What do you do if you realize you wasted your time waiting for someone who will really never be there?

Answer 1

Hey Michael,
Been there, done that. You need to come to the point in your life that you realize that you are just being a hypocrite if you keep waiting. Get on with your life. Do things. See other people. Maybe then the person that you have been waiting for will realize that you are not waiting for them any longer and change their attitude towards you. People don't miss whats always been there until it's gone.

Answer 2

Well u'll probably be in alotta pain right now since u wasted ur feelings and time on this person so u need to take some time out for yourself so u can heal and regain ur self confidence. Engage in activities which appeal to u and seve as destressers, talk to friends and family spend time with them do a bit of travelling and just enhoy life. In time you'll be strong enough to move on and when u do, make sure that u set out clear guide lines very early in the relationship cause this other person could easily break ur heart again and that would not be good. So set standards for urself and in the relationship and stick by them. Let the new person u meet know that u are willing to commit to him and the relationship but only if he is willing to do the same if not u'll know wat to do. All the best.

Answer 3

you stop doing that. now that you realize it was wasted time you learn your lesson and move on. you were waiting so you knew you were essentially gambling on it, you lost. the only thing worse than the time you've already wasted is wasting anymore...so its the weekend get out there and meet someone new! next time if you have to 'wait' for it then it isn't working, now you know, relationships are two way street if you are in a one way relationship its always a waste of time....good luck to you.

Answer 4

I just got through doing that. I had to realize I'm better than this and I can get better than him so why and I hurting and wasting my energy on him when I can put all my energy into some one or some thing else. I think that's all most one of the best decisions in my life

Answer 5

I would realize that I learned a valuable lesson on not waiting but moving on with life.

I think that no time is waisted rather it is time spent learning even when we don't realize we're in the process of learning.

so feel fortunate that you're able to see this! Many people wouldn't even know. Get my point? You're actually able to reason with the situation because you learned from it.

:):) You're farther ahead than you realize you are my friend :)

Answer 6

There is no such thing as "wasted time." However long it takes to learn something is time well spent and is part of your life's experience. Realize this and continue on your journey because you can't go back. You can only move forward knowing that as long as you live there will always be lessons to learn.

Answer 7

Been there, done that. Move on with your life, but not into another relationship right off. Take time to figure out what you want so that you don't end up in this situation again. If you wait he/ she will come to you.

Answer 8

Sounds like we're in the same boat dear. I know it hurts and I know it'll be best to just move on, but I haven't really figured out how to move on yet. Because when your feelings get involved, it's hard to just walk away. I don't know what your situation is but I'd just say to share your true feelings and just let them know how much you care about them, but that you think it'd be best to just be friends; if that's even possible. I think with time, you'll heal.

Answer 9

You pick up the pieces, and you move on. You can't go back. You can simply go forward. Forget about it, and don't carry it into the next relationship . You will look back on it as the best thing that ever happened to you, someday. Good Luck!
