ive decided to give up on loving people..it usually makes me get hurt...if someone loves me first ok..ill take that risk..but im through having crushes and liking someone first!!!DONE
that is all

you shouldn't just stop believing in love because you've been hurt a few times. i mean they're just jerks, if they hurt you like that. forget them and move on. just because of some guy(s), you shouldn't stop having crushes and liking someone.
just be patient i guess, the right one will come along
but are you sure that's love not infactuation you've experienced?

^Well said.
Personally, I think you're being slightly over dramatic.
You're young. You have time to find love. Just chill out about it and as _sarcastic_ said the right one will come along.

couldnt have said it better myself.

No one ever gives up on love because it always comes back and you can't help it.

Thanks everyone...i guess i will not totally give up on love...but i just want a break right now...

^ I'm glad to hear that.

I just want to share something... It's very long but I hope it makes you feel better:

LOVE

It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel, and then regret.

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift.

Love is when you take the feelings; the passion and the romance in a relationship, and find out you still care for that person.

A sad thing in life is, you meet someone who mean a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be, and you just have to let go.

When the door of happiness closes, another opens. But often times, we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which had been opened to us.

The best kind of friend is the kind whom you can sit on the porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you have ever had.

It is true that we do not know what we have until we lose it, but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.

Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Do not accept love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart. But if it does not, be content that it grew in yours.

There are thing that you would love to hear, that you would never hear from the person whom you would like to hear them from, but do not be so deaf as not to hear it from the one who says it from his heart.

Never say goodbye if you still want to try. Never give up if you still feel you want to go on. Never say you do not love a person anymore if you cannot let go.

Love comes to those who still hope although they have been disappointed, to those who still believe although they have been betrayed, to those who still love although that have been hurt before.

It takes only a minute of time to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone. But it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

Do not go for looks; they can be deceiving. Do not go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who can make you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Hope you'll find someone to make you smile.

There are moments in life we miss someone so much, so much that you just want to pick them up from your dreams and hug them for real! Hope you dream that special someone.

Dream what you want to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be, because you have only one life and only one chance to do all the things you want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enoigh sorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy.

Always put yourself in other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person too. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck a life. A timely word may level stress. A loving word may heal and bless.

The beginning of love is to let those who you love just be themselves and not twist them with our own image, otherwise, we love only the reflection or ourselves we find in them.

The happiest people do not necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

Happiness is for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched and those who have trieed; for only they, can appreciate the importance of people who had touched their lives.

Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.

The brightest future will always be based on a learned past. You cannot go on in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.

When you were born, you were crying, and everyone around you is smiling. Live life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling, and everyone around you is crying.

You can take a break for awhile but you should get back on the horse.

My last boyfriend stalked me and I have a restraining order against him for aggravated harassment but I'm dating someone new. Hell, I started seeing this guy like a month after I broke up with my psycho ex. I hope the guys that have messed with you weren't anywhere as close to that bastard.

I had the same thoughts as u few months ago. That I would'nt love again..... & that no guy on this earth would love me.......

I refer it as being on a "break" now.......

Sure, there are the guys at my current Uni dropping hints & stuff.... i'm pretending not to take any notice of it since I don't want to be involved in a relationship at the moment. If so, I'd want it to be a meaningful one, not just a dramatic one that ends shortly.
I want a long term relationship. I'm waiting for the real Mr. Right to come along~

How do you expect to find "Mr. Right" if you don't give any relationships a chance?

thank you everyone....so so much...maybe i will decide to fall in love again..but as i said..im gonna wait a little...

Haha!! I contradicted myself!!! My bad! Thanks for pointing that out to me!


But yea.......
Few months ago, yup~ I told myself I would'nt love again & that no guy would ever want me.

Until I calmed down a bit & thought about what I had said before..... decided that I'll just be on a break in the meantime~ It'll be a while~


deus_ex_machina:
What u shared does made me feel better~ coz its so true~

i thought the same at one point. but then i thought to myself 'what kills you only makes you stronger'

what doesnt kill u actually, what kills u leaves u...

well
i mean
dead
right?

Lol that's kinda funny. My boyfriend's always said that love is giving someone the power to hurt you, but trusting them not to use it. You're probably just rushing into this sh*t.

its okay you can find true love. and i know how it feels because i have been in that same road. I went out with a guy to and he was a total jerk he wanted to break up with me on my birthday he was a stupid idiot and im glad he is not in my life. I didnt love him but it did hurt you know and you feel you cant trust guys no more. i thought about that for a couple of LONG time until i met my PERFECT guy and i love him! so jus dont give up and your still young and there are lots of fishes in the sea. =)

Wow..don`t give up..Take a break but come back..

Don`t let bad times ruin your life..

Never give up on love .. that is all I can say.

You seem very....young.

well, guys... i think shes ok... we are all like ganging up on her telling ehr not to give up... i think she just needs a break... let those wounds heal... you know. lol... i think its funny.. she wrote

yet we all keep sending in advice... i think she made the right choice... :P i guess you guys just care XD... oh well forget everything i said KEEP SENDING HER MESSAGES OF LOVE :D!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've seriously considering doing the same thing... to much heartbreak.

I think at this point. Perhaps you should put love aside, and enjoy the other things in life. You'll know when the time is right when you can no longer deny feelings.

Then why did you reply after she said that?

For the other people who are going to give up on love, why? Is it just because things didn't go your way? If you don't take risks, you're not going to get anywhere. You're going to be even more miserable if you avoid dating than if you get your heart broken.

well I love you.

but only as a friend, because we're not ready for a relationship

Ha, I agree with most of whats said here... I myself just got out of a relationship, but... I still love him, and we might even get back together one day... I just wasnt ready for the whole, commitment, thing.. But my ex, before this one, that one put me through the gutter, I didn't want another relationship... I dunno, I feel I'm going in circles with this, so I better end it before i confuse you anymore, haha.
