ok I want to know who here still carries a torch for their first love? and if so is it effecting your current relationship or your life? do you plan to do anything about it? I have a little story here about my first love. We went out for about 2 years when i was 18 and lived together (im 29 now lol) well when we broke up i was devastated and honestly thought that i didnt want to live without him tut! I wont go into details cause it would take a long time but eventually i moved on and tried to forget about him, which was soo hard. Moving on in life i still often thought about him and wondered if there was ever a possibility of getting back with him, or running into him etc. Well finally about 4 years later i did run into him at a nightclub and he we hooked up, soon as we did i realised that i had absolutlely no feelings for him left in me!! This was a shock cause i often thought and dreamnt about him, i had to let him down gently hehe. So I learnt a life lesson outta this. Dont hold onto the past when it just might not fit into your future:). Let me know what you think and if youve been through similar etc. Thanks in Advance for your responses xx

I don't carry any feeling for my first love except that he was the first one I ever loved . I will never forget him as he was a big part of my life and he was my first but that is as far as it will ever go for me .I was devestated when we broke up also and thought I would never get over him , but I did and it helped me to be the person I am today . I love my husband and without him I wouldn't have the children I have today and they are my world .
