I had my first heart break when I was 15. Actually, he wasn't my boyfriend. I just expected that we had a mutual understanding. He's a year older than me. So he graduated in high school earlier than me. I was left behind. I used to spend time with me avery afternnon after our class. He came to fetch me for months. So, I expected a lot. I have learned to love him. His kind to me. However, when I ask him if what's really ourrelationship, he said "We're just friends." Right then and there, I had my first heart break. After that, I became man-hater. Haha. How foolish I was. How about you, when did you have your first heart break? How did it happen? Happy Mylotting!

There have always been petty crushes that broke my heart when they found someone else, but I never considered those "heartbreaks" are real. Afterall, they don't notice me at all - they were just crushes. But I think the first time I got my heart broken would be when I was around 21 or 22 years old. I met him online and we because instant friends and we talked for 8 long years daily. He would talk to me about his life in the new country, he was my countryman so we were the same nationalities, but he just stayed in that country because of a job. Anyhow, to make the long story short, I developed feelings over time and I thought he did too. I was too shy to talk bout relationships but it really felt so real. We had other friends online and we'd talk for hours. He would even call me up and send me gifts and talked to my relatives, friends, and even family. Anyhow, soon, he suddenly began losing contact. He was busy. Until he was gone. After 2 years he went online again then declared he had gotten married. I cried my eyes out! Then I got the courage to ask him all my "whys?". He never thought I felt that way. He never thought that something real would come out of us. He said he had felt something too but he thought it was just impossible. I had made my peace with him and the heartache stopped. I allowed myself to get out of the online world, and it made me meet my partner now. I guess these "hearbreaks" lead us to the one that's right for us. So appreciate those little hearaches, but always remember to move forward and never live in the past. Have a great Mylot experience ahead!

im happy you could let that bad moment go. i think that online isnt good. if you like someone online you never know for sure what he really thinks. i think that if we meet someone that is far from us the best is to be only friends. if he loves you then he should come to you and say in person. then yes you can be in a relation. i guess thats the best. i also learnt the same lesson as you. the guy i liked found a gf in his country and deleted me of his life. so i think that online is nothing. if we have the bad luck to fall for someone we meet online and he loves us back then he should come and meet us. and then we see if there will be a relation or not. but to be in a relation without see the person near first not again^^ i learnt my lesson. and i advise everyone not to be in an online relation. cause there are many liars out there. if a guy tells you he likes you then he will come to you. stay as friends until meet in person. dont you think laydee? im happy you found the right guy for you^^

@laydee You're right. These heartbreaks will lead us to the right one. That happened to me, too. I had my heartbreak when I was 15 then I met my husband when I was 17. We got married when we were 21 and now we're so happy with our 8-year-old son. Thanks a lot for sharing. Happy mylotting. Sorry for the late reply.

I had so many puppy love way back then. Modestly aside, I was the one who broke their hearts. The feeling of being young. As I grow older, the level had changed. It is more serious type of relationship.

i guess he did not know what to expect too... Or yes he was kind to. You bwcause he was only being a friend who spends time with friends as often as they can. The thing is i always have in my mind that we girls should never assume about a guys fewlings towards us escially if they have or they did not admit anything to us. As for me... My first heartbreak was when someone itrusted or loved has cheated on me. He betrayed my trust and he probably thought i would still accept him in my life evwn after doing so. I struggled and i was almost always thinking of him coming back and yes he did... But i thought there is no need to reunite because any relationship without trust is bound for hell anways.

Yes, you're right. We should not assume. It's better to wait for them to tell us how they feel. Sometime we can't stop ourselves from falling inlove especially if they do sweet things constantly. I agree with you. In a relationship, there should be trust. If it's gone, it's hard to earn it again. There's always doubt. Thanks for posting and happy mylotting

Dear Angerkarah , As you are saying you got your fist heart break at the age of 15 because of being in love with some guy who was your friend only and didn't love your that's why then its a silly story i think cause science has proven that nobody has his love vessel open uptil he is 18 or above you were just addicted to him cause you were spending too much time with him so you think it that way .. He was a really good friend of you and this might have disturb your friendship and not nothing like this ever happened to me .. Happy Mylotting ..

