I Don't Like Goodbyes

[b]TIME TO SAY GOODBYE[/b]

15 years – oh yes that's a long time. I was still a girl when we first met.

You were good to me, and we were good together.
You have never forsaken me.
You got me through the hard times, and the good times.
You've been there when I needed you.

Yes sometimes I've cheated on you, but I always came back, because nothing has ever compared to you.

Whenever there was something wrong with you, I did everything I could do to help.

It's over. It simply doesn't work anymore. Too much damage, beyond repair. I have tears in my eyes. 15 years of love and laughter will go with you, to never come back again.

[b]Farewell, my beloved [i]Levi's 501[/i][/b]. You've been beautiful. You've been part of my life for so long, like nothing else. There won't be anything like you again.

[b]I will never forget you but you have to go now.[/b]

I feel ya 😢, felt the same way about a wax jacket last year, think it was their choice to part company though.
helenS · 36-40, F
@AliceTinker In a sense I'm glad you felt the same about your jacket because it means I'm not the only one. These feelings are real. My post wasn't meant as a joke.
AliceTinker · 51-55, F
@helenS My jacket was a barbour that was given to me second hand years ago already a bit battered but I loved it and it was part of me for a very long time, even the partly chewed pocket from a long gone beloved dog.
helenS · 36-40, F
@AliceTinker There are so many memories... it's like losing a friend.
KnightRanger · 56-60, M
Oh very young, what will you leave us this time?
You're only dancing on this earth for a short while.
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now,
They will vanish away like Helen's best jeans,
Denim blue, fading up to the sky.
And though you want 'em to last forever, you know they never will
(You know they never will),
And the patches make the goodbyes harder still...

(with apologies to Cat Stevens for the slight modification! 😉)

15 yrs damaged jeans. I wonder how much your jeans was still able to cover from your waist and legs before you let it go.
SolidHeart · 46-50, M
@helenS too loyal that you kept your body same fitted figure all that time.
helenS · 36-40, F
@SolidHeart My body shaped when I was pregnant, and I could not wear my beloved pair of 501's.
Apart from that, why would my body shape change?
SolidHeart · 46-50, M
@helenS gain weight and have curves or lose weight and be slim.
Doug57 · 61-69, M
I’d have lovd to feel the washed thin soft cotton of them over your firm thighs or bum....
helenS · 36-40, F
@Doug57 As a replacement, I purchased a new pair of 'Hugo Boss' blue jeans. "Candiani Denim", "finest Italian fabric stretch", for EUR 150 (!). They are good, they are very good, but they are not the same. Nothing will ever be the same.
😔
Doug57 · 61-69, M
@helenS I’d love to see an image of them on you, even with face turned or omitted for anonymity
Docdon23 · M
@helenS Somehow, in life, nothing ever does seem the same as the fondest memories from our youth...life was simpler and clearer then...but the world marches on, and we make new, equally satisfying memories...hopefully!!!
Newandimproved · 61-69, M
well...at least you weren't just a love em and leave em type.

don't take it too hard. people change, they grow...the old relationsips aren't a good fit anymore.

