I have just been let down by the 3rd person that I have loved, hurts like hell and I am starting to feel that I don't want to get into the same situation again where you offer your life to someone who gratefully accepts. Because I will always remember this feeling of utter complete emptiness.
How many times have you been let down and hurt deeply in the past?

I have the same problem its happened about 4 times to me. But i think that its meant to happen. i know its hard right now...and i know everyone says it will get better and i truly think it will. But you just have to remember there are a lot of good people with good hearts out there. And one of them is absolutly meant just for you. I hope that you find that someone soon.

Sorry to hear that. Time is the only remedy for you now. As to give you an answer to how many times.
There was one who was my brother's best friend and whom I secretly admired from afar
There was the one who fooled me when I was still innocent
There was the forbidden one because of differing faith and values
There was the one I truly liked but did not feel the same way
Then came the one I married - a peaceful moment
And somehow there was one more that I never expected and whom I can never have, because I made a commitment when I married.
So yeah, love hurts; and the only cure for being lovesick is time. Good luck and keep the faith.

Yes it does hurt, and slowly the pain does go away say after about 8 months. Its hard as you will keep asking yourself "why me, what did i do wrong, whats wrong with me etc " Best not to keep a count of how many times you got let down, and just enjoy. Try to think what went wrong b4 ( maybe you are going for the same things, hence getting hurt). Give it time and this empty feeling will slowly go away, there is hope...
Dont go looking for love, friendship first and it will follow, when you are least expecting it. :)

Twice in the past, it hurts like hell you have to move on, there is a jack for every jill, you have not found your true soul mate yet, you need to keep looking, even when you think you have found the right person, you may get let down, there is a saying familiarity breads contempt, that ruins a lot of relationships, trust me i know. good luck for the future you will find someone who loves you everyone deserves to be loved.

You're not alone! It happened to a male friend of mine too (And would you believe 6 times) so we sat down, talked about it and i realised that he was too anxious not to be let down, didn't relax and enjoy the relationship enough (Too worried that he might be let down again you see) so i suggested he shuld take a day at a time, relax and while making his new girlfriend feel special, still have his own life and nurture both! He's been let down once after that but then hey!!! His new girlfriend proposed to him on Valentine's day so !!! Why don't you try this?
Best wishes

Its just the same with me. I have been let down four times and it hurts worse every time. One day, I will get the love and happiness that I have been trying to achieve and so will you. So dont give up.

Gawd I stopped counting years ago. But it might have been my attitude to others at the time. It is hard to trust when you keep getting hurt but try not to treat everyone alike because they are not. You know the only time you get hurt is when you allow people to hurt you. Stay Luck Dirky

At 40 loads and it does get you down sometimes. But if you don't love life, live a little, then love and life will pass you by. Celebrate, settle back, recover and at some stage, get back into things! Courage is a strength!

Every single time, with everything and everyone. It's so hurtful and depressing. I remain optimistic, because without hope, there really no point in carrying on.

a lot.. to many times to count but you press on and try to forget... you live, love and learn that's how it works but don't dwell on the past because it could hurt your relationships in the future. don't give up!!

I have been let down by everyone who I have ever been close to. Sometimes we put them on a pedestal that they really didn't deserve.
