Nobody Knows

Everything was right in the start.. i slowly devoted all myself to her without thinking a bit that she might take me and my feelings for granted.. I was demeaned in her eyes....my feelings were nothing for her... She became insensitive... I cried nights.. I behaved like a child only with her and she called me immature and to become a man... My tears were drain water and restless night were my bad habits for her... She told i didn't want to be happy..now, I love her but I'm tired.. don't want to bother her anymore....let her be happy in her world...but it's hard to move... Heart always say to stop and try once more even after doing multiple times...

I can relate to that. Because my daughter Brooklyn who I love so dearly is always in trouble. But I know that everything I have done for her she'll remember one day when I'm gone.

My girls left me for their dad and his wife. They felt they had to or they’d lose him. Kids are resilient? They just push it all down. It still wounds them. Who would think it would only hurt ME? When they wanted Mom, they could not say anything to anyone about it, in fear Dad would find out, and yell at them, as he did if they ever so much as mentioned me. Now they have attachment issues, and it seems they don't hurt walking away, but they do. They just know how to not show it, and how to get past it. They know that after losing their mom, they can leave anyone and survive. They can't see how love is a commitment as much as an emotion. Nobody is perfect, and if you want them to love you for you, and not hold your flaws against you, you will make that sacrifice for them, without any other consideration. Not because you like their mistakes, but because you love THEM for their heart and soul. Unconditionally.

I love this poem. It's so touching. Some years ago, I got in a problem and that was not my fault, but my family did not trust me and blamed it on me. I got very upset not because they blamed me but because they didn't trust me. After some years, I fell in love with someone. He was always there for me, he trust me more than anyone could. We spend most of our time together. But what hurt me was he loved my sister and he got close to me because he wanted my sister to know him. I felt like I was used. I am writing here because now I am all alone and I have no one to share my thoughts. Thank you.

I know this pain all too well...leaving the one you love and having him still love you and knowing you can never be together.

I've recently broken up with my boyfriend. I broke up with him because I thought he would be better off without me. Though I love him a lot, I lied to him, not only once but many times. We’ve broken apart, but I can’t forget him. It’s just very hard. I need him a lot. He said he cannot trust me anymore because I broke his trust over and over. I really regret what I’ve done.

I have been dating my boyfriend for the past two years, and he impregnated another girl and they are staying together. I only found out about this recently, and she is about to give birth. He apologized, and I forgave him, and he wants to be with me. I love him so much that I cannot make a decision. All I know is I love him so much I would do anything for him.

From the first lines to the last, this little poem spoke to me of "loss." Whether of someone moving away in life or (as in my case) passing away forever, the pain and loneliness left behind hurts just the same. This poem expressed it as well as any famous work the unanswered question of love. But your life must go on. And I, too, will try to take my own advice.

Hi my name is Stacey. I am sorta in a love triangle as I have a partner who I've been with 12 years, but now I'm in love with my best guy friend who I've known since I was 13 years old. He makes me smile. He's polite and he is very respectful. My partner has cheated on me more than once. We have 3 kids.

I've been alone for several years now. I'm a single father of 2 wonderful children, ages 16 and 14. I was diagnosed with a terminal illness not long ago and given a time frame to live. Not being able to sleep, I joined a couple chat rooms. I immediately struck up a conversation with a charming young lady. We hit it off, and feelings began to form, so against my better judgment, I informed her of my condition. She was very upset, but she kept chatting. A few days later she introduced me to her friend. I was confused as I had feelings for her. It wasn't long into the conversation that I realized why she had done this. The woman she introduced me to has an illness that may or may not be terminal, depending on transplant. I have grown to love this woman very much, and for the first time in my life I feel true love. Even though we are thousands of kilometers away, I can feel her with me. I'll never meet this love of mine, but she's in my soul.

I'm taken aback at how well you know my story. It's like this was written just for me. Thank you. I have so much respect for you.

I loved someone so badly. I was like mad. I wanted to marry her, but there were cast differences and her father refused. Now she is married, living happily. I am married, too, but I just can't forget her. She is in my mind and heart all the time, even though it has been 7 year.

Exactly how I feel right now. I let go of the guy I loved so much. Nobody can see how much I love him and miss him. I let him go because I saw myself getting bad. But every day I'm getting a little but stronger. I decided I needed a change with myself, so I've decided to change a lot about me. My hair color, eye color, style, and get right with myself. I gotta let this pain go somehow. Even though I miss him like hell, I know it was the right thing to do.

I am also going through my wife having an affair. We've been married for 12 years. I caught them together. We have decided to try and work through it. It's a scary time for us. But I'm so hurt! This is not like the woman I fell for all those years ago. Thanks for sharing.

I was about to cry when I was reading this poem. I am a student who loves a girl. She was my classmate, and I would do anything for her. Actually, I wanted to marry her. I proposed to her and she accepted after one month. We started talking more on the phone. One said she asked if we wanted to live together. Our families did not accept us because we are not in the same caste. She asked her father about inter-caste marriage, and he refused. She told me and said to forget it. How is that possible? I don’t understand why India is divided on the basis of caste. Everyone has two hands, two eyes, one nose, two hands, and two legs. Why does it have to be this way?

I sacrificed my heart for my wife. She promised never to break it. Twelve years, 2 beautiful kids in, I find out she has been having an affair. I've been loyal all these years, putting up with her lies, secrets, and bullcrap 'cause I love her. Funny thing is that I still do but can't go back 'cause trust is key in any relationship. Pretty much put up with a sexless marriage, and I didn't cheat. I tried everything to get her attention with no success as she was having an affair. I'm heartbroken. She thinks I'm mad and all. I'm hurting, feeling lost, disappointed, confused.

I remember when I sacrificed myself for my ex. I threw away my heart for him, and he says he never loved me. We were together for 3 years.

This is so touching! It exactly explains how I feel. I had a breakdown at school and my friends are asking me what's wrong, but the problem is that one of my closest friends moved away and I have family problems. How are you supposed to answer that question if you don't know what to say?!

This poem speaks deeply to me, I fell in love with a girl who didn't share my feelings. For so long I had to pretend that I was okay with just being friends, and it sucks. The feeling of entrapment and soul leeching hurt combined is just too much. I still love her from the bottom of my heart but I have to move on with my life. It helps to know that other people know how I feel and understand because sometimes it feels like I'm the only one. Thank you.
