Tell me about the one who got away.

Are they still in your heart?
Got away through death at the age of 39. He will live in my heart forever. ❤

@OlderSometimesWiser I am sorry for your loss. He was so young.
JohnnyNoir · 56-60, M
Yes, and always will be
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@JohnnyNoir I'm sorry.
JohnnyNoir · 56-60, M
@Tomorrow It's all good, she came along at a good time for me. I'm grateful
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@JohnnyNoir That's nice.

I dumped someone in the past. He was very good looking and a nice guy. A keeper. But years later I married someone who has been my rock and we have so much in common. My best friend. That guy from the past probably wouldnt have worked out in the long run. So I don't dwell on him but have nice memories where they belong.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@Blondily That is good for you.

The one that got away haunts me often. I missed my chance and she got swept up my someone else. Life went on and I got married and had kids, she floated in and out of my thoughts through the years, and then randomly I stumble across her on social media. It was like a dam of feelings and memories burst and flooded me. Like a flood though, things are messed up completely. Here I sit trying to sort the mess.

@3Dogmatic Do you think it is your current situation making it worse?
3Dogmatic · 46-50, M
@Tomorrow It is not helping
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@3Dogmatic No I'm sure it isn't.
WillaKissing · 56-60
When she got away. I was captured by the wrong woman, and I can only think of her now because it was literally decades ago when I lost her.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@WillaKissing Is there a possibility you might meet again?
WillaKissing · 56-60
@Tomorrow She was such a golden hearted woman, I bet she is married happily and content. I doubt we would ever meet again.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
I'm sorry. @WillaKissing
They were too much of a coward to make any effort to be with me. And that's not love. If I love someone I'll fight like hell for them .
So I let them go.
And no they aren't still in my heart. I reserve that space for who deserves it.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@AnnabelleLeigh It is hard to love a coward. I also will not reserve space for someone who didn't fight tooth and nail for me.
@Tomorrow I understand.
Elisbch · M
To some degree yes, but that was a long time ago.
Elisbch · M
That's very true @Tomorrow , but it's been some years since then and I've had time to get over her and keep that in perspective. 🙂. Good memories though.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@Elisbch Time can make a difference.
Elisbch · M
@Tomorrow

It sure can..... most times. 😊
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@mysteryespresso Do you think you might meet again someday?
@Tomorrow meeting is in dream several times over this lifetime. Nothing more than that likely
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
I'm sorry. @mysteryespresso

Everyone who has meant something to me continues to live in my heart.
Without any emotional charge and with a lot of gratitude that they crossed my path.
As far as someone who got away, I believe everything as it should be.
StarLily · 51-55, F
I let him slip away because of someone else.

Yes, they are still in my heart.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@StarLily I see. I hope you did make the right decision.
StarLily · 51-55, F
@Tomorrow Perhaps the key word in my comment is "let" 🙂. It was definitely something I took time to make a thoughtful decision on for myself. So in that regard, it was the right decision.

As far as how things are playing out... well, that's still somewhat uncertain. So I guess I don't regret my decision, but I do miss the person's energy and the positives we brought to each other.

How about you? Do you have "one that got away"?
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@StarLily Yes. But he is in the past. I do not try to look him up or find out about him. I think I will always remember him though.
Zaphod42 · 51-55, M
My EXes are EXes for good reasons. I’m currently with the best woman ever to come into my life, and if it doesn’t work out with her I’m done.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@Zaphod42 I will hope it works for you.
They aren’t still in my heart. I wish them well, but in a way I ended up being the one that got away even though it felt like the opposite at the time
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@DisappearingTide Do you mean it was a blessing?
No
They're dead to me
No not in my heart either
I don't waste time with pointless lamenting
Life is for living not lamenting
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@pripyatamusementpark Okay. That is good.
SW-User
Yes. I don’t bother him though as he has a girlfriend
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@SW-User That is for the best. Nothing good could come of it.
SW-User
@Tomorrow I’ve realized that and have made my peace with it
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@SW-User Good.
@Tomorrow I want to meet. But she doesn't think the same way. I don't even know if she will ever meet me or communicate the way she used too. 😔
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@Tomorrow don't be sorry. I started adapting that situation since many years now so it's hard but I can't do anything else.
Not really.

Never really had one.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@LifeIsShort I see.
Thatsright · 61-69, M
Found better it turns out.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@Thatsright That is good.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@bowman81 Do you think you might meet again?
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@UndeadSona Okay.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@V00doo I'm sorry.
@Tomorrow Im ok with it. He'll always be special to me, but we wouldn't have worked well together and I'd have never met my husband. I'm happy the path that life took me.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@V00doo That is the best outcome possible.
pancakeslam · 41-45, M
hopefully far away by now
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@pancakeslam I see.
Donotfolowme · 51-55, F
Nope, long gone
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@Donotfolowme That is great. You are the only one who has said that.
Oh yes. Even tho it was 36 years ago I last saw her.
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@aboveaverageaveragejoe Do you think it is possible you might meet again someday?
@Tomorrow Nope.
empanadas · 31-35, M
Cultural differences, she's married now
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@empanadas Are you happy for her?
empanadas · 31-35, M
@Tomorrow yeah im happy she's happy. I want to see her smile
Tomorrow · 56-60, F
@empanadas That is good.
