If not then they never were yours.

Why take that chance of the one you love not coming back?

I believe in that saying with all my heart. I met Gary when I first graduated from high school. I was only 18 and he was 26. For me, it was love at first sight. I don't know how to explain it, but it was the most amazing feeling! We tried dating for awhile, but at that time in our lives the age difference was more of a problem than anything. He was older and had already been out in the world for some time and I was just getting started. I guess I just wasn't mature enough-- after being sheltered so greatly by my parents growing up, I wanted to get out and try new things, travel, see what it was like to have a little freedom, etc. So, even though I loved him dearly, Gary and I broke up. Since then, I married and had 2 children. I never forgot Gary-- and I never stopped loving him. My marriage ended up not working out and about a year after I was divorced, Gary appeared almost out of nowhere. Wow! And the funny thing is, we are now married and I have never been happier in my entire life. He is good to me, he treats my children as if they were his own, and we all get along great and are a happy family. The age difference doesn't matter anymore. It was almost like I had to let him go so I could see what life was all about-- to make mistakes, to learn valuable lessons from my mistakes & experiences, and grow as an individual-- before my true love came back to me. And you know, the wait was totally worth it!
Sorry for rambling. This is just a soft spot for me. ;) Just remember, if it was meant to be it will happen. It might take a few days, a few months, or even a few years...

I'd like to believe that saying is true. Actually, I'm going through something to that effect now. A year and a half ago my husband and i separated. Actually it was a very painful time in my life it still is. He let me go so i can find my way. So far every road i have traveled down has lead me right back to wherever he is. We're not getting back together anytime soon but deep down i know where i belong.

Yes its very true... we might want some one in our life desperately but we must give others the space to decide or realise if they want us the same way.
a good relationship is a 2 way hold, trying to hold it one way wont stand for long... so should wait for the other person to hold you.......decision will take time.......if its not happening let go.......but if your gripped back you will never be left off......
quick starting relationship end quick
slow starting relationship sustain (coz its taken time and decided)

I think that once they leave you and you have given it all your effort to show them how much you love them, why bother to even see if they come back? I think I would only do it so I could maybe throw eggs at their car or b i t c h slap them for leaving me in the first place. I'd say "You fool don't leave me then expect my a$$ to come back to you just cuz you come crawlin' back you moron good fer nuthin piece of crap". That's what I would say because looking back the ones that left aren't worth taking back anyway....

Yeah that could be true or they are just afraid of being alone and you will let them come back until they decide to move on again

i say it's true, because thier may have been some issues that yall needed to reslove. so yall split apart, whatever and became mature or seen that anything else wasn't the same with out the other person and yall needed eachother or missed eachother. you'll know it if both of yall can't stop thinking about eachother when yall are broken up.

It's true but I think what it really means is that you cannot make someone love you...he/she has to have that feeling for you come from within them...

A friend of mine actually had it happen that way. His name was Forrest, Forrest Gump. Actually noone knows...everybody is too afraid to let go the first time because they might not come back.
