Relationships for a Reason, Season or Lifetime

November 24, 2009 at 1:00 am
By Psychic Faith ext. 9608

People come into our lives for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. At first, it may be hard to determine the nature and purpose of a relationship. Many of our callers at California Psychics have questions regarding this topic. Perhaps these descriptions will help somewhat to clarify the mystery.

When someone is in our life for a reason, it is usually to meet a need that has been expressed. They have come to assist us through a difficulty — to provide guidance and support no matter how short lived. Perhaps they’ve come along to bring us the healing power of kindness and hope. They have most definitely shown up to reactivate a virtue within us to aid us physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. They seem like a godsend and are here for the reason we need them to be. Then, without warning, usually at an inconvenient time to us, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they simply walk away. Sometimes they act out and force us to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled and therefore their work is done. The prayer you sent out has been answered and it is time now to let go. This may be a difficult time because often we think the lesson has not been learned or purpose fulfilled.

When people come into our lives for a season, it is because our turn has come to share, grow, or learn with this person. They may bring an experience of joy and truly make us laugh. They may teach us something we have never done before or even thought about doing. They are usually bringing us some form of creativity and wisdom that may unlock a beautiful gift inside that has been lying dormant. Often these mentors and instructors open our minds to new ideas and dimensions. They usually bring an enormous amount of grace with them. Take it in, believe it and enjoy — it is very real, if only for a season.

Lifetime relationships present us with life long challenges and lessons for growth. Not only do love partners fall into this category but parents, siblings and long term friendships as well. They bring us love, patience, forgiveness, generosity, compassion, etc. — those virtues we build a life upon in order to maintain emotional balance. Our job is to be open and receptive to the lesson and love the person that is bringing it. Some lifetime partners can be very gentle and some quite challenging. As a dear friend once exclaimed: “What if that person was put into your life to simply drive you crazy … after all, you did say you wanted to learn about forgiveness!”

Many relationships appear to separate and end, yet as one metaphysical study A Course In Miracles reminds us, “No relationship occurs by accident, nor is what appears to be the end of the relationship a real end. Yet all who meet will someday meet again, for it is the destiny of all relationships to become holy (healed, forgiven).”

    It was such a gorgeous day here. And as I wtheacd the horror on TV, I kept looking out my window thinking this just can’t be real. Everything looked so normal in our suburban village except when the skies emptied. We lived near O’Hare and that was the most amazing part of the day and night absolutely no planes on their pathways to the airport.

    I was in a relationship for about 3 years with a man that I loved very much. Unfortunately, even though he professed his love to me, he was lying all the time. he actually was seeing someone when I met him and promised me it was over between them. I believed him. It was not! actually they are STILL together! to make matters worse, this was a long-distance thing with us and therefore he had his life with her and me on the side whenever he decided he needed a ‘change’. Like I said, I put up with it .. broken dates, change of plans, not able to make any committments, etc. etc. and then finally decided I was done. I threw in the towel (3rd time actually) .. he always convinced me to ‘let him try again’ in the past but this time i made it stick. best decision i could ever make. I met a wonderful man only weeks after he and I were formally thru . .and fell in love .. now i do believe that the 1st
    guy did come into my life for a reason .. but i am still not sure what that was! just glad the lesson is over … also had similiar relationship 35 years ago and that ended with him just by him walking away without no reason or expaination .. that was terrible and something i will never forget … guess i had some lessons to learn .. i do believe that i will meet up with them again someday and then MAYBE i can find out why they came into my life.. till then i will be very happy with this wonderful man who i love and who loves me and hope this is the ‘lifetime’ partner i have been looking for .. wish me luck!

