this probably belongs in the relationship/dating forum but i'm not looking for pity or advice, just wondering if a significant person in your life has given up on you? where they said "I can't do this anymore," or "I can't be your friend anymore," for whatever reason. My girlfriend of two years recently told me these words and she blamed everything on me...for moving away even though I had no other choice. Frikin screwy man. frikin screwy.

what about you? ever feel abandoned?

Dozens of them have given up on me, always at the point where they finally accept that I will not allow them to change me into "somebody's dad."

Abandoned? Yeah, I suppose I've felt that way most of my life, but it's OK. In the end, I've learned it's better to be alone than to be with someone who makes you WISH you were alone.

Can't say anyone has ever given up on me, but I had to cut off all contact with my exs so I could heal because they were constantly trying to manipulate my emotions!

Abandoned...oh yes I know that feeling all too well...add being left in a lion's den of vile and toxic people on top of that! It really sucked at the time, but I am stronger for all my trials!

Just don't give up on yourself flowerforyou

Exactly. Whatever else happens, you have to maintain faith in yourself.

I've come to understand that I will never meet anyone who would value me over booze and babies, and I'm OK with that. As long as I have my writing, I can manage.

I know how you feel Lex! I always came after the booze, drugs, & crazy Mamma...luckily I was not able to have babies and didn't have to drag any children through the crap with me. I have critters & science to fill that void. I don't understand the mentality people have with relationships so I will avoid them for now & just be happy!

People never give up on me. They do loose interest in me, and can stop talking to me for years. But they never forget me.

I on the other hand do give up on them.

If they think they can just stop talking to me for years and never visit. I just think screw them! lol
