Forever Searching Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 Just a curious question for everyone. How many of you have a "one that got away?" or someone that you still compare future relationships to? Or, did you ever have someone in your life like that and what changed it? Thanks

Thanks Oh don't we all, sometimes we idealize relationships and of course other people to foster these feelings. Mine was "Amparo", what a name, beautiful girl with these huge hazel/brown eyes. She was everything I wanted to be, intelligent, very funny, level headed, and she had a way of making everyone feel like they were her good friend. She was my best friend and I miss her SO much. I've been meaning to call her but it just seems like there is never a proper time to do so..
Virginia Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 Yep,well he didnt get away,we were never fully together,we were great together,I love him more then I have ever loved any man,but it was complicated-I was actually with his brother (I was 14 at the time) and realitly is we would not have worked out,we wanted different things,it just would not have worked I lost my V to him,it was special,we had some beautiful moments that I will tresure forever,he now has his first girlfriend (single for the 8 years that we ended it) at first I was a little put out,but I love him so much that I can now honestly say I wish him nothing but happiness

Your right Mitch I think we all do and have " The one that got away " Mine was Andie but it happened a while ago so there isn't any calling gonna happen
Teag Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 I do, I still think of him often although I haven't seen him in about 6 years. We both moved away, I moved first about an hour away then a few months later he moved 3 states away. I'm not sure what ever happened to him but would love to find out.
lindya Posted August 4, 2005 Posted August 4, 2005 I can think of one relationship that, for as long as it was good, stood head and shoulders over any other I've had. I don't think of the guy I had that relationship with as being the one that got away, though. I think we were an important learning experience for eachother, but just not right for the long haul.
laRubiaBonita Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 i do not have a "One that got away"...................... But, i often hope that i am "That one" to my past romances.
Angelina1433 Posted August 5, 2005 Posted August 5, 2005 I actually dreamt of the one who got away last night. His name was James, and a doll - dreamy, an artist, intelligent, etc., etc. But he was just just my ideal guy, and we just weren't on the same level when it came to sharing values and future paths in life. We had fun for awhile, then it went kaput. I heard he's married now. Good for him, I say.
Rubber_Chicken Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 My the one got away recently. Well, Within the last 2 years anyhow. I do sometimes compare new dates to her. Not something I do on purpose. It just happens
RecordProducer Posted October 30, 2005 Posted October 30, 2005 How many of you have a "one that got away?" or someone that you still compare future relationships to? No one. However if I would lose my BF, I would always compare everyone to him. He is just so right for me, I adore him. I don't know if I could ever find anyone like him, that makes me feel so good around him.
AlmostMarried77 Posted October 31, 2005 Posted October 31, 2005 There was one girl who i spent a year wanting to ask out, then by the time i got the balls to do it she was seeing someone else Anyway - i'm now glad to say that my wife makes me glad that nothing happened with that other girl. And at the same time, that experience made me stronger and probably gave me the guts to progress things past the friends stage with my wife. So yeah there was one that got away, but it turned out that there was a bigger and better fish in the sea for me
