why do we do this to ourselves?
| Wed, 03-14-2007 - 9:56pm |
I am very new to this message board and in reading all of the posts, I keep thinking to myself...WHY DO WE CONTINUE TO DO THIS TO OURSELVES? honestly....total honesty right here, right now.
i love my ex, i love him with ALL my heart even though i know that our relationship is toxic, even though he will never be the man I fell in love with, even though he does not want the same things as me, and even though he keeps telling me the same thing over and over "we aren't good together right now but maybe in a few months" Hello!!!! we were together for four years...how is now any worse than it was a few days ago...and I know that I am right there with all of you, the broken hearted, the lonely hearted, the ones that want answers to all that is left questioning...WHY?!?!?!
Why do we do this to ourselves when we know, even though we do NOT want to admit it, that life on the other side could be so much better if we just LET GO...and I know that letting go means that all of our dreams and hopes are left as a writing in the sand, but what about finding other hopes and dreams? we could do that if we just let go of what didn't work out. So why do we hang on? That is all I have been asking myself the past couple days, because even though i know there is something better out there waiting for me, maybe tomorrow or maybe five years from now, why do we hang onto relationships that make us question our self worth? Haven't we, as women, come further than that, than making a relationship with a man that has issues, validate ourselves?
