There are hundreads if not thousands of the opposite sex in the ocean, but why does one particular one continue getting caught on your fishing pole? Is it Love...Is it coincidence...or is it just because we as people are afraid to throw our poles a little bit farther? Scared to maintain the correct posture, position and format in our shot just because the last couple did not fall in our favor? Or is it because we are terrified of the slightest thought of trying something new?
Maybe it is something in the back of our minds that say "we ourselves are not perfect, nor will we ever be" We too have put the other person through heartaches as well. Forgiving them in a sense would be a way of saying they are forgiving you. A clean slate..
But is there such a thing as a clean slate? In the back of your mind you are wondering does that situation still replay in the other persons mind, a slight mistrust starts to creep in and settle, and just like roaches, when it settles it is hard as hell for them to completely be terminated. The "T" word always arises in these particular situations...Try
So...the question lies.. When does One Completely Give Up on Trying?

Report AbuseWhat a great question. I have been thinking about this all day. Someone I am dating for the third time has been lying to me big time. He does not know that I know and I am not sure how to handle this. We were talking about trust the other day and how important it is. I realize now it was a one sided conversation.
I just him last night and was thinking how much I am caring for this person again and now this. There was no prior cheating in our relationship but then again, who really knows.

Report AbuseI think that person is giving up on the chance to be hurt or the chance to hurt others. You never really want to hurt anyone, your just trying to find the one meant 4 you.I think people give up but deep down they are still waiting and wanting to be with someone.

Report AbuseBeing in that position now myself ,Danielle has the right idea . You never really give up ,You just lose belief and sight of the good side of companionship. Life takes a completely different road but a good one for me because I am realizing more of who I really am .

Report AbuseAre you asking when does one finally give up on that one person that you can't shake? When someone keeps popping up in your life and you have feelings for them I don't think you ever really give up. I think you may get tired of them coming in and out of your life so you make a brave decision to let them go and move on for the sake of being happy. I guess once the excitement of missing them dissappears and you start to feel heartbroken that they are not in you life then thats when you stop trying and start focussing on you and your happiness.
My friend is going through this right now and everytime she tells him bye I can tell her heart breaks all over again.

Report AbuseWhat a great question! I'm going though this now, I let him go once and then he appeared in my life again, and I just can't let him go again...I don't believe in coincidences, I know he's THE ONE...I just hope both of us have enough faith...

Report Abusethis is what my father is going through... the same woman keeps coming back into his life over and over and keeps leaving him.... he wants to be happy and he trys to forget her then one day she shows up again and he falls right back into the same trap.. my sister just thinks hes being stupid but i think hes just looking for happiness in all the wrong places... he wants it took work but i wish he would just let her go but hes afraid to look further out there he thinks she is the key to his happiness.. well she just came back recently and moved in with him then two days later she moved out because he would buy her a computer cuz he didn't have the money too... now he just wants to give up all together cuz he thinks he'll never be able to find any one else.... i wish he could see how great of person he really is and he deserves much better hopefully he'll find that special someone one day

Report Abusei feel if you truly find true love, stick with it. if after you both move on and keep ending up back up with each other, stop fishing. you only find true love once. trust me i've looked and there's only one man i'll ever love.
