AloneinTexas Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 We just mutually broke up, though I had been the one to actually pull the plug. We kept arguing more and more as the relationship went on and just wore us out. She just put this quote up on her Facebook. Anyone care to tell me what it means? Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today
Cub Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 It means you should stop checking her Facebook page and move on. You'll get nowhere if you keep trying to interpret her every action.
Ronni_W Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today Possibly one's interpretation is going to depend on own life philosophy and experiences. My interpretation is along the lines of: "Make plans for the future but live in the 'now' and appreciate the present moment." How are you perceiving it?
EmperorR Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 Facebook is the devil, block her in facebook and move on.
Author AloneinTexas Posted December 4, 2008 Author Posted December 4, 2008 I just wanted to know what it meant in the context of us, since she hardly ever puts up a "status update" (this is what that was) She ended up taking a job far away and I had a few reservations about going though , for the most part, I was looking a jobs in her city and planning on going. Therefore what happened was that she ended up taking her dream job and lost me in the process. I dont know what she lost by being with me, she just lost me.
Ronni_W Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 I just wanted to know what it meant in the context of us, She's your ex -- her current and future stuff likely won't have you as part of her context. For you to want, or try, to put/see yourself in HER contexts is highly likely to only block your own healing and moving forward. (((hugs))) EDIT: She lived for today...and grabbed the chance to live her dream (job) in the 'now'. It's only about her and her own life philosophy.
Author AloneinTexas Posted December 4, 2008 Author Posted December 4, 2008 I kinda take it to mean that i kept telling her to relax with things and have fun and she kept worrying about the future. i never dated someone who brought up being in love, having kids and a house as much as this girl. i guess maybe she has regret that she didnt just relax. i dunno. or maybe there is an ex resurfacing showing her all sorts of love right now.
Enema Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 It's got nothing to do with you. Just means, "Dream big, but make the most of every day"
Trialbyfire Posted December 4, 2008 Posted December 4, 2008 It means you should stop checking her Facebook page and move on. You'll get nowhere if you keep trying to interpret her every action. Yes! Social network stalking will never help you move on.
