Since I've found the right person, I suppose I should say "Oh, I'd want to dieeeee"... but it's not true. It wouldn't bother me that much. I've always been someone who believes it's better to have never loved at all than to have loved and lost. Yeah, love's great and all (and I'm seriously mushy and romantic, I can assure you) but it's also overrated. An odd point of view, I know.

i understand^^ you just prefer to have a calm life right?^^ love is good but complicates our lives thats true. anyway i dont think that our life can be so happy if we dont have someone that loves us. we all need someone to loves us back sooner or later. i say this bcs i take love too serious. i know maybe i shouldnt be that serious about love but i am. i wish i could be more relaxed sometimes but im just way too sensitive ^^

ahah cats? ^^ well thats funny bcs in the place im working we have a few clients women that love cats a lot. i dont want to love cats so much when i get old ahah^^ they talk about their cats like they are their kids. they are like crazy for those pets^^ anyway i understand what you mean. we can have a pet and be like a part of family too right? like a kid like it is for these women. but i guess that with people we can have a deeper connection bcs they can talk back ahah^^

Before I " fell" for my ex, I thought love wasn't for me. i had friends and a job I love but romantic love was for others and then this guy said he loved me? Me? Really? Anyway it was fleeting and I got my heart broken. But it was a good thing . Why? I took thr time to mend and in the meantime my heart remained open and as soon as I was well enough and willing, I met my guy , my One! So I went from not believing that love was for me to having so much love in my life. So to answer your question, unless it is a message from G-d or your Deity , Don't Believe It. There is someone for everyone! I'm living proof.Your One may not look how you pictured him/her but they do exist.

Do you know for sure? Can you contact him? He may be thinking the same thing about you. It is hard to keep a long distance love affair alive but it isn't impossible! Don't give up until you are sure , really sure it is over! But if it is over, just give yourself some time to grieve and then , when you are ready, try again . Never give up. Your match is out there. Take Care.

Hi! For me, hell no! I don't care if I don't find that so called right person. For me, life is not just about finding someone to love. I already got a lot of people to love, my family, friends and I'm still meeting new people who are good friends. For me, it's not that important to find someone to "share" your life with. Share yourself to everybody and make them happy and make yourself happy. For me, that's better.

I think I would want to die. My husband is the love of my life and if I didn't find him then I wouldn't ever be truly happy so what's the point of living if your never going to be happy? I think you will eventually find the person your truly meant to be with. I think if your looking for them you will find them. Your young so just give it some time. =) You will find the one!

he loved me^^ and he just said a few time ago that he keeps loving me.. the problem is that we live very very far. im portuguese and he is a filipino. its super far. i have a job but i cant be paid bcs im working in my family's restaurant and the business is going like super bad :( my country is crossing a big big crisis. and he also didnt find a job yet i think. but the truth is that i still feel that he is meant for me. for two years he was after me for me to love him. i liked other guys and he always waited for my love. the only problem is that we are always so so far. i tried just to find even an online job in part time that could pay me like teaching english or something but is being like super hard. in my countries is being impossible to find other job.. but i dont want to lose him for sure.

i thought that i found the one already.. but he is being so so different now. i dont even know what to think anymore. but like you say, im very young yet so i can for sure find a good guy that will love me for who i am^^ i wish that this one just loves me again.. i love him and i wouldnt like to just let him go.. but if he lets me go then it just means that i never was a big love in his life right?^^ sometimes i feel a bit confused about actions in love.

Here is a quote I absolutely love and I think it applies to you here. If you love something (or someone) let it go, if it comes back it's yours if not it was never meant to be. Let me ask you this, if he never loved you or doesn't anymore do you really want to spend your life waiting for him to love you? Or would you rather find someone that loves you without even trying? I would rather someone that wants to love me I don't wanna push him into it. You know? If he doesn't love you then he doesn't deserve your love either... It will get easier with time trust me. I have had many heartbreaks. One I can think of was harder than any other but when I realized what I am telling you now I didn't want to waste anymore of my time and heart on him...

