Yes. Not necessarily in love but I know deep down inside I still love him. Although, I can't picture us together anymore, I just know that he is special to me and that I was once deeply in love with him. I had the chance to meet him again, we went to the place we used to go, settled some unfinished business to close the chapter. I was single again and he had a girlfriend. I thanked God for that chance to see him again but I had no inclination to continue the past. We parted with a friendly hug and a kiss on the cheek. And note that, we never really kissed on the lips the whole time that we were in a relationship or made love because I was 16 years old when he was my boyfriend. hahaha. Very innocent love.

Im very much in love with with my first love, but that is okay cause I married him! We meet when he was 14 and I was 16. Truth be told I hated him at first but he wore me down, thank goodness he did. We have been together for 26 years and married 26.

Dear sheenarobins, During my school days I fallan in love with a girl who was also my classmate. She also belongs to my village. I knew whole of her family. Still i could not tell my love for her due to fear. She left the school on completion of 12th grade. I also left simultaniously after completion of 12th grade. She went to other city to live with her parents. I also left for further study to different city. It is now more than 30 years, I never met her. I tried to find out where she stays. I found out through her family's friend but she left with her family to another city. I went to that city to see her but I could not see her. In my remote corner of my heart, always a feeling exit that I should meet her. I do not when it will happen. FIRST LOVE IS FIRST LOVE.

Hi navtech! You made me smile. I had the same experience. I got married after we broke up but my feelings were still very strong for him. After I got separated, I was 23 years old then, I looked for him but found him again when I was 24. It was the time that I really thank God for caring so much about my feelings that He made a dream come true. I often see him in my dreams, and I know I loved him very much. I got to ask him one question that was really important to me... " Did you really loved me?" and he answered back, "I Love You. And chapter was then closed. You will find her one day because most of the things we aspire comes true. My prayers are with you.

I was young and stupid when I fell in love with my first boyfriend but now that I'm an adult, it was just a puppy love and he took advantage of me. I realized that the differences we've had as our relationship didn't work out gave me a few good reasons to move on without him and find someone better than him. I no longer grieve about him anymore. It's his loss anyway. Happy Mylotting!

Aww...I can relate. I still love my first love very much, but he's now a priest. I still think about him from time to time. I'm not hoping nor wishing this would happen, but if he leaves the priesthood and asks me to marry him, I'd say yes in a heartbeat. I still look at his pictures from time to time. I'm just grateful for the chance to know him. He's a wonderful man. I believe that when we love people truly and deeply they become a part of us.

blindmoongoddess, you really made me smile. That is one hell of a True love there. Who knows when the earth would turn. I certainly believe that one can serve God even when he is married. I'm a born again christian but I do respect the catholic laws. Keep on praying but keep your heart open to new love as well. thank you, girl.

i dont konwn if i still love him any more, but under some occasion, i will think of him. my first love is a guy from my high school, we were not in the same class, but on the same floor. we always saw him when i was standing on the aisle, he was always there too.his cute but handsome face attracted me first, and many of my friends said that he is really a good guy with charming characer. and i was luky , we became firends at a activity at school and after that we would go out to eat sometimes.i found that he was just my style and maybe i could be his girlfriend someday. but the following thing eally depressed me , oneday he told me that a girl he likeed had accpted his request to be his girlfriend. then i knew that he was just treat me as his little sister! waht a wordliness story !but it was true happened to me. after that , i force myself to treat him as my brother too. and now we can rare meet. i think maybe i not love him anymore cause i m not that heartbroken when memorise that experience, maybe i can really treat him as my brother.

Yes in my case I still feel love about her (my first love ) and incidently some times she looked me . In that time I feel same as long ago.still in her eyes same attraction towards me . I feel that she still wants me to be her soulmate.Even after 15 years she didnt forget me and me too. She already settled with her marriage and children but I still feel about her. and I am sure she also keeping same feelings. It was very unfortunate that we didnt meet forever as a life partner.

Unless I come across a discussion like this on mylot, I don't even think about him. I have no reason. I am in love with my BEST love. He is my hubby. He is the father of my children. He is who I will grow old with. Cannot picture life without him.

I would say yes. I have no romantic feelings for him whatsoever. In fact I can't stand him most of the time. But I have sort of a familiar love for him. You know, like that family member that you love but really don't want to be around. That's how I feel about my ex-husband.

I was with my first love for 4 years, we lived together and were plannign to get married, i am not still in love with him but i do still care for him very much. We dont' really keep in touch regularly but we still speak occasionally, we've both moved on, although i know that i would always be there for him if he really needed me and he would always be there for me, it's nice to know that we still care for eachother although we both know that the past is in the past and that's where it should stay! it's funny i was talking to my friend about relationships earlier and he came up, i said to her that it's not that he ever did anything wrong or wasn't nice, he just wasn't the right one for me, so we parted on pretty good terms. xxx

First love ? yeah it"s still remain in our heart. Those things that we cannot forget and still reminds us of a happy moments and bring us excitement inside. Well , being in love to a guy few decades ago and asking if I still love him my answer is no. But i still remember him when i am alone and nothing to do but to remember my moments of younger. He is just a happy memory of my life. and if i gonna see him i will give him a sweet smile. :)

No, I do not still love my first love. He had hurt me so bad that any love I did have for him just left. I have seen him in a few years and that is just fine with me. No need to bring back hurt feelings when I am happy now.

I wouldn't say that I'm still in love with my "first love", but he still kinda cross my mind once in a while...but not all the time. I'm currently in a relationship right now...and I would definitely say that I'm more in love with my boyfriend now than him. He was my first love..but my boyfriend now, is my true love.

i still remember my first innocent love also. we met when i was 10 and he was 11, i did not like him first but because he was persistent,my young heart started to fall in love. we became unofficially bf-gf when we were in grade six, he stopped on his 6th grade and waited for me to reach that grade, and graduated together. i left him without goodbye and it took us 10 years to meet again. we did not talk but during those years i have not seen him, i still thought of him, on how is he doing and if he is married or not. until my papa and i went to the social security department, good thing he did not see me, but i saw and recognized him, and he was with his wife, and i felt like an unclosed chapter of my life has ended,and i felt relieved and happy for him. we could have talked but i never wanted to create a scene.

Well, everything in this life is subjected to change. But no matter how we change, some things still remain the same. I'm talking about my feelings for my first love because after two decades of absence in each other's lives, i still love him so much. It is just sad that we can't continue being friends because we are both married now. He is a great friend and i wish that one day, the feelings will just be like a love for a brother so that we can continue with the beautiful friendship we started.
