The strangest thing someone's ever told me about heartbreak...

"I know that you're in awful pain and I know this may sound strange, but enjoy it while you can. Because even if it's pain, it still means you feel something deep for that person. The best but saddest part about heartbreak is getting to where all your feelings are dead for that person. There's no turning back after that."

 

Kind of strange for them to say enjoy my pain, but kind of true at the same time... What do you guys think?

Agree with this... But I don't think it's the saddest part...

The pain might be a necessary part of processing the loss. I am not sure it's something I could say I want to continue. The bit I've quoted above, that I don't think I'll find sad. I want it so badly. I can understand that as the feelings slip away, there might be a sense of panic at losing this last hint of a connection. We torture ourselves in so many ways!

It hurts to lose it just as much as it hurts to slowly let it go and watch it fade. Probably because you won't get those years of your life back, and you wonder what makes a person change like that... or if they were really that way all along.

 

The best you can do is learn your lessons from what happened, improve, and keep rolling.

To be honest, I would be relieved but sad if I no longer felt anything at all for 'him'. I think we all want to get to that point so badly, but when it actually comes... it's bittersweet? Because you realize that this really is the end. I dunno, I think it's weird how we go from caring so much for someone to... absolutely nothing. Kinda sad to think that even if you wanted to try with them again, you can't. Because your heart will never be in it anymore. It's done, finito, and nothing can be changed about it. It drives me crazy sometimes and makes me wonder how can feelings like that change so fast? Was it even real? Etc.

I was more afraid of seeing him than anything else. I was so scared that I would feel so miserable and would cry or something, which would have made his day, especially if he had been with the other woman who he married 2 months after I caught him.

 

When I saw him for the first time 2 days ago, I looked at him blankly, he looked at me, and I passed him by like I didn't know who he was. I did not feel a thing. I walked past him again when I was leaving and still felt nothing. That was the best feeling in the world. I am truly free, and it feels so good.

I don't think it's ever going to end, I think it's just going to hibernate. If I truly never felt anything at one point I think a part of me I cherish will have died. Pain or no pain, having loved so deeply makes me no less of a person. We are all responsible for our own love, if it we really up to the other person then when they chose another path we would no longer feel anything at all and this wouldn't be such a difficult journey.

 

What makes it hurt do damn much is that they ran off looking for the very thing they had. How are you supposed to find something if you don't know what your looking for? So many people that display this behavior will do it over and over and over again, some for the rest of their lives.

 

Regardless of anything else, I can now go to my grave happy knowing that I at least found out what love is, more is the pity to the person that is unable see it.

 

life ain't always beautiful

 

Hope everyone is as lucky as I have been. Some people never find it at all.
