True Love Lost

I lost my true love because I thought I needed to sow my wild oats before coming home and settling down. I thought I had time, and never dreamed that in only one year he would be taken away from me forever. Things happen so fast sometimes and we never have a clue they are even started until it's too late. It was too late because he accidentally got someone pregnant. He was tricked and trapped, and then he was married because he "did the right thing" even though he didn't love her. He never stopped loving me, nor me him but we never got to spend our lives together. Or have children together. Lesson to others: Never let the one you love get away. Hold on to them and damn your urges to take your time to commit. I will always be haunted by my stupidity and what it ended up costing me. Costing US.

I don't know what to say. I hope that one day you will be able to move on as I did. Mourn for your lost but don't dwell in it too long for it might consume you.

It already has..... When I look back at my life now, at the years now gone, I see a life of wasted time and emptiness. All I ever wanted was to be with him, have our family, spending our lives together building something and raising children to now be proud of and remember. I will never have any of that now. I remember the whole time during the years after he broke my heart as I stumbled from relationship to relationship, and drifted from place to place, I always felt I couldn't find my "place" in life. That is because my place was with him...

how many years was it after you have lost him? i am getting an impression that it has happen years ago. it not recent is it? it took me 4 lonely years before i was able to move on and find a new life partner. to some its earlier, it depends on how people cope. i was able to stand up again and move out of my depression when i started to pray. i thought to myself then that there must be a highter power greater than myself to get me out of the dark that has threaten to overshadow me. He helped me, He will help you too if you let Him.
