BlindRage Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Well I was reading another thread and it got me thinking. In it the OP was talking about how they were in a relationship and it didn't work out, and apparently, they were both in there teens during this relationship. A few of the responses were of older members talking about their experience while in their teens and how they weren't serious about relations. What is your views on teenage relations? Give advice to the young broken hearts out there.
D78 Posted February 5, 2011 Posted February 5, 2011 Okay I'll give it a shot. I'm 32 - does that count as an "older" member? The only advice I have is that it gets better. My first LTR was really pretty bad, but I was in love. We were together for a long time. When he cheated, I thought I would never trust again, and I would never find anyone else like him, etc. Each relationship since that has been better. I got stronger and smarter. I learned to communicate, even when it's hard. I learned to stick up for myself and end relationships that were bad for me. I figured out how to want him without needing him. I learned that both people in a relationship must commit to work on the relationship, or it will not last. I realized that sometimes your heart will get stomped on, even when you did all you could. Each break up has taught me more about myself and about who I want to be with. Each break up also seems to hurt more than the last, but I guess that goes hand in hand with each relationship being better than the last. If you give yourself time to heal from a broken heart, your next relationship will be better. You can't see it now, so you will just have to trust me. And, if it's not, you can punch me in the arm. You'll have to find me first