    Hi there, I am new to this, but i think it is true about people coming in to our lives for a reason. I believe that people come into our lives to learn from us as well. Some people come into our lives when we need them the most as guardian angels or destiny put us in their way to help them and be there for them. The main key and purpose of this is to teach them and learn from them. I read all of these comments and most of them had have their heart broken by a cheating partner. I think that when someone betrays your trust, loyalty, and causes you pain the only fair thing to do to yourself is to stay away from that person and to move on. As hard and painful as it is, you must learn and to walk away from that pain. Dont stay with cheating partners. Cheaters dont changed! Also, learn to forgive them in order to release the pain and seek help if necessary. Once you had decided to move on DONT LOOK BACK AND DON’T LET HIM/HER BACK INTO YOUR LIFE AGAIN. There is nothing else for you to learn from that person, but getting hurt again. Also, there are wonderful people that come into our lives to help us, teach us, love us, and be there for us. Those people we should cherish them and keep them as long as they want to be with us. Life and people are full of surprises. Good bless you and good luck to all.

    It has been 4 years. I am married now, and I can’t seem to forget about my ex. I am constantly thinking and dreaming of him. Everything and everyone remind me of him. How can I get him off my mind?


  7. missy April 23, 2010 at 7:17 pm

    O my, you hit this one on the head. I met someone at work, he started to come on to me one thing led to another and we broke it off. after he had gotten married, I to am married, I emailed him, things started all over again. to make a long story short we were in about a four year relationship,he told me he loved me. 3days later his wife called my house. needless to say now we have not got togather, or talked 2 years! It’s killing me.
    I see him around, she’s with him always. He has never once tried to contact me or talk to me. It has broken my heart so bad! I do think he is seeing someone I work with, yes he’s a knowen player and cheeter, and I am heart broken! I miss him so bad! everyone I talk to tells me move on find someone new.
    How can you tell someone you LOVE them and walk away! I hope his heart breaks!

    I was mysteriously sent a similar note from a friend I never met. I was entranced in finding out what it meant to me and my new “love” who I was falling for. I saw what I didn’t want to see and my husband who I am married to for 13 years just cheated on me once again for 7 months earier that year.
    This new love was not the person but the love was the person Ibecame when I ventured out into the world after being faithfull for 13 years. I was in love with love and this new guy was a unresolved crush I had when I worked with him almost 30 years ago. I waited for that kiss and got it. I thought he was my answer he was single we were very sexually attracted and he didn’t want to continue because I was still married . Was it the truth or was it a line. I know he was falling, the fireplace the mickey mouse,disney lampshade etc….

    I met someone a few months ago. Although we came together for a love connection it did not last. But something very interesting happened…he told me that he has prayer with a group every nite and I asked to join in.

    I have been neglecting my spiritual life for a bit of time, but I asked to join the prayer group one night, and it as very refreshing, it was like fanning the coals of my soul. The prayer left me so refreshed, and I knew then that he was sent to remind me of the precious gift within that had been neglected for such a long time.

    Unfortunately we parted ways, and it was not on a good note which I can say honestly it was somewhat my fault, but regardless he was sent into my life for that purpose to remind me that GOD is always just a prayer away and that I needed to go back to my spiritual roots.

    Thank GOD for him…

    I had a situation in January of 2009 where my best friend who was like a sister to me, decided she wanted to have an affair with my best mail friend who was like a brother to me. I asked her not to coz I could see that it would all get ugly, we she started seeing him and they both kept lying to me and telling me how silly I was to think anything was going on….anyway, after I caught her lying about lying to my face ( which she commonly did during this initial period) we had a big argument and while I never said anything to her that was not a truth, I did say it in an angry manner to the point that she then disowned me, after only 3 months earlier telling me I was more like family to her than her own family; we had been friends for 3 years and very close. Anyway after this argument, she then turned my male (only ever platonic) friend against me by setting me up with some horrible stuff so it looked like I had done it.

    I know that I will never allow either of them into my life ever again as friends, but to this day, I still can not understand what the lesson I was meant to learn from it all, surely it can’t be don’t ever trust again.

    While I have pretty much moved on, I still feel so sad sometimes when I think about losing my best friend and what was even sadder is that I couldn’t even talk to my other best friend about this because he was already having sex with her and was so #$%@ struck as a figure of speech and therefore believed that I was looney like she had convinced him (so she could have him all to herself).

