The memories aren't as good as you remember them. Now grab a drink and some good food and enjoy the weather.
Are we all just going to ignore that Jontro made a serious post??? If you are real, I will get you dinner in nyc. On me. Prove yourself; I still think you are a troll.
Holy $hit. :grin: Hilarious. On a serious note though, I went through a tough divorce with a kid last year. It sucks. I wouldn't wish it on anybody. BUT... I'm still here. Still hurts not being able to see my kid everyday but I don't miss the arguments and the nonsense that came with being married with my ex. That I'm glad for. I've been gradually improving myself day by day and now have time to whatever dafuq I want. OP sounds young. Sounds like infatuation, not real love to me but WTF do I know.
So true DD. So true. It's not easy, but time really does heal all wounds. I think OP is young... early 20's I'm guessing. If he had been through something like this before, he wouldn't be so... fragile.
You know though, I'm not gonna lie, after my divorce I posted here for advice. Instead, I got advice and support. There's a lot of cool AF people in here. It really did help me get over the initial shock denial stage. Divorce // Breaking up is no joke though. Some people go really deep into the abyss and don't come back. Fortunately for me, I was able to get over it pretty quickly.
I think we could've been very happy together. I also know we both made mistakes along the way. Separating memories to cherish and memories you wish you could create has been a hard thing for me. It's a good lesson for the future though... I'm definitely romanticizing the memories. I'll send you an email through the board. It's been about three years now; time has helped. You're right — I also need to make a lot of new memories. Sorry to hear about the divorce. I'm on the younger side, but we were in a ~five year relationship that was beautiful. True love. Never been through this before fortunately (unfortunately?)... I've been amazed and so appreciative of the advice and support from so many. It doesn't heal the pain, but it helps me realize that I can be happy in the future.
