I Love Him startingover: I can't turn the feelings off, I love and miss him. We have been through so much together and I don't want to let go of that. I don't want to give up and walk away, he is the father of my children and the love of my life.
Re: I Love Him alonewith2: I can understand those feelings all too well. It's what kept me there waiting for over 3 years. But just like with my stbx, you also need to realize that yours is an ass. He's not going to change no matter how hard you wish for it.
One day it finally dawned on me...if he really wanted to be with me, then he would be. Nothing else to insert in that line. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. If it was something he truly wanted, then it would be...so I had to make that choice.
At some point you're going have to make that choice. Whether to hang on, getting hurt at every turn, waiting ever so patiently for him to magically realize what's in front of him....or to walk away with the knowledge that you did your best, gave it your best, yet you deserve better.

Re: I Love Him allmusic76: Hey TT... sorry I havent been around.
Listen, I love her too, but I'm not going to let her hurt me anymore. I don't believe we can choose our emotions, but I do believe we choose how we react to them.
Love him all you want, but love your kids enough to know that loving him isn't enough for him to change things. It's one thing to love someone, it's another thing entirely to feel love for them. I believe that loving someone is an act. It's a gift. You may have feelings for him, but don't let him know. Find a way to let it turn into something else more constructive, that will get you through this.
Re: I Love Him startingover: How the hell do I let go, how do I make the memories stop, how do I make my heart let go?