    I read an article above about praying to the angels, I have tried that and asked for answers, I have prayed to my Mother and Brother who have passed and still I get no answers…..how do I learn what I am supposed to learn. Having said that, I am also a big believer that everything happens for a reason, problem is I am still to understand what my reason it.

    Wow…this story really hit home for me…I am 23..I met a man last April. I had the lowest self esteem because of a previous relationship that went bad. We got to talking he even took me on one of his business trips. Things progressed and I saw myself beginning to florish in everything in life-work,the relationship with myself and others. I fell for him truly and felt he loved me too. Things were going good. Then this January he abruptly stopped talking to me and said he had someone new. It hurt and still does…until i read this article. He was a temporairy soul mate. I felt it in my heart as i read this article. He showed me the things that made me beautiful, he proved to me that i am worthy of someone good and that I am beautiful and to be myself with someone. That who i am was truly beautiful inside and out. To this day, I carry all the words we shared in my heart and he gave me the tools i needed to be strong and truly showed me how to love another. He showed me that path of recovery from a broken heart into a beautiful strong woman. Thank you.


  13. Ria February 14, 2010 at 4:40 am

    dear Faith…. It is a beautiful article and i get a lot of insight and guidance from the different articles posted here…
    I have a certain situation in my life right now, and i’m looking for some answers if i can get any… I’m hoping for an insight…

    I am 38 years old, and I care for a man very deeply, but am going through a lot of pain right now because he is neither revealing his feelings, nor communicating his thoughts to me. He is 10 years younger to me and I met him about 2 years back. Unfortunatly our relationship has been a little complicated, because we both are married, but when I met him initially, he was unmarried. He recently got married (couple of months back or so) by an arranged matchmaking way (which is a common thing in the part of the world where I live, if one hasn’t found a partner out of love). just for the sake of an additional information, his sunsign is ‘Aquarius’. Well, to continue, I too have had an arranged marriage and am 13 years into my marriage. Despite having a settled life, a happy married existence and an understanding and caring husband, I have no idea why i developed such deep feelings for this man. I have still not understood where my feelings originated and why they went so far, as I was not really missing anything as such in my life. The only reason I can ascribe to it is perhaps an intense emotional connection, a passion, and a certain kind of romantic tension which i had never experienced so far with anyone.
    About an year back, his fiancée got to know about me and him, and around the same time my husband also found out about us. Since trouble started to brew and we both didn’t want to disrupt our lives and those of our partners too, we decided to break off our communication with each other, and work on our separate relationships. For about 6 months there was no communication between us, and though i’m not really sure what exactly he went through, he seemed to get detached and ingrained into his new role. As for me, I also sorted my own life at my end, but I was still emotionally connected and went through a period of great depression not knowing what was going on with him, but didn’t try to contact him in any manner, giving him the space and freedom to choose the course he wanted in his life. This went on for a about 6-7 months and then, just a few months before his marriage he began to give me many non-verbal messages and ‘feelers’ on the internet about his feelings still being there for me, to which I also reciprocated in the same non-verbal ways. And just days before his marriage he left me a note, the essence of which conveyed that he still desired me and wanted me to be a part of his life in some manner, despite the strange circumstances we were in, and that our understanding and feelings would remain. We hadn’t spoken at all for a long time, and this kind of open communication from him at a time like this was so sudden that I dint know how exactly to react, though my feelings were always in place. Something…or certain words maybe, that I wrote in reply to that note, sent him a wrong vibe, and he misunderstood the meaning of my message totally. Since then, despite a couple of mail exchanges between us, there are hurt feelings, and now we are back to where we were a couple of months back. My attempts to re-establish communication, and wanting to have a proper open talk, have only met with silence. I would have liked to clear it all up, but it seems for some reason he doesn’t want to talk now. Though I sense he is still visiting my profiles everyday to check my moves, I have to say that it is after all my guess only. He is acting very indifferent and some of the things he is now doing, seem very deliberate, and are hurting me a lot and I don’t know how I should deal with this situation and with my emotions too.
    I know that things have moved on a bit, and I have no qualms about him having a gud and satisfactory life, I also understand the fact that he is younger and going through many new processes right now with his marriage and all, but I feel tormented when I get this thought in my mind that he doesn’t care so deeply for me. I neither have any expectation beyond what he can comfortably give, and neither do I want to ‘look’ needy, as I really am ‘not’ in need of anything superficial. I have gone through a lot of intense emotions in this relationship and I hate to feel that this relationship came in my life so late, but for no deeper value. I want to know where we are headed really. Can I hope for an experience of richness and depth of love from this man, or am I only headed towards pain and disillusionment? I want to free myself, but without losing the depth of love I feel for him. Please give me some insight…… thanks and sincere regards….

