If you love something set it free... walkingzombie: I just read the most amazing power point email from a friend in Brazil, I couldn't stop crying for about 1 hour because I realized sooo much.
the english translated version of what hit me was this;
"to the selfish lovers;
love hurts when you kno the one you love happy with someone else, but it hurts more knowing the one you love is unhappy with you..."
you know, I've been depressed, mad, flat out ANGRY, and now, i've come to realize that he's happy right now, he's happy without me, I would never want to saccrifice that for me, I'll move on eventually, I've no doubt, sometimes people do bad things in a relationship because they're not happy there, it doesn't justify bad behavior, but in the end, it doesn't matter who's right or wrong or who was the cause for the downfall of the relationship, the message is loud and clear...
I'll wholeheartedly admit, that I love him so much that his happiness is worth every tear i've shed and every piece my heart has broken into.
this will probably sound corny in the morning, but I;m humbling myself infront of everyone here. I'll be ok, like celine Dion said, "my heart will go on" I just genuinely wasn't able to let go until today...
ahhh acceptance, I never thought I'd see the day....

Re: If you love something set it free... Feel: Walk, I am so proud of you, to be able to feel this way...
I jsut hate that when people aren't ahppy they hurt someone in the process... why not just walk and then do what u gotta do, why add allt eh added heartach to make the person hurt always ask why or feel they are the one to blame, better yet or not feel good enough...
To be honest, I don't believe my X is happy with the OW... My X is like a bird and needs to flauk... she will only stop him with her threats and that will make him hate her even more. Not to mention he ain't happy with himself!
But I see your point and your friend is right! Good Luck!

and when you wrote this, this made me cry even more. I admire your new found peace (if you can call it that...) or self realization.
Re: If you love something set it free... worchid76: Words of wisdom babe. Kicked my butt but it is true
Re: If you love something set it free... alonewith2: But what if they aren't happy with the other person? This is what always kicked my ass...knowing he really wasn't much better off than he was before. In fact, he was worse off.
