Have you ever been in love? Where you felt that this person was the one? However, overtime you realize that you and your significant other was not the one for you? Have you had your heart broken? How did you get over it? At what point did you realize that it was over?

Yes, I was in a 6 year relationship with my first love and we have a BEAUTIFUL child together but things became complicated between us and we split up a few months ago. I knew it was over once I gave birth to our son. We started to fight more and hated to be around each other. I love him as the father of my chikd but i'm not IN LOVE with him anymore and i'm sure he feels the same way. Yes, my heart is broken but it's not because i'm not with him. It's because I wanted to have my happy little family (mommy, daddy & child) all together but this is real life and not a fairy tale and I know it's better for our son if we are not together. This is your question so i'm wondering if it applies to you. Have you ever been in love?

Yes, I have been in love. Unfortunally, it has come to an end because I was working overtime and it affected our relationship. We were constantly arguing about him wanting me to change and I wanted him to change. I learned that the only person that can change is that individual. I was in love with him before but as our relationship progressed he changed into a different person. He wasn't the same person I fell in loved with. As for your situation, one of my close friend was in a relationship with her baby father in which she was constantly arguing with him. She decided that it was best that they stopped going out. She fell out of love. It wasn't healthy for her child to see them constantly argue and to stay in a relationship just because one has a child toegther. In the real world, there are alot of children who don't live the typical mommy,daddy, and child family. Things happen for a reason and Im sure someone better is out there for you.

Thanks for the compliment. However, work did get in the way because we started seeing less of each other. At frst it was everyday than it came down to 4 times a week to 1 day a week and then once every month. It wasn't working out because we hardly see each other and when we did we just argued. It wasn't a healthy relationship and thats why it ended the way it did.

I've been in love many times and hope to do it again before I die. None if it is perfect, but it's great while it lasts and rough when it ends. But, it's a great, great feeling and I certainly would not want to live without it because I've had a broken heart, or two. It's just too much fun to pass up.

I have been in love and I really thought he was the one... but as the time goes by, I realized he was really not the one for me.. of course the thought hurts me but there's nothing I could do except accept the fact that he really is not meant for you....I just keep on thinking that there's that someone way off better than that person you think is perfect for you...and is going to treat you much, much better than the other one treats you...

I've been in love my whole life I can say.. and yet I am with the very same person.. sometimes I fear that I'm not being loved the same but I immediately wipe away this feeling by contacting her and listening to her lovely voice and it's great! everything goes back to normal again.. this is real love I think.
