muzik_lvr Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 (edited) I don't know if this has been posted already (sorry if it has), but if not, watch this video! A friend sent it to me today, and I thought it was very good, humorous, and insightful. I found that it had many similarities to my own relationship/break-up experience. I am sure the story in this video is similar to the majority of people's relationships on this message board. I hope some of you find it to be helpful. Edited April 23, 2011 by muzik_lvr

For my part, I never became indifferent or took her for granted. For me, nothing had changed. My feelings were always steadfast.

JasonRules Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 i know what u mean... i think the 2 serious boyfriends that I had never ever took me for granted but I did ..... But human nature dictates that we never appreciate what we have for certain...
Hopeless Girl Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 But human nature dictates that we never appreciate what we have for certain... yea i know what mean... but Ive always been lucky that the only 2 serious boyfriends i had were the greates guys in the world.. the good guy types u never get to meet around much ... and the last one the one im in LS for is also that type .. i just hope he realizes after therapy and maybe we can start again
loverboy1984 Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 I got a little emotional watching that. The thing he said at the end was very nice. Its funny how this is like the circle of life. Let stage 1 begin.
ganbare Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Interesting but I'm with JasonRules. My relationship like in the film lasted for a 1 1/2 as well but it never got to the "comfort" stage and I never took her for granted either. She cheated on me and I was devastated. This film doesn't help me at all.
ilovedhim Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Why does there have to be only 2 possible endings breakup or get married? Yes, w[sIZE=2]hen there's no destination it's easy to get lost. But why does it have to be marriage? Why not enjoy eahcother and let things be... think about it we don't give our friends ultimatums. We just are. [/sIZE]
trippi1432 Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 Very good video...there are no guarantees with any relationship, but each one leaves us with something good once we get over the initial heartbreak, hurt and sometimes even anger. My first ex cheated on me....but there were other good things about our relationship that I carry instead of focusing on the bad. I still look for those in my recent divorce....hard to find, but looking for them. If nothing else, I know that I have many good things to be thankful for in my last relationship...I take those and move on knowing that if it was something more, people would still be together.
shocked_confused Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 That video made me cry a little for the first time in months. That's almost exactly how our relationship was, except we were together 5.5 years. Didn't break up for a specific reason (like cheating), we just took each other for granted and things got old. Those stages are so true where he and I were concerned. Really sad how it just ends.

I think ultimately if we learn something from each relationship we become a better person. I always only take the good things I learned from each relationship and discard all the negativity and the bad things which happened.
Author muzik_lvr Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 That video made me cry a little for the first time in months.

Those stages are so true where he and I were concerned. Really sad how it just ends. Yeah, I agree that the stages are very common in most relationships. I believe my ex-gf and I got to the comfort stage in my relationship, but it didn't end in a mutual breakup as she was the one who pretty much left out of nowhere when I still had strong feelings for her. If anything, the video shows me things to watch out for in my next relationship in order to hopefully make it last.
poorguy Posted April 24, 2011 Posted April 24, 2011 That video is right on lol... I think that's how it always goes. I hope they do a follow up with her new guy. The guy on the video was a nice guy...just got comfy I suppose. Maybe the new dude will turn out to be a complete prick and then she'll realize what she had? I mean both guys run
