What will you do if you let go of someone you love because of certain issues that you still want to enjoy your single life, Then, time came that you got married but not to her but to a different person that you don't really love. Then you realize that you are still in love with that person and you know that you will love her for the rest of your life. However that person that you let go is already married and has 1 kid and is now living a domestic family life in the suburbs. How will you cope with it? Will you do something about it? or will you just wait time to bring you back together? How will you express your undying love to her or to the world?

... that hurts and that was so difficult.. really regret was at the end of the story,.. .. maybe it was better to keep you r feelings at yourself.. beside you both are committed now.. and you dont even tell that she loves you still too.. ahmmm//... just move on .. i know its hard .. but it was your fault by the way,, turn your feelings toward your partner and forget about the past.. just MOVE ON!!

Yeah it really hurts, deeply as I may say. Yes, i'm committed though but I can't pretend to myself that I don't feel anything about her anymore because she is the only person that I lasted for almost over 3 years and until now whenever I close my eyes I see her, and whenever I breathe I smell her. I moved on in terms of living but loving i don't think so. I love my wife and my kids definitely. That's why I'm with my other half right now because I chose to stand up for my children. However, its hard to think that the girl that you feel and know that you can be with forever is now gone but not entirely gone. She's just there but we don't know. Time just flies so fast..and future is so uncertain..but the only thing certain is my love for her.

Yeah..its really sad. But I guess you guys are right, I definitely have to move on in terms of emotions. However I can not really control what comes natural though your answers somehow help me cope up with what I am feeling right now. Thanks guys.

The only way is to let go. Every choice has it's own risk. When you choos to marry another person, you made a commitment. You don't break a commitment for nonsense such a nostalgic memory. Believe me, it happened a lot in life, and people choose to bury the memory behind and moving forward. If you both are meant to be together you will meet again, and maybe together again. But don't throw what you have now because of something that is not certain. :)

Wow, thanks, That's powerful. But isn't that just compromising with the norms of life? Its not that you'll give up what you have right now, its just that you'll express and reminisce your feelings for her through other stuff like writing songs, poems, art or whatever. This is just not literally that you'll go after her and give up everything you have now. Life is more than compromises and commitments its all about feelings and uncertainties..because I'm sure that there are stuff that really lasts forever. That is love.....

yeah, there are something that last forever like love, but it's just nonsense. How about your love to your family, how about your love to your children? If you can ignore them for one woman, would that means you are leaving something more important behind, and for your own sake you make people that you love and people who love you suffer. You might make a song or poem about her, something that reminds you about her, but that will only make your life miserable. If I were in that position, I will bury those memories alive. I will kill the love and life my life completely without looking back

it will be tricky situation. when you are settled with someone else, and still you love someone else. then it is not possible to be happy. also it can make some problems in the relationship.

Its a separate thing though. You don't mix it with what you have right now. The certain feeling is just your private thing that you have like for instance taking a dump, you don't share it with others and you don't tell it to other people about how you've done it and how you feel about it. Its just your own little secret and besides I don't force these things to occur or to happen. It just comes out naturally. Its two separate worlds that you certainly don't collide with each other.

If you truly love someone, you'd want to see him or her happy and not be selfish. Corny i know but its true

Oh definitely, I was happy to see she's happy but I still don't give up because we'll never know. I can see it in her eyes from the pictures I surfed on her friendster account. Though I won't force or neither do something that will jeopardize her or my relationship. This is just purely a wish and commemorating my love for her, because it really gives definition to what we know as ..Forever.

Letting go is harder than living or thinking about it, because letting go sometimes justifies your denial on things that really matters. Though I will really try to let go. Thanks.

Forget the past. Think about future. You can't go back and change the time. Think about you wife, her love, fer feeling. Give importance to your wife. And about your ex girlfriend as you said she is married and have a kid. Her husband is there to take care of her. so forget her fully.

Its easy to forget if someone or something is not really important. The past is past I do agree and the present is how you veer towards the future. I do love my wife so much but there is still this flicker that you can't just let go because you may not be with her physically but emotionally you're with her. Its kinda of like a cosmic thing. I love my wife and all my sacrifice is dedicated to her and I also feel that somehow she has also someone that she loves before me.

I think that you should start letting go of the past and live in the present now. BE happy that you are married to a person who loves you a lot. I think it's time to accept now that things have changed and that denying this fact makes us not happy in life because we are stuck in the past. Just be happy for her and be happy for yourself

Your past is part of you right now. We are moulded by our past especially if what happened is good. There are no regrets however with what happened but unfortunately I don't kinda feel the love from the present someone maybe because I had or was able to set a standard from my previous partner. I just don't know if my current really loves me a lot like the way the previous one do.
