Is it normal after a break up that you feel like you made a mistake, and maybe you are not going to find someone else? (even if the relationship was messed up)

are you able to totally forget someone and find a new one? if true, -what about people who get old and dont forget their lover, do they regret to let them go for the entire life?

 

(sorry for my english) I really want your opinions.

I think it is normal to feeli like you've made a mistake, you remember the good times etc. Did you break up with him/her.

I have never been able to dump anyone even when its been obvious its not working and i am desperatly unhappy, each time i have been dumped they have always wanted me back at some point.

The only time i left someone was my husband and thats because I had hurt him so much i couldnt bear the thought of one day doing it again and i didnt feel like I deserved him as he is the most wonderful man. I didnt regret leaving because i knew it wouldnt have worked out in the long run.

yes, I guess it is. But sometimes you just now you made the right thing. So, i guess I have to let it go now

Actually, I do think that people have regrets and have made mistakes in breaking up. There are numerous posts on this site of people that have broken up and wished that they had handled things differently.

 

I am in my 50's and have just broken up with the 'love of my life'. I think that I am entitled (at my age) to address the relationship as such, because I can look back on life and make a true evaluation of how important he was to me against other relationships.

 

It took me 50 yrs to find him. Will I meet someone else? possibly

Will he be the love of my life? probably not

 

So yes, I do think people make mistakes and break up for the wrong reasons and I do think my X made a mistake by letting me go but obviously he didn't feel the same.

But that feeling of regret goes away?

I can't say from experience but I think you'll find that feeling of regret will dissipate but never completely go away. meaning you'll be able to go through every day life without feeling regret until something triggers a memory.

 

I think this applies more to those that have separated from someone that you truly loved.
