looking for true love

November 14, 2012 4:39am CST
Since i was a kid. i only felt true love once. was seventeen then. unfortunately, i was to shy and timid to express my feelings to the girl i loved. until, one of my classmates became her boyfriend. now I'm 26, i saw them yesterday at the downtown. they were so sweet, a picture of a happy family with their kids. i realized my weakness. and now, i always wonder, will i ever experience again the same feeling i have had? will i be waiting for that time to come?

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Well i can understand your feelings very well and how u must have felt when u saw your crush with her hubby and children. I mean most of us feel shy when it comes to confessing our love but later on we regret that we could not do anything in this regard. I think u should forget whatever has happened with u, try to overcome your shyness and be smart enough to confess your love if even happens in the future. I am sure u will get your true love one day. What say?

thanks pal. you know, sometimes i think i might grow old as bachelor, but i also consider that it is good to be in love. i think it is such a good thing to have someone to grow old with, to have children and live a happy married life. but, sometimes, there are really things in ourselves that are hard to change. i'm not that sociable type of guy and i don't usually go to social gatherings, outings, i even have few friends that i consider. could this be a factor why until now i still don't have a girlfriend?

We can never be with the one we want to be with if it was really not meant to be. All we could do is pray that a good person will come our way and hopefully fulfill all our dreams of having a great live with her.

Wow this is a touching discussion . The girl sound sweet , and she and your friend is still together that is good for them . I understand how you may have felt seeing them ( the one that got away) . I believe your true love will come along just let go and give it whenever it comes . You are not the only one in the world that is shy but when that happen again , dont be afraid to let the person know how you feel . Just look at it as nothing to lose .

Nice discussion, true love comes in the right time. Yet sometimes there are already around us though we ignore it. Try open up your heart and eyes to see the world and people around you. And i think you should fight or be strong in what you feel. Don't be coward for your feelings. If you are afraid to be rejected or fail, it's ok it's part of life. Failure is failure if you don't even try to succeed or fight. If you regret means you fail. Be yourself and express your feelings to the one like you never know she is just waiting fo you.

Hi there. I have once experienced that I felt the true love. I wait for him but I'm not really sure if he is the one for me. Now, I have a boyfriend who really love me and accept me as who I am. I believe that you will meet someone who far way better for you. Don't be sad. Everyone has own soul mate. Keep on searching! :)

you dont need to wait for a true love, i think cos you should find your own true love by yourself. you should be open minded person, optimistic and positive thinking. being welcome and friendly to every new people are also good ways to find your true love. love is everywhere but you need a sensivity to find it. maybe you will find it in your own best friend but you dont realize it, or maybe you can create your own opportunity by open a conversation with girls. dont be shy but dont be too agressive. just to be the way you are. everyone is special and you are too. lets go out and find love. dont hold yourself in a mourn atmosphere while envying others happiness. go out and be positive. im sure you can find your true love.

Don't look for it, it will come. Maybe you and the girl you once loved when you're 17 are really not meant to be. Think not of your age but continue to enjoy life. Go out with friends and new acquaintances. and when you meet someone, you'll know that it's true love when you are willing to go and fight for it. God works in mysterious ways and he will surely help you find the right person for you.
