Do you believe in “happily ever after”?

Question

I am having a hard time letting myself be happy because I don’t believe in ‘happily ever after’ anymore. I really thought my recent relationship was going to last forever but we still broke up, which I found very tough especially since it ended very abruptly and bitterly. I am well over my ex now but I promised myself that I didn’t want to get into anything serious for a long time.

I have recently met an amazing guy who went through the same type of break up as me, we get along great, I find him very attractive, funny, brilliant company and he seems very reliable. The problem is all I can think about is going through the whole relationship thing again and it scares me so much. I know I’m going to let a great thing go but I just can’t help feeling like this…what am I to do?

Answer 1

well, life its to short, soo try to enjoy it as much as possible !

Answer 2

I absolutely, positively DO believe in happily ever after.  I went through feeling the same feelings with my bf, he had also been stomped on by a past gf.  The further our relationship has gone, the better it has gotten.  We have a few issues but no major ones.  He won't cheat on me and I won't cheat on him.  I can trust him completely, and if we have problems we find a way to get through it.  It is truly amazing and I wouldn't give him up for the world.  

Don't be afraid of love.  Even if you get hurt, you will still feel emotions stronger than no other.  And it feels great to be the one that your friends are jealous of, and to have a truly honest committed relationship.  Your joy will help them to find it too.  Give this amazing guy your heart, you deserve this for yourself.    

Answer 3

nope.  

Answer 4

No.

Problems will always occur.

Answer 5

You are not doing anything wrong these are normal feelings. You need to still take things slow but also do not hold him responsible for things that went wrong in your last relationship. You cannot help when you fall in love so do not refuse to let someone else in because you are scared. Just give it time and there is really no problem at all.

Answer 6

No I don't.

I guess you have to decide if you want to take the risk of getting involved with somebody again or not. Might be fun at the time, even if that ends too.

Answer 11

Living ,``happily`` ever after is a myth, you have to realize that two people have two points of view, two diffrerent appetites, two different everything. The way to be ``happy`` is to give up your personality, and agree with the other person all the time, which you are not going to do. It`s a game of give and take, and it lasts forever I`m not sating that you will never have happy times, just remember, that is not all there is to a life together.

Answer 12

no but i do think that you should try to be happy and not let the past get you down and leave to the future.

to ask yourself what could have been.
