were strict and wants her to finish her study before having a boyfriend... and so... I've waited for that time to arrived and only this year she managed to finished her study which is actually the same as mine. We had a reuunion last April of all the YOUTH DISTRICT STAFF batch 2001 and on our way home... we had a chance to talk and we both expressed our feelings with each other... She actaully came from a NON-FORMAL relationship with a guy she had loved but she asked me if I could wait for her.... of course I said yes I could... just a week after, she asked me to go to her place to meet her family. And on that special day... WE OFFICIALLY BECAME COMMITED TO ONE ANOTHER... after a grueling wait of 7 years, 5 months and 24 days... I HAD THE CHANCE TO HAVE HER AS MY SOLE AND ENDEARED GIRLFRIEND on the 27th of April around 3 in the afternoon. I thought it was a fairy tale with a happy ending but my guess was wrong... After 7 months, 2 days, 3 hours and 20 mins... She have ended my dream of BEING WITH HER for the rest of my life. She said to me... SHE IS NOT READY! Bu why did she say YES?! She said we were still too young (maybe she is... but Im 25 and not getting any younger) She also said to end it now but still give a spark of hope that we might be able to continue it if we are both ready... But isn't it enough TO WAIT FOR HER for more than 7 YEARS?! And now she wants me to wait for another year or even another 7 years?! POINTLESS! I guess I am just tired of loving somebody who might not have loved me and still trapped with her previous love which isn't me. SHE WANT AN END... I DON'T... I even begged her to give another chance and fixed whatever problem we have... BUT SHE DIDN'T WANT TO. And so... I LET HER GO. And the last thing that I have said as my tears run through my face wass... "I FEEL LIKE A TRASH the instance that YOU DUMPED ME with no choice at all and no chance to do something" Then I walked away without turning back. She insist accompanying til I ride a bus going home. BUT I DONT WANT TO... it is killing me to see her as I leave. And now she is still texting me... asking for forgiveness... Thanking me for all of the love that I have shown.. And saying SHE DO LOVE ME... but too d*mn to end it. What does it mean... I want to get over her... but she keeps on making me feel her presence and even trying to convince me of her love for me. SIGH... I was crying before... but not any more. I WISH TO MOVE ON... But why cant she realize that and keeps her shadow haunting me and pulling my heart towards her. IT IS SO UNFAIR... I am sorry but I feel this way... I WISH IT WILL BE FAIR! Even after a heartace... I could still stand tall and have even a few ounces of dignity left in me.

wow.. well, i guess it's time for you to move on.. it seems like she's not yet ready for a serious relationship.. 7 years of waiting is enough to make her feel special, i mean, it's only up to her if she likes to commit a relationship with you.. but still, you can talk to her, just to clarify things..she's confusing, you know, maybe she still have feelings for you..it's just that she's bit confused what to prioritize right now.. give her space to think things over.. still, i'm hoping that you would be able to patch up things with her..good luck!

Wow! 7 years??? That's a long time of waiting! I think what she's doing to you is unfair. I mean she had those 7 years to figure out if she really likes you and when she had the chance to be with you, she still couldn't see and feel it? I think the reason why she still is making her presence known is because she doesn't want to lose your love and admiration for her but I'm not sure that she will return the same feeling back for you. Sometimes girls (I'm just saying this base on how I felt before ---this is cherry, borg's girlfriend by the way)only like you because of how you make them feel. I know its selfish but its a way of coping with insecurities. Maybe she only likes you because you make her feel special. Take your chance with somebody else... Maybe you'll find complete happiness when you find someone who will love you the way you deserve to be love...

when i started reading your story i was so touched and happy that you too ended together but as i reach on the end i feel bad about it. i know you really feel bad about it the feeling for being dumped by the person that you truly love and you have waited for her for so long and then this was all it takes after all the waiting. I know you too are Christians and as Christians we must just lift all our hurts to God. we may not phantom His plans for us but He has great reasons for it, just trust Him my friend. i don't think you want to drag on a relationship where your partner is not yet fully healed of her past. let her be healed and when that time comes if she comes back to you and you still have the same feeling for her that i would say you too are meant for each other. Pray for it and ask God's healing power that you may be bless with the strength to move on and live a life that God had planned for you. Let's just TRUST Him. Hope this helps. Be tough you are not alone on this!!!

I symphatize with you bro. You are right. She cant get over her previous fiancee but why does she had to text you and assure you that she loves you. Its puzzling. The best thing is to move on.

I'm sorry to hear that my friend. Moving on is a process and it all starts with acceptance. Accept the realities of what happened and maybe it could help you move on. I do hope that someday you meet the right person for you.

you know what the problem with her is that what her mind says is different from what her heart was trying to say! give her time to realize what she really wants and try to move on and dont wait, you'll see time will surpass these things. you'll be better in time.chill!

I think she must be confused. Still at first place why trhen she was ready to commit. it is bad to keep the other partner on toes. it is bad situation. if possible have a ckear talk with her.

That's a sad story.. Waiting for 7 yrs, and ending the whole relationship in just 7 months?? Well, i cant say she's in the wrong.. She's right in some ways, as she's really young.. At just the age of 23 this yr, she still has got alot of opportunities to explore around, make more frenz and have more choices.. MAybe to her, 7 months in a relationship is long enough and thus she wants a break away.. Ask yourself, how is your relationship like in the past 7 months?? Is there alot of commitment, or there isn't much freedom for her?? I do know that u are not young anymore, but she's still young.. ONe should always place their love one's interest b4 themselves.. SO in this case here, u have to think for her.. And if u really love her, u will wait, no matter how long.. If not, it means she's just a passing shadow in your life.. Think about it ^_^

I am not the typical boyfriend who tries to suffocate his girl but instead I have put my trust on her and wasn't even jealous to see her with other guys. I dont want to push her around. I am confident on her. But still KUYA... I will do what you have advised me to do. THANKS A LOT

If I were in your shoe I would feel really bad. And it is not fair with your side. After waiting and showing your sincerity of loving her, it seems that she took it for granted. Just be grateful that somehow you were able to fell in love. If you think you had enough of waiting, move on and continue with your life. It might be hard for you, though you can do it. Things has its own reasons why it happens. She appreciated the love you have given her, that means you have given what you think she deserves. You can find happiness with love, but not all the time. So cheer up!!!! You will do fine!

Hey thats sad indeed my friend. But life is a journey and we all need to move on. i hope that the you will realize that soon and the quicker you realize it the better for you. you cannot wait back for what has gone from your life but rather you will have to move one. Because if you keep waiting and thinking over your past, you will miss out your future. I pray to God that you get a positive love this time. God bless you.
