Honestly, I can feel your pain.
I had an affair that ended abruptly when her husband found out. In that situation I couldn't call her,or write her,or see her. I could only wait,for how long I had no idea,all alone.
I had divorced just a few months before that after 3 years of this affair in which I learned what it felt like to really be loved. I think the process of us falling in love was too much of a strain on our secret relationship anyway. She was not willing to leave the comfort of a rich man. I don't blame her. It was never part of the deal anyway.
Anyhow, I barely survived. I would lie in my bed with panic attacks. I didn't know what they were at the time but realized later that my uncontrollable rapid heart rate,breathing and sweating were all psychological. After a few days I made it to the balcony for 5-6 hours a day because it faced in the direction of her house. I knew I could never see her from such a distance but it comforted me to at least be facing her somewhere.
It took me 4 months to start socialising again. It was at least a year before it didn't consume my thoughts to the point of inteferring with current relationships.
I had a picture of her in my wallet,which she had given me to remember her. It was stolen 6 months later and it was as if she had died because I would never see her face again after that.
It's been more than ten years now. I still feel love for her and shed tears remembering the happiness and the heartache.
True love is a rare thing. It comforts and torments with the same memory. It's both beautiful and hideous.
Love has taken you to see the highest vistas of what might have been and driven you into the greatest depths of the reality of what is.
For you and I to have felt love. That's enough.

Re: Have you ever lost a REAL TRUE LOVE ?
When I was younger, I was with this guy who I KNEW was the one and only one for me. It was as if we were made for each other. After awhile, for reasons I will not mention, we went our separate ways. I was heart broken and devastated for quite some time.
Ten years later, faith was on our side, and our paths crossed again. We have been together now for 13 years.

Yes, Rick, I have.
It has been over 5 years now and I still dream about her. I have had girlfriends since then, and a couple women that where mearly " fuck buddies " However my heart remains unspoken for. I still feel it is no longer available. Probably not what you wanted to hear.
Write to me, friend, we can talk, if you would like.

Re: Have you ever lost a REAL TRUE LOVE ?
yes i have. it hurt so bad that i did'nt think i ever would be able to find anyone ever again.
however i have learned a lot since then, and have decided to take out of it what i learned.
i try to apply theese things in new relationships, and to be a better person, listener, friend,and lover. i refuse to give up because i know i will find the right one, and you will too.

Re: Have you ever lost a REAL TRUE LOVE ?
yes! i'm hoping for Lev's situation! It's still all a little new. Very difficult to cope with it. I don't sleep too well, and I think about her constantly, and I cry for no apparent reason. I have pictures all over the house that I am slowly taking down one by one hoping to be able to move on. I honestly dont see it happening anytime soon. It really sucks!

Re: Have you ever lost a REAL TRUE LOVE ?
No, I haven't. I found him, married him in October, and have no intention of EVER losing him.
All of those cliches you hear and think are so trite, are, until they happen to you.
After that, there are no words, trite or otherwise to describe the feelings that you have for your "other half, better half" I would be beyond devastated if I did not have Warren. He is everything to me and more. There WAS something missing in me, until I had him, and once I met him, I knew that he was what had been missing.
Words fail me sometimes, to tell just how much I love him. I wind up tying my tongue in knots and falling silent, because I don't know how to say what I want to, or how I feel.
Babe, I love you and I will ALWAYS love you, even if sometimes I don't know how to say it to you in ways other than the ones we already use to say it to each other.

Re: Have you ever lost a REAL TRUE LOVE ?
No cuase I did not know that she wsa the one. I know that sounds strange so hear is the tale. I moved to missouri when my mom remarried, I made friends with two guys who lived a couple of farms from where I lived, they became my best friends. So growing up we went every where togather, when we could drive is was cruising every weekend, which usually started with taking their stupid little sister to some chuch outing or a ballgame.
What I did not know was that the stupid little sister had a crush on me. Well graduated high school and went off to college, came back after graduation and got back with my two old friends again, we would go fishing every weekend. With all of us working odd shifts we would usually meet at her brothers house, who she was living with at the time, so as I would wait to go fishing we would talk and watch movies togather. Of course being as dense as I am it never occured to me that she liked me. Two reaons, first the stupid little sister thing and second she was seriously dating another guy or so I thought till one friday night I should up and she had been crying so I asked what was wrong and she said that it was her 21st bday and her jerk boyfriend had went to the stripclub with the guys. So I took her to the bar bought her a drink. Anyway one thing after another and bam I realized that my true love was her all the time. Ten years of happiness this june 24th. Sorry this is so long but I love my wife and love to tell the story of how I married the stupid little sister.
