I was in a long distance relationship with a Marine for 3 years. He was deployed for half of our relationship. I finally realized that I was losing touch with who I really am, and justifying things in my mind with the hope that things would work out. But reality is, I am someone who demands and needs attention- that doesn't make me clingy.. I am just a regular fucking female.. so I called it off, I couldn't handle being put on the backburner anymore.

yes most definitely
Yeah. I have. And it fucking sucked. I got over it when I realized she wasn't all that. I had the blinders on.
yes - thought so - then realized it was more infatuation - still painful!
Yeah. Never fall in love with a samurai woman from Anime
Yeah....happened more then once actually.
When I was a senior in high school I fell in love/lust with an older cousin's new wife. She was gorgeous and flirty. Thirty years later when her husband died I visited out of respect for my cousin and his family. His widow was still beautiful and had kept herself in great shape. Wonderful things ensued at a local Holiday Inn until I had to return home to my own family. Even though our attraction was similar, so was our reluctance to disappoint or shock oru families. We've avoid contact ever since.
yes ... the memories still soo vivid...

Yes and she knows how I feel about her.
Though we met on the internet the feelings that we shared were real.
I still feel her in my presents daily, think about her all of the time.
We have not talked for a few months now, and it saddens my heart that we are not able to continue the relationship. She is the lady of my dreams.
I do only want for her all of the happiness that the world has to offer.
I hope that someday we may again connect and share these feelings together.
But alas life does go on.


And somebody puts my exact feelings into words
Although I didn't meet my love on the internet
the worst feeling ever is heartbreak
yeah it totally sucks, she just considers me her best friend, she loves me but not like that, she says it'll never be that way.
Sadly, yes. It sucks horribly
Yes, but never admitted it to anyone except myself, even when someone asked me outright if I liked him, especially as said person liked him as well.
Going through that now...recently realized I have deep feelings for my best friend of nearly 8 years. Still confused about how it'll turn out, though...mixed signals, promises made and broken, an ex-girlfriend (who also happens to be another good friend of mine), and a half-year separation (my choice to try and clear my head) makes things a little more complicated. cry
Yes, but I accept circumstances as they are, and enjoy it for the moment. One day it will hurt, no doubt, but for now love is a mindset too good to give up.
Yes I have. There are two people who I have loved and never had a chance with.

I love someone now that I will never have. It is hard but I can see it and don't expect it to go anywhere beside the friendship that we have. Its easier knowing that while he may not feel exactly the same that I know he cares.

The other one is a friend of my families we grew up together as cousins and I have always felt a connection towards him. He has helped me through many hard times. He is a marine and even his girlfriend has the same name as mine. I think that he may have some feeling for me but never said anything. I told him once what I felt and he pretended not to notice.

So in conclusion, I have a soft heart.
Yes, I fell in love with a co-worker and I mean "in love" rather than just lusted after her. It was a real teenage style crush, which is embarrassing when you are in your forties.

I dealt with it by inviting her round for a meal with my wife and I. That took some of the heat out of my feelings for her and she became a good platonic friend. Mind you, I think if she had ever invited me to be more than a good friend I would have struggled to say "no". Fortunately for my marriage, my feelings were unrequited.
In high school (almost 35 years ago) I was really good friends with this girl, we were both into sports ,clubs and some classes together. we would do anything for each other.we never got together as boy friend /girl friend because we both had someone at on and off times. we keep in touch threw college some, but were at ends of the country.we meet last year at our reunion and i could tell from the way she talked we let something special slip away from us. we are both married and have kids and grandkids and will not jepordize that but we have to think what would it be like now if only.
Hmm... I wonder if a better question would have been, "Has anybody NEVER fallen in love with someone they couldn't have?"

I, too have loved someone I couldn't have. I was overseas, he was distantly older than me, we were both married. Neither of us was really willing to hurt our spouses and families, but ohhh, it hurt when it was over!
I have, it sucks hardcore and not in the good way lol It sucks even worse when the person you love marries your bestfriend....
Yes. Her - Too giving, too beautiful, too intelligent, too young but...
perhaps too soon.



Yet...