    Dam girl. Seems to me like he really does love you. But the brutal reality is, he can enjoy other cookies too. He loved things about your and at the same time likes the wild side too and wants to live two lives. And he knows with you it can last maybe a lifetime in his eyes and a whore, well there there for a reason. To entertain with no feelings. Obiously he loves you. If you get back with him. Let him work for it. If you mve in together i don’t think you’ll ever be at peace thinking he’s out repeating old habits. Forget and move on or forgive don’t act like you didn’t do the same thing at one point or another thinking your man will never find out. If you think like you did when you ever cheated (if u ever cheated) I think we all have then you can move on to a happy relationship. Oviously you want to get back wtih him if your asking advice.


  15. Maria February 13, 2010 at 5:11 am

    This by far is the best advise so far. Yes it’s against all loyalty and well morals but if we can only change the way we think, and see it for what it is, then the heart will heal much faster. Men are men, and they if not influenced by other people there influenced by theitch between there pants that needs to be releaved. The love is there. If they didn’t tell you it’s to protect your feelings at the same time adventure and have a lil fun too. Once you open your mind to see THERE point of VIEW in a NUETRAL non BIAS twards your own feelings and betrayal the sooner you can lessen the pain. I mean don’t get me wrong. It’s still wrong but it helps with ones own painI know. I learned the hard way. Putting myself in HIS shoes cuz I’ve worn the same shoe too…. As long as it’s not on pourpose, then it can be worked on.

    My husband had a seven month affair while I quite ill . He found his “first sexual partner” from 27 years ago and I noticed he was talking and texting her all day. I guestioned this new reunited “friendship” My husband told me he was BFF with this former girlfriend.I didn”t like this arrangement and told him end it.He then told me he couldn”t choose between me, his wife or this other woman. He called her up in front of me and told her it is over and I found out it was all a act. He asked if she could sleep over and I said no but he didn”t care.I then started to read their texts and I was horrified. She said I was a unfit mother and wife and didn’t deserve to have my kids etc. Over the summer our fights over her was a everyday thing. Then I suddenly felt a strange chill and knew he was having sex with her for the last seven months. He took my kids to see her and they saw the two of them holding hands and told me they hated her. He admitted that he slept with her 3x only lol and he was in lust with her. Those words crushed me. I am a fighter and decided I wanted this loserout of my life. My kids were emotionally unstable and they come first. My brother told me to stay with him. As soon as I leftwith the kids the “magical” lust spell was broken and he told this woman he only wanted his family back and how he made a huge mistake. This woman I believe was evil. She wore 5 beaded evil eye protection bracelets on one arm. She was shocked that my husband didn’t run into her arms. My husband begged me to forgive him. I had to go home because of many reasons. I hate myself for coming back. I have a rare illness and my children told me she asked them what is wrong with your mother she is ugly. When I heard this I knew that she would pay for this comment. I was brought up wish or mock the dead or sick and bad luck will come back to her twicwfold.
    I found out this month she has a malignant cyst on her shoulder. I also found out she was very unhappy and could not find another man like my husband.
    Then I knew my husband had to pay also. I was on facebook and someone who knew my husband in college used to work with me at a camp, we were both lifequards.I was 17 and had a major crush on him but he had a girlfriend. Well we started to write little notes on facebook and it turns out he had a crush on me too. Now we want to meet and I fill all this was meant to happen. My husband is so jealous of this successful lawyer. It turns out he recently divorced. I haven’t seen him yet but I can feel the chemistry when we talk. This is meant to be do you agree? What comes around goes around.

