I Lost Love ? Every Relationship Has a Time Line
I Lost Love ? Every Relationship Has a Time Line
by Toby Hardwick
When I think about how I lost love, I think about Alfred Lord
Tennyson?s quote, ?Tis better to have loved and lost than never to
have loved at all.? When I lost love, I felt the whole world had
collapsed around me. I?m sharing my story in order to help you if you
too have lost the love of your life.
I think it is important to remember that every relationship has a
natural lifespan. In Junior High, that?s about four days. As we get
older, the lifespan increases. But, there are certain relationships
that are right for a period of time and then go awry. Most of us will
only have one great love in our lives. The other relationships will
terminate. That?s why when I say I lost love, I understand that this
is a natural process.
I n my case, we were actually getting closer and my girl friend was
planning to move into my apartment. Her lease was ending and it made
perfect sense in the sense financial perspective as well as we were
spending most of the time together in my place.
I know I lost my love because the relationship was coming hard on me.
I couldn?t handle the situation and I wasn't ready to get more
committed. And then I knew that the life of this relationship has come
to an end. She took the relationship to such a level that it became
too hard for me to handle. There is a significance of living
separately.
Now, I know I handled the situation badly. I went to a friend?s
bachelor party and let?s just say things got out of hand. Word about
the wild antics at the party got back to my girlfriend, naturally, and
she dumped me. I lost love over the events of one night.
I know I wouldn't have behaved that way if I ever welcomed her to move
in. when I brood over the past, I understand I was in no way ready to
take her and the events of the bachelor party were a result of my
retention to more commitment. I couldn't see it head in the way I
never anticipated.
I?m glad I had the chance to be in a relationship with my ex. But I
don?t think she was the love of my life, my soul mate. Instead, she
was someone with whom I genuinely enjoyed spending time. I loved her.
I still love her. But, she is not the person with whom I see spending
the rest of my life.
That period of mourning and brooding, analyzing and repenting didn't
even leave me. I was hurt. I know even I hurt her, but I never wanted
her to leave me totally out of her life. It was hard to take when she
wanted to wind up the relationship but I know nothing could be done
and the damage is far from mending.
I guess what I wanted was for things to continue on the way they were.
But, every relationship has to grow or die. Because I wasn?t willing
to let it grow, it had to die. In every relationship, there is a time
to die. And, for me, this was it. That?s how I lost love.
