Anyone else here constantly betrayed by love? So far in my life, every single man that I have loved has hurt me deeply. I learn from past mistakes and know that I'm growing as a person. I think the biggest hurdle I face is that I feel SO much and rarely can connect on that level without freaking people out. I hope that at least once in my life I can experience the love in return that I am capable of giving...

Do you need a hug?
I don't allow myself to be hurt anymore. I have become selective in the type of man I date...Rule number 1 is if you cheat on me it is over... But another thing I have learned is that there is always something to learn from each relationship that we enter..So when it is over thank the person for your lesson and move on... ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown | |

I sweated somebody once
And she played me And from that time forward, I said NEVER AGAIN. So now, I'm just too STANK. "That...magic, the start of something revolutionary-the Minneapolis Sound, we should cherish it and not punish prince for not being able to replicate it."-Dreamshaman32 | |

I wouldn't say "constantly", but the betrayal by my ex-husband has scarred me. He was the first man I did everything with, and what he did, made it very difficult for me to trust, like I trusted him.
My only other long-term relationship basically told me after a woman is 30, she is over the hill, and a man will only stay with her if he chooses to "settle" and bow to the life society claims is proper - marriage. So it's a lose/lose situation for my two experiences...it really makes me want to raise my daughter alone and never have another close relationship, and make myself vulnerable...the first relationship lasted 12 years...the second 9 years. | |

When the right one comes along, old fear will fall away with almost no effort. Relax... Fear is the mind-killer. | |

I guess your daughter is your priority but never say never! U don't know what, or who, could be just around the corner if u're still open to the possibility. | |

Also, I cannot stand women much under the age of 30--there's a lot to be said for the "settled" life and a focus on more important things besides parties and whatnot...
30-40 is your PRIME. Fear is the mind-killer. | |

As we get older we begin to recognize these weaknesses in ourselves and others--and not to run away screaming the first time we are pushed away by fear. The tide will turn--you will see. Fear is the mind-killer. | |

Anyone else in my camp? You aren't being betrayed by love, you are being betrayed by lust. What are you saying Mr Hull? Explain further please. Your boyfriends betrayed you because of their lust for others..not because of love. Not saying they didn't love you but some folks dont know what love is and think being with soemone in a relationship is love etc...nope. If they-he loved you, the lust for others would have been contained enough for him/them not to act on it. Because you love someone doesn't mean that you dont get aroused by others such as a beautiful woman or man etc..but if you love that person you are with then you most defintely wouldn't act on it.. imo. "Climb in my fur." | |

I agree. The problem is to meet men who don't think this way, if I would just let them. Pretty messed up | |

That is a GOOD thing..it also sets you up to be dogged and taken advantage of but dont ever regret or lose that "feeling SO much" aspect...ever! "Climb in my fur." | |

Pretty messed up You have cause to think and feel gaurded etc...you just have to change your cognitions,the way you think about whats happened and why. You know in your heart that they were messed up..that it was not you and that you are worthy etc. And that this does not mean that you cant ever find someone decent so to speak.

Well there is nothing you can do about that. We all exoerience that. You can't make someone love you. No matter how hard you love them. "Climb in my fur." | |