    If people only communicated from the start. People don’t talk to each other. I was married to a low class woman for 4 years. The only thing we talked about was doggy style or missionary. The only decisions you could allow her to make was swallow or spit it out. Any other decision and she would screw it up.
    Her whole fmaily was nothing but trash. Every female was tattooed, pierced, laid in bars, whores, sluts, used drugs, smoked cigarettes and all the males were dirt bags.


  18. Lorrie January 28, 2010 at 9:23 am

    It sounds to me like he is making an effort after all of this time.
    Just take it easy and enjoy his company. Do not put pressure on yourself or him by giving him a time frame. Just let it unfold. Make sure that you are taking care of yourself like you did when he was not around, keep doing that whether he is in your life or not.
    That is what he likes about you. You can live without him. Stay the course.
    Enjoy what is don’t make more out of it.
    You will find out the answers because all will be revealed. Especially a lie.
    The truth always comes out. The truth won’t change. Good luck.


  19. Lorrie January 28, 2010 at 9:13 am

    Don’t worry about him. Worry about yourself. Live your life, do fun new things, spend time with family, bff, other friends. Keep busy with responsibilities. Don’t call him. Put him out of your head and take care of yourself. If he really loves you and wants you in his life he will make contact…I give it two weeks. Just don’t contact him. Let him come to you.

    He is saying that “he doesn’t know what he wants” because you are acting in a way that is needy or negative and stressful on him. Just leave him be if he does return change and be confident in yourself…Love yourself first. If he calls or comes back great if not, well he means what he says and you are not the one for him. Why would you want to be with someone that does not feel the same way as you do? I hurts, but if you concentrate on making yourself happy and not leaving that up to someone else…well you will be okay. Good Luck!


  20. Lorrie January 28, 2010 at 9:05 am

    Latha…
    Don’t have sex with him. If he really cares or loves you then he will wait. If you have any doubts about him, you should wait. If you wait you won’t have to worry about what happens next. You should wait until there is a reasonable commitment from him. Something your a secure in. If you are not secure with him do not have sex with him.


  21. hana January 27, 2010 at 7:27 pm

    Yea, i feel the same way. i have had the good fortune to admit special people for a reason, season and lifetime into my life, at different points of my life. The article has put into perspective previously unresolved issues and unanswered questions.


  22. kim January 27, 2010 at 5:21 am

    kim, hi i haven’t been happy in so long or get anyone to love me the way that i give love. i’m in love with this man who doesn’t know what he want’s he called it off and said that he will be moving back home but i feel that Ross really loves me. it hurts so much. and on top of that i have a job that shouldn’t be a stressful as i make it out to be so what should i do.


  23. Mary January 27, 2010 at 3:34 am

    Dear Heart, I don’t know if this will make you feel any better but it may make you think and start with forgiving yourself and be happy again! His decision to cheat had nothing to do with you. This is a character deficit in his part that only he can fix, and no matter how hurt the situation makes you, you need to take care of your emotional self and let him get it out of his system and you need not to worry about what he is doing and instead develop other interest that will enhance who you are as a person and then you will get answers. Believe me God gave us all strengths and gives that we have not tapped into. Sometimes difficult situations happen to us to lead us where we need to be. Good luck and Blessings to you.


  24. Faith - 9608 January 26, 2010 at 10:44 pm

    Hi Yani,

    Thank you for your post. I can really feel your pain and stress about this situation with your husband. It is the hardest thing on earth to let go especially without any understanding or explanation. You need some pieces of the puzzle revealed to you first about your husband and then you can make sense of this situation for yourself as you grow and learn to make the right choices for yourself.

    I’m happy to read for you and assist you in finding a resolution if you’d like… or at least start to be able to see this more clearly for yourself.

    One thing I might suggest you can do right now, even though it may sound trite to some, pray to the Angels, specifically your Guardian Angel. Ask for the clarity you need, ask for what is hidden to be revealed to you and ask for peace of mind. When you ask, you get answers!

