Love is a myth...?

Question

So how many of you can relate to this... Breaking up with my g/f... Isn't life grand?!

Myth
Anger towards my soon-to-be EXwife. *short version...

Closure is elusive, it hides it's face from me.
Running with the answers while it breeds uncertainty.
The paths that line my troubled heart, are treacherous by far...
Nothing I can say or do will hide this mental scar.
Trust is but a word we use to sugarcoat our fears...
You manipulated me with love and found those hidden tears.
You left me in my darkest hour, and locked the inner door...
Reminders are the photographs that lie upon my floor.
Anger is the biggest thing that occupies my mind...
Resentment in my quest for truth that you made hard to find.

You took a word so beautiful and used it towards your gain...
Who'd have thought that love would be the source behind my pain?!
So now I'm left alone to cope with storms that rage within...
Questions plague the hopeless world to which I'm living in.
I wish that I could see the light that guides the world it's way...
Something that would show me peace into my everyday.
I pray the rain will wash away the stains you left behind...
So I could see the better half of me I left behind.
Is there such a thing called love, or is it just a myth?
I'd like to know, and just let go of what I'm living with.

Answer 1

I'm not gonna say that time heals all wounds...it doesn't. Not really. You have to put some work into it yourself, and that usually takes a while, which is why people assume that time is the healing factor.

Love isn't a myth, puddin' pop. Love's real...but it doesn't always work out. A lot of other sh!t gets in the way, and that's not love's fault, or yours, or hers...you have to remember that people come with a lot of baggage even if they're basically happy and good. A lot of things can ruin the bond between people, but don't get bitter because this relationship didn't work out.

You'll have to let this one go--it hurts, but remember that every time you let something that isn't working go, you give yourself a chance to find something that DOES work. The waiting is the hardest part, as Tom Petty says. But when you fall in love again, you won't give a damn about what happened before, and you'll have a fresh new chance as long as you work hard at letting this bad relationship go.

Don't be too angry at the fact that this didn't work. I know you're hurt, but you tried something and it didn't work. Now you'll know something not to do, right? Cold comfort, I know. Just nurse your wounds for a while, DON'T date again too soon, and focus on what you want to do the next time. At some point, you won't be wallowing in misery and you'll be all set to move on. Spend some time with your buds, catch up with your family, take a class, something like that. Spend time with people that will remind you why you're a good person and deserve a good relationship.

Good poem, by the way. Better than the crap I've written when I was bummed out about love!

Answer 2

Love is not the myth... The myth is created by visions and expectations that we invision as and when we fall in love.. We find this beautiful creature, spend every waking moment with them and soon realize that we can't live without them.. Hopeing we will spend the rest of time with them only to find that soon enough we begin praying for the end of time... Maybe this relationship was not meant to be and maybe it is time to end it. What you need to do is use this as a learning experience. No relationship is perfect and over half of all marriages in the US end in divorce. Everyone expects fairytale endings, noone wants to work through problems which do and will arise in every normal relationship. Fact is, for a relationship to be healthy, you need a few spats to work through, this will strengthen you as a couple.. Now take some time off from the girls, spend some time with your buddies, take up fishing, go on a trip, see your favorite band in concert twice. Get to know you, and get comfortable with yourself. During this time figure out what it is you want in your next relationship. Now, don't go looking for love, but let love find you. The 2 keys to starting and keeping a healty, loving, long lasting relationship are, trust and lack of jealousey. Remember to spend time apart and to cherish the time you have together. Find the little things in life that make you happy. Learn gratitude for them, cherish them, and nurture them... Good luck my friend and beleive me, love is somewhere out ther for you. When we stop running our own lifes we begin to make them better. Pray.
