Are there no guarantees in a relationship?

Answers:

Wow...sounds a little like what happened to me when I left for college.

I was dating someone and we were so happy. Then I went 3 hours away for college while he stayed. Things were really good at first but as I got more involved in college life I started changing and he didn't. I wasn't "available" for him, so he cheated on me.

People Change

Now although that didn't happen in this case the point is people change. When most people go to college they do change in some way shape or form. I know it's hard, and because of that, friendships that seemed like they would last forever don't and relationships break up.

You're right, his ex is still a nice person.

Your ex didn't go sour. She was giving you some clues that she was changing. As you said: she wasn't good at communicating so you would need to look at her actions and not her words to know something is going on.

There Are No Guarantees

There is no guarantee in the game of love, although all of us wish we could get satisfaction guaranteed. It's hard.

Although it seems that you can never love another, just give it time. You will find someone that is just as happy as you are, but keep your eyes open. If you are sitting around mourning the loss of K then you might miss out on that cute girl in the back of your math class.

I know for me, after getting shafted as I did, I thought I could never love someone like I had--but I was wrong.

Three months later I met my current boyfriend. He fell for me but I was scared. I explained what happened and he was patient enough to wait until I felt like I could trust him.

It gets hard at times--he'll say something and it makes me think of my ex and I get scared. But as time goes on the heart heals and eventually your heart will open and you can give your love freely to someone who truly deserves it.

Moving On...

BE CAUTIOUS...only give to those who give the same amount.

And to move on? Start dating again! Get back in there! Just don't try and find another K because:

  1. that is unfair to the other girl, putting expectations on her, and...
  2. you'll never find her.

Hope I helped a little =)

Time heals all wounds.