    Seems you already have a very active dream state and I know the Angels will give you the comfort and assistance you need to help make sense of all this.

    Thank you for writing and keep in touch.

    Blessings, Faith – 9608

    Only you can answer your own question. The answer lies within your heart. Always do what feels right and you will never make a wrong decision again.


  28. Shakayla December 23, 2009 at 12:25 pm

    It does seem as if someone can come in your life for a reason, a season, or a lifetime. I feel that this person in my life has just came along for a reason. He has been there for me, and created a feeling that I have never felt in my life, and a little situation happened. That then caused us to remain as friends and friends only. He was a very great person though once we became closer. I still talk to him, and I am moving on to excepting him as a friend. Nothing more.

    Hi, :-) I have someone in my life that shares a very strange and very strong connection with me. We have gone through many things as friends, good and bad, and our friendship is still as strong as ever. We drive each other crazy sometimes, and other times we are at peace and get along extremely well. I feel this person is a lifelong friend and they have said the same. We learn different things from each other and I think it’s great. x

    I really would appreciate a fresh perspective.I had a relationship which ended badly when he cheated and had an instant relationship immediately afterwards.He says that because he didn’t have sex it wasn’t cheating, but I think even if he wasn’t lying about that it was emotional.We fell out of touch for 3yrs.One day I was visiting my folks when he called.I never answer their phone and he had memorized it and never forgot it.I mistakenly took that as a sign that he had me in his mind the whole time, but if so then why would he have done what he did.To make matters worse when he did come back he wanted sex and to see other girls at the same time.I didn’t wait long to end it this time.I was cut throat and ended it abruptly.I wrote him telling him to never contact me again because he didn’t respect me, my wishes or even know how to be a friend.He writes me 3 months later.I didn’t answer.He writes me 1yr later and I’m feeling generous and write back because there is something different about him.He got out of that bar manager job that I hated because it kept him around druggies and whores.He was back in school and wanted to have dinner.I relented after 2 months to his request.It’s been 2 months since we’ve been back in contact, but none of the old bs is there.He’s not being a cad in any way.He says he loves me.I don’t respond.I am having trouble deciding if he’s truly changed or it’s just another phase.There was a time where I couldn’t live without him but he changed that and yes I can live without him.I’m still the same nice person I ever was…I wonder can anyone tell me how long to give this before I think it’s real change? I think 6 months.I know I can live without him.The question is do I want to live with him.How can one spot true change??

    Mandy I know this guy.The same thing happened to me almost word for worda year ago. They are scared of what they feel and what they share with us. It want ever work. They want allow it. They are afraid to love us that deeply. I am still trying to get over him.
    We will find the right man. I know it. :) re

    Dear Confuse
    If you still love your husband and are attracted to him, dont keep cheating on him. If ur not satisfied sexually with him u need to have a better communication with him and should let him know about it, so that he can find a new way to keep you happy and satisfied. That younger guy is fullfilling his fantasy of being with a married woman and the excitement of both of you getting caught. A man that wants to break a marriage is not a good and honest man at all! He is only having fun w/u. Dont let that happen! You will not only lose a stable marriage and loving husband that loves you, but your children will lose a stable and happy home. Good Luck

    I understand what you feel now and that true because i had been hurt before but if you try to open your heart to somebody who want to inter and be positive and looking forward to your happiness and am sure you can have the happiness that you looking for.being hurt for our past is the big thing that we can have some lesson and to learn our mistake and to prove to ourselve how strong we are.
    God Bless,
    Fe

    Having a soulmate there are connections
    They will send you messages in your dreams too. 30 years ago my soulmate left with out a word.But In my dreams I get messages I didnt understand them until he came back into my life.He said that for years that leaving me played on his mind and that there was not a day go by he didnt think about me and regretted it. I truly believe things happen for a reason . Lynn


  40. charlene December 9, 2009 at 6:42 pm

    I found my soulmate, and lost him somehow, now I have a boyfriend whom which sounds exactly like my lost soulmate, but does not look like him, I wonder if it is him and maybe god showed me my future husband maybe a preminission i dont know.


