Well then, you truly did get away, and it's probably a good thing! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1264454 Fri, 06 Dec 2013 01:32:36 +0000 Arden 1264454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, DH and I are childhood sweethearts, never dated anyone else. I DID have a crazy stalker though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1264453 Fri, 06 Dec 2013 01:30:37 +0000 MsMini 1264453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You mean my psycho ex who showed up at my house until I moved, then called me until I changed my number, then emailed me until I got rid of that account? ... yep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1264452 Fri, 06 Dec 2013 01:29:09 +0000 googly-eyes 1264452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1264438 Fri, 06 Dec 2013 00:50:27 +0000 mrsjazz 1264438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have no idea. I don't talk to my exes. (I'm only talking about the 2 guys I was in serious, long-term relationships with). Not that I'm not all that and a bag of chips, but I highly doubt it. I'm sure they think of me every once in a while like I do them, but not in the "Damn, she was the one that got away" way. I think there's a difference between "the one that got away" and "I wonder what my life would have been like if we had stayed together?" </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1264429 Fri, 06 Dec 2013 00:32:23 +0000 birdofafeather 1264429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hm... In HS and college I had guy friends tell me after the fact that they wished they would have made a move but i don't know that I was the one that got away truly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263769 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 19:30:45 +0000 dc yoga bee 1263769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yes, many times ;) Okay, I just so wanted to write that like a boss. But, 3x I've been the one that got away, and they've tried to contact me in fruitless attempts to get me back since I've been MARRIED. Not uh, sorry! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263716 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 18:49:40 +0000 mrs. bird 1263716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: you man eater, you!</p> <p>yep. he still hasn't had a real girlfriend since i asked him to move out. kinda sad. i wish him all the best, but we couldn't have worked. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263703 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 18:43:55 +0000 MapleMoose 1263703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Apparently an ex contacted my bff to try to get ahold of me again. She didn't give him my contact info because she knows what I think of him. (she ran it by me but of course I told her keep up the good work!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263673 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 18:28:34 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1263673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! 2-3 times. I think they're all happily married now though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263625 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 18:09:12 +0000 chopsuey 1263625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep. For a handful of guys. haha. Sad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263474 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 17:26:14 +0000 yin 1263474@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and thankfully I never have to see him again since he lives in another country now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263437 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 17:14:40 +0000 LuLu Mom 1263437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, three times &amp; they were all very vocal about in their attempts to get me back later. I was that girl I guess people realized was great once we moved on (so strange!) HAHA DH was smart to never let me go, I very rarely went back to someone who had broke up with me (or me with him!) </p> <p>Oh and want to talk small world the one who was most vocal even up to a year ago (after I was married and had a child) is now dating my daycare lady....I discovered this a few months ago. Want to talk about an awkward conversation....oh well all is good now. haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263429 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 17:12:13 +0000 lovehoneybee 1263429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but it took me moving on and getting really serious with D for him to realize it. He calls me "the biggest question mark of (his) life".</p> <p>ETA: He was mine, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263425 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 17:10:42 +0000 Cherrybee 1263425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. He kept up the trying-to-get-me-back act for several years and got really ugly at times. Im not sure if he still feels this way - we are friends on FB and he has a lovely girlfriend now.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263356 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:46:30 +0000 dolphin 1263356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Oh young love... :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263346 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:42:45 +0000 mrsvdv 1263346@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish! But I don't think so... :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263341 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:41:32 +0000 MarieJ 1263341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and he still attempts to contact me through friends and social media. Stalker </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263339 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:40:23 +0000 shellio 1263339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: same :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263310 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:32:56 +0000 MamaMoose 1263310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. And he got crazy stalkerish for a while. I learned via Facebook he got married this summer. Good luck to her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263291 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:28:06 +0000 IRunForFun 1263291@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I broke off an engagement. I still feel really sad about it because he's a great guy (just not "the one" for me) and he hasn't found someone since. I know he wants a family and it just makes me sad to think that if we had stayed together he'd have that by now. I want him to find someone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263274 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:22:09 +0000 jedeve 1263274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Dated a guy for four years in college and broke up the night before graduation. (He went to a different school, at least!) </p> <p>He texted me years later threatening to kill himself. Then e-mailed a few months later apologizing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263259 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 16:10:20 +0000 Vegmama 1263259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. I would have married my last boyfriend if it weren't for his little immaturity issues. He told me for years that he regretted his behavior and that he never changed ... Now, he's very happily married with a little girl. It makes me really happy to know he's happy. And, I'm happy I didn't settle back then. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1263078 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 15:32:24 +0000 Boheme 1263078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep, and its because he was immature at the time. He has told me its his biggest regret, but too bad buddy. The ship has sailed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1262365 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 13:15:58 +0000 bpcmarj 1262365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would like to think so ;) But in reality, probably not. I do think of a couple of people here and there and wonder if they realized what they missed out on back then by being immature, unavailable, too caught up in their own stuff or whatever! No regrets on my end, but I do wonder if they have any. Does that make me a little self-absorbed? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1262361 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 13:14:26 +0000 MrsKoala 1262361@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope! Not that I am aware of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1262359 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 13:13:35 +0000 autumnlove 1262359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, but we got our act together and we got married! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1262358 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 13:13:27 +0000 deerylou 1262358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe? I tried really hard to maintain a relationship with someone I really, deeply cared for, despite lots of head games and immaturity. In the end, it was too little, too late. Of course, this was a few years before I began dating my husband. I do hope the best for him, but he's alluded to being disappointed I've happily moved on in a very permanent way. Then again, being "the one who got away" isn't really a concept I believe exists. If it's meant to work out, it will. Neither of us were right for the other. *shrug* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1262339 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 13:08:49 +0000 mrs. wagon 1262339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Uhh... yes... too many times... I was a bitch. :T </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/were-you-the-one-who-got-away-to-someone#post-1262338 Thu, 05 Dec 2013 13:08:39 +0000 littlek 1262338@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes... he still writes every once in awhile.. </p>
