What is love?...

[Someguy101]

Sorry for the silly question..

Can't get over ex-wife... =(

or rather, she's moved on and I haven't?

Does the oppposite sex just want more power/the upper hand in the relationship?

Long distance relationships ...ehhh

Maybe the memory of her was better than the reality?

Maybe I loved her more than I thought?

I'm a loner, she's a socialite

She has rather wealthy family so I don't think I could ever live up to her standards

And even If I could, like win the lottery, she would only want me for articifial reasons

She don't like cuddles

How the F could I ever be a great father?... If I never had one myself?

The photos of my son hurt !!

My son is just going to know me as a stranger - ... !

Photos and memories are just etched into my brain

I hate thinking 'if only this or only that happened' futile now

I can't afford to just give her trips all over the world and buy her things every day

Inside I think maybe 'just not meant to be'

Although so was probably right about allot of things

she would never boost my confidence or make me feel proud... only rub me in the dirt

I miss the fairytale feeling at the start of relationship before the reality of her kicked in

....
I could never trust her... no way

she would always say 'do you think you are special?'

that hurts

why COULDNT I ever be special? You know, I was a husband?!?

Hi,
I am sorry for this situation. I have asked myself this question since I discovered my husband were cheating on me.
Marriage is not easy, it may fail for affairs, selfishness, immaturity, financial problems... and all that related to love as well. Can Love vanish the other problems? If it could, what is LOVE? It is a very subjective word/feeling/wish...
I see you are very attached to the good memories and to the dream you wanted to live with her.
What you feel for your son is PURE LOVE, why does he have to see you as stranger? being away of her doesn't mean you have to be away from him. It doesn't matter if later he has a step dad, you will always be his only FATHER, nobody can take that away from you.
To me, love is a gorgeous/the strongest feeling when you are a parent.

- Love for your partner is beautiful and fragile.-
In my case, it is not easy to show, and coldness can take its place in times when it is about my husband, due to bad memories I still hold.

I love my husband, he cheated, we got separated, I forgave, we came back together, my love for him is still here, just it is a different love, not unconditional this time.

What ever love is, we have to be mentally strong, and do activities to feel peace with ourselves. I do not take my advise always, but I hope others do much better than me, like you.

I hope to hear from you soon!
Thank you for sharing.

Love is just a over-glorified word to me...

Just something to describe emotions/ feelings of attachment.

Attachment is pain.

Actions speak louder than words, doesn't matter what they say if they do stuff behind your back, or are just using you...

I'm over women and their secret little agendas/motives they always have for a guy...

If I could go back in time I would have NEVER MARRIED!!

Just a financial contract...

when burnt ppl used to tell me "NEVER marry" they were right :S

Love is something your heart tells you you need and want and tries to stop your brain from getting involved because it knows better. IMO
