In your opinon do you believe taking "time". . .serious time . . .months or even years. . . "apart". . . can sometimes be the only answer in some relationships?
Has this ever happened for anyone out there?
What was the result?
Time waits for no one man. . .but, true love waits forever?
You must set it free for it to return trully yours?
I need to learn to live without loving. . .I'm afriad this imparticular grown man will NEVER grow up enough to have a committed adult relationship. . you know one that shares responsibilites, passions, sacrificies, comprimises, and . . .well. . .life. . .
Unfortuantly, time does heal wounds. . .and normally the "pain" of an ended relationship succeeds with time. No amount of time has done that for me. . .and I beleive I will alwya slove this man,
Always.
What do you think?

I can tell you first hand that the heart will never forget, the mind can settle and justify feelings, but not the heart!
I know this because next week I am meeting with a woman who I haven't seen in 15yrs and she has always been the "one that got away" for me....I'm hoping she still also feels the same.

I was married for over 25 years. I left my husband 6 different times. Usually for a month. One time for a year. I've finally had it. He hasn't the time for me. He is madly in love with his job. I married a paycheck. When he is home he gets in the way and doesnt' do a thing around to help. Its not worth it. he will never change. Get on with your life. When you see how much of the time goes by before you need to ask him a question or get anything from him you will notice that you probably do most of it yourself and that he really isn't part of it. Sorry. But I'm trying now to get out. I'm older and have to start from scratch. I hope you don't fall into the same trap. I know I sound kind of mean but even his friends are saying that he is stupid. They know he has a good thing. Why doesn't he?

Love is the easy part ... loving someone one usually comes without warning and without wanting it to be. Loving someone is the easiest thing one can do. Of course making a relationship work is a totally different story.
Time heals all wounds, but it doesn't necessarily stop us from loving someone. The key is to be able to love and not be with that person. Holding the good memories close and being able to stay focused on living your life to its fullest with or without that person is key.
Loving is okay ... its all the staying in unhealthy relationships and not giving yourself a chance to love someone else that becomes a problem. Hold the good things close to your heart, but be willing to continue to live your life and stay open to the chance of new love.
Its not easy ... and my heart goes out to you ... stay strong and stay true to yourself.

Without the love in your natural being, you have nothing, my friend. Never learn to live without loving. It's not good for the psyche. You say you love him. Are you sure you're not confusing "love" with something else? Like maybe comfort? Good sex? I say, get on with your life and remember that for every door that closes, another one opens... Yes, time will heal your wounds but you can't sit around waiting for it to happen. Get on with your life...Good luck.

Only in romance novels. Eventually everyone moves on in one form or another. If you feel that this man is the only one for you, then consider just dealing with his short comings.

IMHO, I think the whole time apart thing is crap. It has happened to me a couple times with one person or the other starting in with someone else and backfiring it.

It's been my experience that once the couple is separated, it's over. I'm not saying it can't come back together again, but I haven't seen it happen.

Time apart....not looking good....most relationships don't survive that but one of my favorite quotes is that..."Love never Fails...it's you that decides to give up."
