Treasa Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Since it's the weekend and weeekends make me extra sad, I've been thinking about all the things my ex used to say. Therefore I'm going to vent about his empty "promises" and the other stuff that was apparently untrue. The rest of you should feel free to also... 1. "I'm not going anywhere!" 2. We will always be in each other's lives." 3. "You're my future Mrs." 4. "There's no other woman out there like you, I know deep down you're perfect for me!" 5. "Let me be your rock." 6. "Someday when we have kids..." 7. "We met for a reason, this is fate." Remembering these words now is like a knife in my heart. I once heard the expression that you should go by people's actions, not their words. So maybe we should all take vows of silence since nobody tells the truth anymore. They may mean it at the time. But things change. Rather than doing what you suggested, why not assume that people generally intend nothing malicious, but also be strong enough to be ok if things don't work out and the promises don't hold? When you really are happy with yourself and your life, no one leaving you will be able to hurt you. I promise.
Am4Real Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 I think you're missing the point of many contributors in this thread. A majority of are saying these things were said to them days or weeks before they broke up. I seriously doubt that can be contributed to "change". It's more likely "heat of passion" bull**** talk. I suggest you filter it out and when you hear it the next go-around, simply smile in return. They may mean it at the time. But things change.
