-
yes. and i ended up breaking his heart later on.
-
Yes, a few times. The worst was my divorce - that's the most horrible thing I've ever had to live through.
-
Yes, a couple times. I always put myself fully into my relationships so when they end I was heartbroken. College boyfriend was the worst, I look back now and realize how much more I put into it than him and it still pisses me off
The only thing that makes it a little better is I know he was heartbroken when I cut off all contact with him after I met DH. I told him I was done letting him cloud my judgment & felt something different with this one & needed to see where it went. His sister said he was very upset & he tried calling and FB me, but I never responded.
-
Once but looking back I realize that the love I felt for him was not even a fraction of what I feel now for DH. It helps to know that.
-
Yes. It was awful!
-
Yes, I have. Years ago I was completely in love with this guy. We had a very rocky on/off relationship because we were different ethnicities and his mom didn't approve of me and threatened to disown him if he was with me. We kept trying to stay away from each other but we couldn't. So we had a difficult relationship for years in secret from his family. Eventually he got into a semi-arranged relationship...but failed to tell me for several weeks. When he finally told me, it completely broke my heart into a thousand pieces.

@DigAPony: Same here...thank god I didn't marry him. What was I thinking! And my husband now is a milllllion times better.
-
Yea when my first HS boyfriend broke up with me after 2 years, I lost 10 lbs from a broken heart. Seems silly how upset I was when I look back.
-
Yes, terrible break up with my first love. Learned a lot from it - really rough at the time.
-
No not really. There were times we had fights that felt like my heart breaking while we were dating but not really.
-
Yes, by my dad.
-
@californiadreams: Me too!
-
Yes, absolutely. Having said that, I can't imagine if it was my husband. That would be devastatingly painful. I was young and dumb when I first had my heart broken. Now that I'm in a relationship with my husband, I can only imagine the heart break would be worse.
-
Yep, twice. I lived and learned and never again dated guys like them.
-
Nope. I guess I'm not really the heartbroken type of person because I'm kinda aloof!
-
Twice. It was awful at the time but now I"m grateful.
-
@spaniellove: we both dodged bullets!
-
Yes, but it was the very best thing. But, only 9 years later can I say that.
-
The first time, it wasn't because we broke up -- that part was hard but okay. We stayed friends afterward, though, and I had hopes of eventually getting back together so when I found out he'd been dating someone else since shortly after our breakup but was too chicken to tell me about it, that was really rough.
The second time, I never even dated the guy but I have never fallen so hard and so fast for someone before or since. When they say "love at first sight," this was it (but in retrospect, maybe more lust than love? Whatever it was, intense doesn't begin to describe it). Too bad he was something of a playboy...I really tried to play it cool but internally the whole situation (more complex than I want to get into here) was like a knife that just kept slowly turning and turning over the course of several months.
