That's kind of what happens when you get with the wrong person!

It would be good if we could rewind the clock of time. That's why it's so important to do the right things the first time around. I also have a situation that breaks my heart but I realize we can't turn back the hands of time. Even if we could, the words...the hurt...would still be there. Once spoken or written...not forgotten. And it hurts.

2^ No we cannot turn back time, but sometimes second chances can work out. It just depends how much damage was done. In my case, things got messed up before they ever really got started. If I thought he still felt something for me, I would love to try again. Yes, there is hurt, but the feelings that I have for him are so strong... I know I could put the past where it belongs if I thought we had a chance...

I wish sometimes for going back but it's foolish. It's an everyday foolish like everything in me is on instant replay. The feeling is a ghostly memory of something that was. It's all that kept me from walking out of this decades ago, a blind hope it meant something.

What would you have to lose to tell this person you feel like a second chance would be worth the risk. At least then, you would know. If they don't care for you, of course the answer will be no. Then, you can move on.But if they do care for you and say yes, there is a chance. What do you have to lose. Have courage and tell them how you feel. Go for it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. What if they are the one person who would love you unconditionally ? Good luck to you.

^ i'm not the op, but what you are saying hits home. In my case I have picked up the phone and even started to dial his number. I just can't go through with it. I dream about him and think about him all the time. I just think that the humiliation of him rejecting me has crippled my courage. You say " Nothing ventured, nothing gained"...well there is also the flipside to that, "nothing ventured, nothing lost". If I really thought he would be that one person I had hoped that he was...then i would shout my feelings for him from the highest rooftop in town. I guess I'm just not ready for the finality of it if he rejects me.

1^ I know what you mean. It is scary. The decision is yours. I'm the one who made the comment above yours. I did take a leap of faith and contacted someone that I still love. I am waiting to hear back...or perhaps not hear back. But I do feel good that I went with my heart and reached out. I know I did all I could. If they don't respond, I'll move forward more easily. Isn't it so ironic that nearly everyone is searching for real love. Why is it so hard to find and keep ?I have issues with people lying to me. That is the only real problem I have. But it seems that if I am with someone that I love and feel they love me for maybe a year or two. Dammit.... I catch them in a lie. That's what happened with my last love. However, even if I knew how that relationship would end, I would do it again.....It was worth it. Better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. And the passion and magic was wonderful and real...at least for a while. Still think about that man...although he is NOT the one I recently wrote to. He was a man stuck deep in my heart for years and years.....

I wouldn't do it again. Better to have loved and lost is just something people who lose say to make themselves feel better about it. Besides it's a line from a distinctly non-romantic poem about a man and his brother in the trenches of WWI.

I didn't know that was from a non romantic poem. I'm going to look it up. I love learning something new. I have said that for years and in my heart it is the way I feel. Brothers in the trenches of WWI,,,,,wow...
