Seeing everybody breakup all the time all round, I really feel loving somebody is futile.Nobody understands your feelings in reality.All relationships are bound to end in a break up or bitter feelings.Do you feel the same?

Yes, I really think sometimes that there is no use in loving someone. Well, I am not saying this in the real sense of the word 'use', but it is like wasting your time, money and energy. This happens when one has a break-up in relationship or is not in one at the moment. When I had a break-up for the first time, I never fell in love again. Because, it was kind of boring for me. The whole world seemed to be quite beautiful and lovable. There is a lot to look forward too. All seems to cozy that one feels that the time should never run out of time. However, once there is that unwated breakup, then and there all seems to be lost. One curses the same love and the lover. Then is what one feels that love is futile.

I don't think it is because the moment you gave your love then you have to be more aware sometimes love can be wasted by someone. At first you might regret that but try to be more positive and just think that you will be bless more from up above because you showed the love and affection. If the relationship ended up that way then it's not your fault anyway but his so just be thankful for those wonderful memories the two of you spent together. Learn, forgive and forget because one day the right love will come your way and you will finally say to yourself that maybe it's the reason why those things in past happened.

Just because a relationship ended in a break up doesn't mean that all relationship will end in a break up. It only means that that specific relationship didn't work out. If we meet somebody, it doesn't mean that it'll work out. Sometimes we have to look around to find the right one for us.

When I had a really bad breakup, yes, I had the same views as you. That of course only lasted until the next relationship comes around. In all seriousness, most relationships do end but one would not. I see relationships as a way to build yourself up, to realize what you are capable of, the feelings you never knew you could feel. Sure it will end one way or another but at least for some time, you were happy.

I used to have really bad break ups. Shoot, I used to have really bad relationships! I was one of those in it for the long haul types, even when the relationship was toxic and painful. I'm almost 30 now and after making a lot of mistakes on the wrong guys or the wrong circumstances, I found love. Or so it found me when I stopped looking. And it makes me believe again. I used to be very bitter. But I realize now there was always a hopeless romantic hiding deep inside my heart and I couldn't deny her. I'm glad I didn't lose that part of me as things have finally worked out. So far anyway ;p
