My love life seems to be on the right track again. The previous relationship I had, I was hurt very badly. Now I have met someone new, but I am so scared to be hurt again, that I don't know what to do. It's hard to believe in love again. Have you ever experienced that feeling?

I came out of a very bad relationship over a year ago and since then am in a relationship with a lovely man. Trouble is, since my bad experiences of the last one, I find it hard to trust my current boyfriend, am always suspicious and interogating, mostly for no reason. I need to stop it before I completely mess up the relationship.

thanks, I understand how you feel right now. I have the same problem here, but I am fighting against it, because I know it is all in my head, and not everybody is the same. I know I have to give my new love an honoust change. I hope you work it out, so you can gice also your love a change

Yah its nice but not easy because you have many doubt about starting again a relationship and then you just get hurt again and its hard to admit that you are hurt. But at least you have moved on in your life

You have to believe in love, everybody gets hurt sometimes in love, so you got to look forward and believe that it will work out, if you donĀ“t think that way for sure it never will, all the luck my friend and believe in love.

As of this moment I am uncertain of the status of the relationship I'm currently in and that scares the heck out of me. I don't know what I'll do if things don't work out between us.

I think it's normalfor us to be afraid to be hurt. Bu the most important thing when you make a decision to make a new chapter of your love in your life,you must be always sure that the thing /decision that you make is a right decision. Don't fill your head and your heart with doubtness and fear, cause everything like that just makes you far from happiness that you deserve to have with having someone new in your life, Just enjoy it, don't think about abything bad. If something bad happens to you, I think you have already stronger than before have you?:)

yes, that's true, but how you know if you have made the right decision, afterwords it's easy to say. But I know, I have to enjoy and I am trying, but some thoughts are difficult to put away

I've been to seven years relationship with full of happiness and memories yet in comes to a point that he cheated me, i don't forgive him even he explain to me I don't listen then suddenly I met my new partner in life and right now I feel happy again. It is better to feel that love than never feel it.Love is a gamble and its not permanent.Its natural to be hurt when you enter in a relaitonship. So be ready.

It's something normal to be scared after a relationship that didn't worked.The best thing you can do is to make a pause,and after that you can try to involve you in other relationship!

it sure is difficult to get into a relationship when you have been hurt once. it was hard for me too. but my guy is very loving. i took me time to trust him and to come to terms with thw fact that i love him.....but i'm happy i did!! everyone goes through this inner turmoil....its normal.