  41. lt December 9, 2009 at 1:39 pm

    I also do have a dilema in the same sort of way. I have been reccently seperated 9 months very bad seperation, but!! I also had made a good friend about 6 months before I seperated. At first we just talked for hours and hours and we have everything in common. We even know each others thoughts that was a little bit scary. See the only problem is he is married to and he loves his children very much but I know I fell in love with him the day I met him and he says the same thing. But we know we cant act on that so we try to stay just friends. It is very hard to stay just friends when we know every personal detail about each other. I just dont know what to do. I dont have anyone right now except for him but I think he is fixin to let me go because it is so hurtful sometimes that we cant be together or spend time together to just talk. I dont know it is just way to complicated but I cant help how I feel and it really hurts more than he or anyone else will ever know.

  43. barbarra December 9, 2009 at 8:53 am

    I am new here, and I need some advice…My classmate from high school and I set a date to see each other. we keep texting and he always phoned me. when we see each other, I felt like I’m falling in love with him, though he is married and I been separated for 3years. In my age, i was wondering why I can still fell this way, to fall in love with him? After that night, he never talked to me, but I know he loves me, he never spoke anything about love but I can feel that he loves me. I know that there’s something wrong with it. Don’t know how to forget him, I’m getting hopeless and I’m so depressed…How can I forget him? thanks

  47. Robin December 9, 2009 at 6:53 am

    Dear Faith,
    Your letter put a lot into perspective. Two years ago I met my true soul mate. He made me happier than I had ever been in my life. My children even loved him, but it only lasted three months. He took my son hunting on the first day of buck, had a heart attack and passed away right in front of him. People tell me to get over him and move on, but I just can’t do that. My son can’t get over what happened either. However, it has taught me a very va;uable lesson…NEVER take your loved ones for granted, because every time they walk out that door it could be the last time you see them.


  48. Ravenless Tower December 9, 2009 at 5:33 am

    Good HEAVENS I hope you’re wrong! I recently came in contact again with a man I once loved and have held in fond memories my entire adult life…
    After 22 years he reappears and we reconnect… he is loving, attentive, amazing! We text for three months straight before meeting again after so much time.
    As it turns out, it was all a game to him… find me, seduce me, give me everything he assessed I needed and then end all communication with no expection.
    He a textbook psychopath – always has been – I just wasn’t old enough to understand “back in the day” and didn’t recognize what was happening until it was over and I was shellshocked.
    “No relationship occurs by accident, nor is what appears to be the end of the relationship a real end. Yet all who meet will someday meet again, for it is the destiny of all relationships to become holy (healed, forgiven).”
    Ok… I forgive him, I’m moving on older and wiser – but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let that be the REAL END!
    *smile*
    NEXT!


  49. Vickie December 9, 2009 at 5:33 am

    I’m suffering from a broken heart right from a
    relationship like this…..the sadness is killing
    me, with no answers of does or if he really cares. Was he just using me or did he just get
    borded……
    He really put a lot into getting me to go out
    with him…waiting for me after work, walking to
    my car, coming to talk to me as much as he could.
    That all to 6 months or more, we had a thing go
    on and all of a sudden he just STOPPED. Now I’m confused, sad broken hearted…the thing of it is
    I fell in love, and him wel…………
    What a way to kill the holiday

    Dear Faith….
    I was moved by what I just read. What I wanted to share was… I recently had the love of my life come back to me. I let him go years ago… did not think much about him,,, But at times allowed my mind to think about him a little. One Sunday Morning in August 09. I was on my way to the store in the early norning and he was coming from the store I was on my way too. We could not have passed each other without speaking. Sine then we have been together and loving one another… I must say that I have never felt better. We have loved each other for sometime now…. It’s interesting to hear what he says about me. He thought I was involed with someone else so that is why he never said anything to me. We where great friends. We went swimming together. rode our bikes in the early mornings like 4am.. YES I said 4AM in the morning. SO you see we where developing a wonderful friendship. Never in a million years did I think I would be with him. I knew I loved him very much. we will be getting married this year…. Blessed it be clayhoney
