There are times a person comes into our lives, and changes it for the better, helps us move forward if you like.
Did someone in your life make you see things for the better, or shape how you feel about yourself?
Not your parents.

It has been, sad, yet enlightening to see how after bad times, someone came along for you and made a difference.
It will be so hard choosing a best answer, because I was moved by your response and honesty in sharing the painful and the good times.
And those who are still waiting for that special person, don't give up hope...
And thank you, to Small Troll for his very sweet words..
Thanks everyone...

oh yes. about a year ago i was with my ex and had just lost my baby. i even kept a journal at the time. my ex and i broke up. a couple weeks later i met a man that was just incredible. loved everthing about me, I thought it was to good to be true, we dated for three months , got engaged, got married three months later and on the fifth of april it will be our five month annivarsary. ( today its been a year that we met lol ) but one amazing year i have had. he accepted every single thing about me. he compliments me all the time. when i met him I was suicdle after losing my child. and tonight when he fell asleep i found that journal, in the journal i was saying i wish i would meet someone that could see me for me. no judging, no treating me bad etc. little did I know he was right around the corner. he saved me. he has brought out the best in me. i fell like a human now and not a failure. i honestly think that we meet people for a reason, I don't know my purpous here yet but I know god sent him to me to save me :)

I've had a few.
A wonderful teacher in junior high/middle school. The town was small, narrow minded and very entrenched. She wasn't. She made me think, and introduced me to art, music and literature.
A woman I met in bootcamp taught me the meaning of friendship. For 3 decades, through thick and thin, and way too many miles.
A stranger on a train across country showed me kindness and consideration, with no strings attached.
Several others.

Yes just recently in fact,
I met a girl, who I fell totally in love with.
Before I met her I did not think I could love anyone in that way, my feelings were always suppressed. I have never really been able to to show or even admit I had feelings.
But now I know that I can feel, its like I'm almost a different person. I'm happier too.

Yeah...My Ex Husband....I was with him all total 12 yrs...Married 10 of it....2 kids & ALOT of BS later....
I learned that not everyone is trustworthy...you can never get the truth from dishonesty....forgiving a cheater is not always the best move....I can get better...I do matter to someone....I am a VERY likeable person....& I have a sense of humor!.....also that I have some self esteem....OMG!....
Things I have forgotten, being with him....we had our good times...but the bad times outweigh them these days....I do thank him for my 2 beautiful kids....but that is all I will give him props for......
Since then...I have discovered that I am a Mature Adult...capable of making decisions that will be for the better of myself & my Family...& I don't NEED him around to drag me down.....esp. while I am trying to achieve the goals I have set for myself....

Well..this is 'deep' thought question...in a nut shell...my late husband
He took me as the city girl I was born from and taught me country life, it's joys and sorrows, trials and triumphs and taught me how to fish which has been an extremely fun and challenging pass time for me...when I go fishing, alone, I spend a lot of time remembering.....just remembering

When I met my boyfriend, i was broke, drinking WAY too much, and just kind of out of control. I have now settled down. I'm on track with my bills and I only drink on occasion. I thank God everyday what a wonderful gift he has given me.