If I would not find the right person, I would not want to die. There is a life to be lived, there are objectives to be reached out there, even if I were single. There is really no marriage that is made in heaven. There are times when the couple is happy, but there are times too as if one is going through hell as far as emotional relationship, financial stability, etc. are concerned. What really counts is that both are determined to make a go of it, no matter what, day after day, hour after hour. And you must believe with your partner that the next day, the next week will be different. There are times too when you doubt sometimes whether you have chosen the wrong partner. That's normal, even if at the beginning of the relationship, you thought the person was the perfect match for you. When you are in this mood of doubt, try to count what you have done together, what has made you happy with him/her, what good (family, friends, relatives, material things, sense of well being, sense of fulfillment, love, respect and regard, etc.) has the person brought to your life. In other words, COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS with him/her. Then you will realize, especially when you have lived together for a long time, that you will never ever exchange him/her for all the money and any other beauty or handsome boy in the world.

i like when you say that we realize that there is no money or beauty in the world that can be better than to have the one we love near us. about me im in a very sad and bad situation.. i feel that i lost the guy i love so much and i dont know how that happened. thats why i value love so much. bcs since i started to feel that i lost him my life is just being harder and harder. sometimes i just want to go and cry a lot. i dont want to lose him :( i just feel that i lost his love ...

Perhaps your feeling that you have lost his love is unjustified. He may just be distracted with work and other concerns. But in case you are not really very sure, test him by inviting him to let your relationship evolve into a higher plane, such as an engagement ring, for example, or a common account in preparation for marriage and family, a house in both your names, a business done together, or whatever that signals a deeper commitment to each other and to which both of you can commit and can do wholeheartedly and consistently together. But always, make him feel that you are there for him, providing him inspiration, emotional support, understanding, companionship, whatever. By doing this, you attach him to you. But don't be too suffocating to him, and to yourself too. Do not submerge yourself too much. Always keep in mind that you also have a life outside this relationship: your original family, relatives, and friends.

Remember that you cannot put your happiness in somebody else's hands. I think if I am to know that I will never find the right person, then perhaps I would better enjoy myself finding other things or people to love. Love doesn't come only by the men or partner we can have, but by other things as well. If a man can't love me, why not just adopt kids or have kids of my own. These kids I guess would love me more than any man/partner would. It's sad really that most people are lonely because they think that it's only the love of a partner that can make them feel whole. There is other forms of love, a more pure and honest one. As for wanting to die, I don't think so. Why should I die if I can't find the right person? does this mean that I'm just worth it when somebody loves me? I wouldn't be in this world if I would live life full of insecurity. You can be happy. It's up to you if you want to truly be happy. Have a great MyLot experience ahead!

When I was young and in a terrible state of depression all the time I did feel like I wanted to die because I didnt think I would ever meet anyone. Now I have my kids and honestly if I wind up alone I dont care. My kids mean more to me then the love from a man.

I think, it would be selfish of you to want to die just because you didn't find the right person. You have your family, who loves you so much, so your wanting to die will be an expression that they are not important to you. Love knows no age, so you don't know if later in life your right person will finally come.

If i couldn't find the the person that God has prepared for me its ok. Coz i know there are some people out there like friends and my son who would love me more and more. My world will not stop just because i have no partner. God is there too to love me also :-) So don't be sad for sure your family would love and care for you more and more each day.

Finding the "RIGHT ONE" is a quest life has given us. It is a spice of life that we must savor while we live. Keep in mind that all of us should have our better half and it is our mission to find him. Now, if you give up finding him definitely you wouldnt have him. And if you think of killing yourself because you have lost the hope of finding him, you can be the so-called biggest loser on Earth. Prank as it is that's what i could say about this.

7 Jul 11
Life without love is more of an existence, it has no purpose or reason to go on more importantly no one to go home too. I could not live a lonely life. I need love otherwise I just stop, my life stays in some kind of stasis frozen in time. But I would never end my life because of it, there is always something to live for if your life has no love you must dedicate your time to finding it.

It would be sad but I would not want to die. There are other things worth living for besides love. I have been lucky and had more than one chance to love. There is a down fall to love. You always take that risk of getting your heart broken. With every relation ship I have had I always made sure I kept enough distance that if they left me I new I would still survive. My husband get aggravated with me because I am so independent. I tried to explain to him that it's not because I do not love him. It because nothing in life is guaranteed.He may not always be there and I may have to survive on my own. Some people get so involved and dependent on others that if something happens they are completely crushed. I have seen it many times with my friends. You can love but just be causes. Have a blessed day!
