Why is it that love is so complicated? We read all the fairy tales when we are younger, how everyone lives happily ever after. Of course, at some point or another, we all think we have found our happily ever after. But, when we see the true light, and it is gone, where do we go from there? When the one person you love is not who you thought they were, and it breaks your heart into so many pieces that you feel you can never mend again. Or, when you see two people holding hands, and you wish that were you, and it feels like your whole world is crashing down around you, how are you supposed to feel?

I have been there so many times, over and over. I always wondered to myself why everything in love has to be complicated. One theory I have is that people in general are complicated. Love gets complicated by the fact that there are two people present, who at some point or another, are going to have differing views on the world. Another theory is the basic fact that people don't always have the right chemistry.

However, in your heart and mind, you may feel there is something there. They leave you, and you are left wondering whether or not you are missing out on this terrific person, or whether they are missing you at all. Or, think that maybe since the person did leave, after they do leave, they are never going to miss you or take the time out to think about how much love there was between you in the first place? I am sure that almost everyone who has been in love with someone, and lost them, has felt this way. It is so difficult to get over these feelings, and so difficult to feel like we can even get up out of bed. Being in love can be such a wonderful wonderful part of our lives, but yet so difficult.

You sound like you have been hurt, and love is complicated. The honeymoon stage or at the begining of a realtionship, things are all wonderful and magical. That fades with time, but the love is still there in many ways. Love hurts, I know the feeling, 13 years come to a ugly end. But don't give up, take your time, and be cautious.

Now a days people don't put the extra fighting will to keep a realationship alive. No matter how bad things get or have gotten, we are humans and make little and big mistakes. Not perfect at all, even though we may think we are better than others, until we get taken down to give us a reality check. But overall, the fighting will is not there any more. God bless, you are still young you be fine in time.
