I remember the one who got away. It has put a wall around me. I have a hard time getting close. I have been with my mate for 17 years and I do love him. However, I always wonder...what if? For me it has been almost 30 years. We were never sexually intimate but, he was my first love. Oddly enough he was at my wedding. On my wedding day I prayed for him to stop me.
We had a fight before I started dating a mutual friend. After the wedding everyone told me he was sick over not saying something. He was afraid I would reject him. He also did not want to disrespect my husband at the time. Ten years later I divorced and tried to find him.....he was married with children. I walked away!
I have learned he is divorced now but, I do love the man I am with. Yet, part of me mourns the loss of what could have been. He has contacted me and asked to talk. I chose not to...I respect my husband too much to take a risk.
My Advice...Always follow your heart!

We met when we were 12 and dated 'til we were 15 because I had to move away. We kept in touch and went to his Senior Prom together. Our parents wanted us to marry and so did we but somehow we lost touch; I married someone else and then he did too. We both divorced and took up where we left off for a short time; his career took him away. Then we again married other people, but we are still very much in touch an attuned to each other. He lives out west, I'm in the east. When he 'comes home' we still get together without our spouses and we still love each other very much. We have a wonderful relationship that I wouldn't trade for anything. Guess we just weren't meant to share our lives on a daily basis this time around, but no heartbreak. We just figure that when we're old and wrinkled and can't do anything but hold hands we'll finally be together and be very happy that we can still hold hands.

Stop living in the past! Ultimately we all make the choices that we want to, and if you didn't go for it back then, then you didn't want her enough to overcome whatever you saw as an obstacle. Some soul mate you are.
Pining over a lost love is just an excuse for not getting out there right now and taking emotional risks. Don't be such a coward!

Ahhh, maybe so. The grass is always greener as they say...
You can't assume the two of you would have turned out great together.
Besides, as the woman's handbook for relationship clichés states; "you broke up for a reason".
Incidentally, I'm a "one who got away", and I would NEVER go back.

I'm sorry, please try not to be too sad. You are going to make some very special person a very wonderful mate. I have one that I'm GLAD I let get away!!! If I hadn't I wouldn't have my wonderful husband of 34 years! Bet that!!

"could have been soul mates" you are if you are. not could have been. stop looking back and start looking forward.
and,,,, you do know now so stop beating yourself up for the marriage that didn't work and get out there and start having fun.

Amen, my friend. If only people knew things ahead of time, they could save a whole lot of heartache and pain.

That makes me smile, because I am the one that got away. I'm just waiting for the day he realizes it.

I wish my ex would realize that... but there's nothing I can do. For all I know he may be wth someone else.
It's been ten years. wow!
