I can top all of you being in a wait and see relationship for 24 years, good times, great
sex but no respect; it has taken me this long to realize that love doesn't hurt; love cares what the other person's needs are and tries to fulfill them; the plain truth is that this guy is a user out of our good nature; the
worse of the
worse because they know the
feelings and hurt in someone and they continue to take, string along to fulfill their own needs; it isn't
about how much we love them; it is
about how little that they love us; no one lets a person that they truly love be in pain, year after year; it is a defect in their
make up and a defect in ours to stay and settle for less than we deserve; there is love after this and we have to learn to love ourself enough to stop this pain on our own behalf; mine has thrown me out like an old shoe over and over and I forgive him, not now; I forgive myself for wasting time and need to move on to find someone who isn't selfish and using; I can't change him, I can only change me and that I am going to do; there is a saying that if you aren't over him you are under him, exactly l see you and best of luck to my poor replacement.