He wasn't my friend. He was a year older than me. He had his own set of friends and I also had mine. He always tried to be with me every afternoon after our classes. His friends told me that he didn't have any relationship with other women and only me had his attention. Oh, good that you didn't experience any heartbreak. Thanks for posting and happy mylotting.

I have my first heart break when I was in high school. There are some that we have the same situation, in my situation that guy is my classmate, he is also good, kind and gentlemen to me. Then when I feel that I have already feelings for him and my classmates know about it, then when he know's about it, he changed and always keep a distance to me. When I confront him, he said "I just want to be your friend, that's right just only friend". Yes, in that day was my first heart break, but I recovered and become stronger :)

One day I had half jokingly said to the guy who at the time I believed was my soul mate "When we get married..." He looked at me and said "I'm only 22!" Of course some people consider that age too young for marriage, but he had a fiance long before he met me so I didn't see why I was so different. Well, it wasn't so much what he said, but the look he had on his face that really ripped into my heart. I fully believe him to be in love with me. Not only did he say he was, but because of the way he treated me everyone else believed him to also be love me. When I think about it now, it does seem like a very silly thing to have been so upset over.

Oh, I'm glad that you were able to move on now. Yeah, it's silly. Some jokes are halfly meant. Are you still single? I hope you'll find the right one for you soon. Enjoy being single while waiting for the right one to come. Thanks for posting and happy mylotting. Sorry for the late reply.

im sorry that you were heart broken. its hard to understand boys sometimes. if they are too sweet to us we can misunderstand. its sad that he didnt feel the same as you. but dont hate guys. there are good guys. even is so hard to find them. they exist and someday the right one will appear^^ just wait patiently. and dont look for it. when you less expect he will be there near you. im telling you this bcs im someone that dont have much confidence. i always think guys dont look at me. but since im working in a place since 5 monthes there were already two guys interested in me. sadly for me i didnt feel attracted to them cause one of them had a gf and the other one had my mum's age. but im sure the right guy will appear^^ so dont expect anything and just wait. the right guy will appear. and dont forget to be confident about yourself. we are all pretty in some way and the right guy will see it in you^^

@sweetloveforeve I had my first heart break when I was 15. You're right. The right one came when I was 17. We had a relationship when I was 19 and we got married when I was 21. LOL. I'm already married for 8 years now. Oh, so you're still single and available. Don't worry. There are still guys out there. Let's pray that Mr. Rigt will come to your life soon. Be patient. Thanks for posting and happy mylotting.

I had my first boyfriend when i was 15, however he was almost 18 at the time and It didn't really break my heart when he broke up with me because we wanted diffrent things, I would say i had my first true heart-break at 17 when my at the time boyfriend of almost 2 years, broke up with me, it started as a really good relationship for 9 months we never even got in a fight then he moved 3000 miles away and we kept up the relationship for another 9 months, on valitines day he gave me a promise ring and i was suppose to be moving out with him after i graduated. He broke up with me 3 months before i would have been with him, he waited 9 months but couldnt wait 3 more, i was completley heart broken i was convinced i was going to be marrying that boy. I am happy now that it didn't work out because i am now in a relationship of a year in 4 days and i am soo happy with him.

Thanks for sharing. Yeah, I guess we all had our heart breaks and those made us a better person. We should always move on after a heartbreak because we'll always find the right one in due time. I'm glad to hear that you're in a relationship now. Hope you're both happy with each other. Goodluck. Thanks for posting and happy mylotting. Sorry for the late reply.

My first and last heart break when I was 20 or 21 years old. He cheated, lied and take advantage on me. That was very painful experienced and I dont even know how to start a new life during that time. I remembered I am trying to reach my dreams were I need to work far away from him and I need to earn money to support my personal needs and to support my family. But maybe we are really not meant for each other that's why terrible things happened that time. To be honest, I am glad that he cheated on me because I learned how to love and respect myself more than to any one else and after we broke up I met a guy who loves me more than I do and he is my husband now and I am very happily married to him.

Oh, that's good to hear. They say that after break up we learn something from the relationship. It's good that you've learned to love yourself than loving any one else in the world. You can't love others if you don't love yourself. I'm glad that you're now happily living with your husband. Goodluck to your family and God bless all of you. Thanks for posting and happy mylotting.