you'll find a new one
I don't get it
@SW-User ooooooweeeee.... Now I REALLY don't get it
tindrummer · M
@SW-User I think he or she is too young for this humor. 🙂
SW-User
@tindrummer maybe, who knows
St0ut · 51-55, M
🎶forever in blue jeans babe🎵
helenS · 36-40, F
@St0ut Blue jeans are better than all the other pants I have ever owned. They look better, and they [u]feel[/u] better.
St0ut · 51-55, M
@helenS I bet you loook really good in them
helenS · 36-40, F
@St0ut Oh I'm quite skinny, so I think they look attractive.
AnneHoney · 36-40, F
They must have rubbed you the right way.
helenS · 36-40, F
@AnneHoney Yes!!!
😁
Normanwestie · 61-69, M
lol I have a pair I got from the "Bankrupt clothing company" in 1989! their slogan was "Don't go broke go bankrupt"
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@helenS I fit into my Navy uniform fro 1970!
helenS · 36-40, F
@samueltyler2 You maintained your body weight for 50 years! Very very attractive. 🌷
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@helenS thank you.
JohnOinger · 41-45, M
@helenS So What Do You Think Of The Rock & Would You Do Him
helenS · 36-40, F
@JohnOinger Nothing to do with my old pair of jeans JohnOhlinger!
JohnOinger · 41-45, M
@helenS 😂
JohnOinger · 41-45, M
@helenS last question Would You Do John Olinger
Montanaman · M
💕 my 501's
MrAverage1965 · 61-69, M
I once read that at age 26 you are considered too old to skateboard.
At what age are you considered too old to wear 501s (I am 62 and still have a pair in my wardrobe)
helenS · 36-40, F
@MrAverage1965 Simple answer: you're never too old for a pair of 501s. Real mean are [u]buried[/u] in their 501s 🌷
MrAverage1965 · 61-69, M
@helenS I have to agree.
SW-User
😂 I feel you
SW-User
And so begins a new chapter....🥳
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@helenS use your money to help the world.
helenS · 36-40, F
@samueltyler2 Are you serious??
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@helenS why not? Rather then $170 for jeans, spend $30 and donate the rest.
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
Why are you getting rid of them? The latest style is torn and otherwise worn jeans!
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@helenS no need to patch, the tears are in vogue. I guess it depends how daring the placements of tears are. How a out a photo? 😜

I have shoes that I have owned for over 30 years and still wear and a suit of that vintage as well.
helenS · 36-40, F
@samueltyler2 I played the song “Long long long” (by George Harrison) when I threw them away. It was the first song I had heard when they were new.
😢
samueltyler2 · 80-89, M
@helenS so sad. So many young women wear torn jeans, I'd really have liked to see what you thought were too worn.
Docdon23 · M
your Levis...fit for 15 years? That alone is a wonderful relationship!!
Docdon23 · M
@helenS My imagination is racing...a nice tight fit...a little wear and tear...some appropriate girlish bulges...
helenS · 36-40, F
@Docdon23 Haha those bulges are really girlish… so your imagination is quite appropriate here.
Docdon23 · M
@helenS expanding the detail of the imagined...situation...wonderful!!!
JoeyFoxx · 51-55, M
Once the fabric of a relationship is worn thin, there’s nothing to do but part ways.

Nothing comes between me an my Calvin’s.

Nothing.

*stares with bedroom eyes*
SW-User
Bittersweet parting!! Lol
SW-User
@helenS and you’d be right.. they aren’t the same quality and their cut has changed
helenS · 36-40, F
@SW-User Haha I want the old American quality back and I want it now!
SW-User
@helenS he he he he he !!!! 😉
SW-User
the same pair for 15 years or just the brand?
helenS · 36-40, F
@SW-User The [u]very same pair[/u] of blue jeans.
SW-User
@helenS wow :)
helenS · 36-40, F
@SW-User Yes. That's quality. Probably they've been made in the US, and not in some cheapo Far East sweat shop.
olderuncle944 · 70-79, M
it was a great loss of an old friend im sure ,
helenS · 36-40, F
@olderuncle944 Yes it was a great loss. But I found an excellent replacement!
braveheart21 · 61-69, M
Show us ....@helenS
SheikYerbouti · 51-55, M
Had to do b that with 501 's, pair of Ralph Lauren slacks no longer available.
GJOFJ3 · 61-69, M
Damn. You had me going there for a while. LOL
helenS · 36-40, F
@GJOFJ3 It wasn't meant as a joke. I was serious.
Uncfred · 61-69, M
Takes some thinking, but I get it, your Levi's
liloleme123 · 51-55, M
Same fit fifteen years 😏
helenS · 36-40, F
@liloleme123 Yes. And it was an old school pair of 501's, without flex waist, stretch legs, and similar nonsense.
liloleme123 · 51-55, M
@helenS 🙃
Abhay · 31-35, M
Y would you cheat if it was true love?????
SW-User
Very clever, I like it :-)
daydeeo · 61-69, M

KnightRanger · 56-60, M
