So people really think we have an agenda? May 14, 2019 at 07:14AM

“In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.” -Rumi So, my boyfriend and I have been doing long-distance for a while now! We are so very fortunate and try to see each other once a month (we are 4 and a half hours away but are both extremely busy due to work and our specific majors). When we do see each other, we make a point to exchange hand-written letters. One time, I wrote this quote to describe the love I felt for him. I find that it’s so hard to write about “love” as a concept because what I feel for him seems so much stronger than that. I feel this quote about him. I wrote in the letter “I quote you” and now we use it as a little joke and it makes my day infinitely brighter when we do those little things. All gushing aside though, this quote is lovely, as well as all of Rumi’s other works. Submitted May 13, 2019 at 07:15AM “In your light I learn ...

You told me we were supposed to last forever. I can’t help but wonder where it all went wrong. I can’t go the day without thinking of your beautiful face and hearing your voice in my head. I love you, and I’ll always love you. Your words can make the worst day take a full 180° turn. You take care of me, I take care of you. That’s all gone now and all I have is the memory of your face, and the faint sound of your voice in my dreams. However everywhere I look reminds me of you, and when the people I see say “hey where is she?” I almost break down. I’ve stopped telling people we aren’t together to spare myself the tears. I usually just brush them off and tell them you’re at work or at school. I thought I wanted you in my life but it turns out I was wrong. I needed you in my life. I just hope that someday when the dust settles and we mature a little, that you’ll still have a place in your heart for my soul, and a spot on your hand for my ring. I’d save you a spot in my heart, but it’s all...

Background: I like this girl very much. She had a very rough past where her ex cheated on her on numerous occasions. Present: After our 3rd date, she suddenly acted cold. So upon being direct to her about it, she tells me that she still has feelings for her ex and if given a chance she'd go back. This broke me a little I didn't let it phase me a bit in front of her because I knew what I signed up for and tried to support her through it. But anything I say wasn't making any difference for her. Also, she didn't used to answer my message promptly as before. So, I sensed that she'd want some space to deal it of her own but whenever she texted me I replied it as I used to before. Today, she messaged me, "why had I stopped talking to her?". To which I replied being direct with her. I said I wanted to give her some space to deal with her issues and I will always there for her. She read the message but didn't replied anything. My anxiety tells me this is ...

I think I’m about a point of self reflection and with the battle scars of love that truly make me realize there maybe not be that someone out there for me . For starters at my age of soon to be 38 I’m nowhere near your average person at my age I don’t own anything not a car nor house . I have a job that I love but for me I’m at a good as it gets place in it . My interest are absolutely not appealing to people my age video games ,horror, painting edgy things , comics and stuff of fantasy ,etc I would describe my looks as unimpressive but not terrible but with the fact that I’ve horrible teeth brings me to not horrible but ok . I’m a single father who feels like I’ve failed my son due to heavy spoiling due to guilt of his mother never being involved . I realize all of this will and has made almost all woman run. I do have a good sense of humor about life and all these things and despite all of this my black little heart still yearns for love ,still holds such a deep need for another whe...

I just found this subreddit after doing a search for people who feel like I do, because I can't ever stop thinking about you when you're not near me, and I never want to be away from you. My heart is so full of admiration and love for you, I am so very happy you've come into my life, I feel like everything has just come into place since we met, I have no concerns or worries, just a deep appreciation for what we have. I still get lost for words sometimes when you look at me. Your beautiful dark hazel eyes make me freeze up, and my heart seems to stop. I love the way you speak, the way you laugh, your dark brown hair, your short beard that frames your gorgeous face and your sexy, perfect body. I love that you can express how you feel and what you believe and you're not afraid to voice it. I love that you can be yourself around me and I can do the same. You're so smart and talented and you're good at everything you do. I am the luckiest girl in the world, I am ...

In these last 4 years I've been through 3 major heartbreaks, I had my last one a couple of days ago, I'm having a hard time figuring out if I'm really unlucky or I just suck as person, I thought I nailed it this time... turns out I was wrong, I just wanna stop existing, it hurts so fucking bad, all I wanted to live a real fairy tale with a cute, shy, funny, nerdy and sweet girl but I knew that was too much to ask, fuck this, honestly I feel terrible, I'll go back to feeling that deep lonelyness that I did not miss one bit, it's clear to me now, I only feel truly happy when I have someone that I love by side always, otherwise I just feel incomplete and lonely, I really didn't wanna get back to it... I just wanna cry and scream, I hate this... I just want it to go away and I just wanted to find real love...
