julioiglesia Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I think you should find someone who treats you right and puts you in the center of everything. if she plays games with you, she aint the right girl. and if you don't want to be treated like a chopped liver then don't chase after a chopped liver. good luck Link to comment
mw430 Posted January 17, 2009 Author Share Posted January 17, 2009 its makes it so hard cuz we got a kid who i love more than anything u know.plus there were so many times when our love was def.meant to be and true..and plenty of times they werent..i dont know anymore Link to comment
dreamguy Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 Your love for your kid should be something TOTALLY different from your love for your ex. I say love your kid more than anything in this world and do what you can to see your daughter as much as you can and be there for her as she grows up. On the other hand, drop the mother because she is too much of a hassle anyway and she doesn't have a clue what she wants. Go do what's best for YOU. if you fall in love with someone else who treats you better then it would be great. If not, well at least you would have not wasted your life waiting for someone who doesn't know what they want. Your life is yours and if you don't live it, no one will live it for you.

mw430 Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 i know and a lot of people have told me what you just said and i know its right..its just hard sometimes u know.i juust would give anything to have my family back together and happy and full of love,but it just wont be.my ex is selfish and young,and probably just doesnt have a clue what she wantsits sad bcuz im a great dad(although my ex never appreciated that bcuz she grew up without a father and thinks she grew up fine)hahah..seriously shes got issues always has.,but my daughter deserves better than shifting a hundred miles every weekend.my kid loves me so much and gets really upset when shes gotta go back to her mother..it kills me.plus twice allready now when i have kissed her goodbye,she has told me to kiss my ex..it really breaks my heart...she doesnt really get it..i think all of that makes me jaded in the amount of actual love i have for my ex.i know i love her and probably always will.she is the only woman i have ever loved and i thought we would be together forever,regardless of how bad it would get sumtimes..whateva shes a skank now right?f her..im a good dude.i make good money,im very good looking,and ill be fine..her throwing this away will turn out to be the biggest mistake of her life i know it.its all just very sad tho..im getting better i think Link to comment
dreamguy Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I feel what you are saying man. I really do. And I know it's hard. It's been exactly (day to day) 1 year since I last saw my ex before she traveled. That night, we went out for one last time and, on the way back, she cried buckets. It's also been more than 2 months since we last had any kind of communication and yet my feelings for her haven't dwindled at all. However, reaching out at this point in time is useless. That's why people tell you to use that energy to make yourself happy. You deserve it and, of course, using it to get your ex back very very rarely works (if it works at all). It has occurred to me that "getting better" doesn't mean forgetting an ex or stopping to love them. We never forget and we never stop loving them. Getting better means being able to accept that you are not together and moving on with your life despite your persisting love for them. Link to comment

dreamguy Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I think your daughter is lucky to have a father that loves her so much and who will be there for her in times of need. Not all fathers / mothers are there for their kids after a separation. That alone should make you realize you are a good person who deserves to find happiness once again with or without your ex. Yes, your world as you knew it has been destroyed but you are still there. You are still alive and kicking and you have the power to destroy yourself or pick yourself up despite the heart-wrenching pain you are currently going through and LIVE again. So what will it be ? You have already been smart enough to come to this forum and share your story with others. You have already been strong enough for your daughter to be there for her on week-ends despite your relationship problems. Take the next smart step and, as you said, believe this is as worse as it gets. From now on you need to start moving back up... towards the sun. Link to comment

That's the thing. You couldn't have possible known. That's why you need to stop feeling guilty. The past is gone. The future lies ahead and your daughter is part of it. Make the best of it. im trying buddy..i know its a slow process but ill get there..thank you for all the support..i almost dont want this to end bcuz everytime i come on here i feel a lil bit better...isnt it sad,a full grown man,who never let his emotions get the best of him ever,has this happen,and can be a total mess...its amazing Oh and about the part where a full grown man lets his emotions get the best of him... I was there too once and it sure ain't a pleasant feeling for a man. You know, society depicts men as being strong and never having tears in their eyes, etc... IMO that's a stupid way to look at men. If God didn't want men (who are feeling a lot of pain of course) to cry then he simply wouldn't have given them tears in the first place. If God didn't want men to feel something then he simply wouldn't have given them emotions in the first place. I think what makes a guy a man isn't the fact that he can contain his feelings and/or withhold his tears during extremely difficult/painful moments of his life but his ability to stand up every time he falls and continue moving forward.

JohnGalt Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 doesn't make it easier. I asked God to give me my girl back. I never ask God for much....no girl back yet. Maybe God will come through, but maybe not. Link to comment
