    Don't look at this as an ending, but as a beginning to something new. I know its hard but you need to see it this way.
    Can't say it better than this. I am truly sorry for your pain, but it is part of life, and it will go away. Don't try to hide from it; you have to experience it. It will fade, slowly at first, and then you'll wonder how it ever hurt at all. Trust me, it will get better. In the mean time, my heart goes out to you.

      Be gone by the time she gets back on Monday. Get a room at one of those weekly motel places until you find a new place to live.

      or

      You can stay living with her and CRINGE each time her new boyfriend calls or "visits".

      You gotta let her go... just like she did to you.

        Just know SpaceAce that somewhere out there right now there is a girl breaking up with her guy and she's your next love to be. You might not meet her tomorrow, you might not meet her this month, maybe not even this year. Hearts need time to heal and mend before they are ready to fall in love again.

        But your next love is out there, and the hands of destiny will guide her to you and you to her.

        As hard as it is, you have to let go. You have to know what was is no more and can never be again.

        Love has a beginning and unfortunately also an ending.

        Smile and cherish the memories. She can never take those from your heart. Those you can keep forever.

        Everything is meant to be and one day you'll look back and be able to understand why it had to be.
        Great post man.

          SpaceAce: congrats on taking the step to make connections with other people and let them know how you're feeling. Most guys have a harder time with breakups than most women because you don't have as many intimate friendships so no support network. Cultivating your friendships with other people will make getting through this LOTS easier. She is not the only partner you'll ever have, and she's not the only FRIEND you'll ever have, either.

          Here's a guy who has gone through a similar situation with his wife falling out of love with him (you have to read from the beginning to understand it):

              Having been through exactly the same thing as you and sexyclicks I'm not even going to give you placations because I know how little they meant to me and how they didn't make me feel any better. As hard as it is to believe right now, and again I speak from experience, your not alone, other people have gone through this and survived. You will too. Good luck and my thoughts are with you.

                What is there to be said? You are going through what most of us men have experienced. I have been there and I will not even say I know how you feel. Your hurt is your own and mine is mine.

                As the days progress and the reality sets in, you start to question yourself as to who what or where and WHY she didn't tell you before you moved.

                Every question has an answer - the best thing I did was use the shit I've been through from my childhood till I got into this industry as a strength - not as a weakness

                - because if you didn't experience so much hell in your childhood
                ( to toughen your heart ) this hurt would be unbearable.

                Listen, keep at this internet thing - it is the only future with a select few who know how to do this technical work.

                Then, all I can tell you is pay attention to your heart - YOU DID NOTHING WRONG TO DESERVE THIS therefore this will hold good fortune for you in the future - just stick with it.

                When it happened to me, I didn't quit and now I begin to see the benefits of not quitting.

                You will make it through this.

                      Well damn dude, I can say that I have been in your position, but it was not nearly for as long as that. I was with a girl for 3 years, yeah its not 10 but 3 years is plenty fall in love with someone. All I can say dude, is don't try so hard. It will be the hardest thing you will ever do, but dont show so much pain. But yes do as you have and let her know you are hurt. It is not to be manly. It is not to show you are tough. It is to show her that you can live your life without her, which you can. You dont feel that way now but you can. If you were meant to be, she will realize that he is not the man for her, and she will miss all the things she had with you.. Keep that hope, but do NOT thrive on it. You don't need to go out looking for a new girl right now, you can check shit out which will make you feel better, but you do not need a new girl at the moment. But let me tell you this.. There is another girl out there for you, you dont think that, you dont want that, but its the truth. There is another girl out there that you can find love with as strong as you did with Alana, maybe even more, you just haven't experienced that yet. You will be ok dude, trust me. It's gonna take time, its gonna be painful I wont lie to you.. But you WILL pull through.

                        Couples meet, fall in love, and rarely stay together forever. Most break up, drift apart, divorce, or OJ each other.


                        Such is life. [/B]
                        I've been in other short relationships. I've never believed any of them would last and I never really intended them to. Afte ten years, though, I allowed myself to feel secure in our togetherness. Perhaps most relationships do come to an end but it's hard when the one that you thought ould never end does.

                          my first true love I felt the same as you..
                          we parted and I at the same time lost my new son.
                          Life for me was Unbearable, but with time and alot
                          of crying and trying to figure out what went wrong I realized
                          it wasnt Just me. It was life. KRL was right, dont looka t this as an ending, but a new begining. Soon after my Loss I met my
                          wife and My life ( Thank god ) has been nothing but wonderful since. Cetainly we have bad days, but I thank god for her every day. I respect your honesty and wish you the Best in the future.
                          There will be a Brighter day and a New love, its takes time.

                                    Just be prepared for when she comes crawling back to you. And she will do this.
                                    It will be tough, but you need to tell her no.
                                    I've thought about this and told myself I could never have her back. After all, I exposed myself and poured out my heart and soul to her. I told her everything I felt and everything I hoped and wished for us. I told her that nothing was more important to me than our life together and fixing what was wrong and yet she still could not make the concession of giving me a little tie to show her how much I meant it.

                                    I told myself I won't take her back even if she wanted me to and a month ago I would have believed I was strong enough to stick to it. Now I am not so sure.

                                      Dude, let me tell ya. Something like this can fuck you up the rest of your life, don't let it. You can choose to react to this however you like, I know right now it doesnt seem that way. After dealing with this for a few days you need to let her go and don't blame yourself or take it personally. Whatever you do DO NOT beg her back, get obsessive, or act like an asshole to her, you will only push her away more and destroy your ego. Your attitude with her should be something like "I'm sorry you decided to choose the path you did, it makes me sad but if thats what you really want then I wish you the best, will always love you" and stick to that and don't dwell on what you lost, rather be thankful for the experience. She will respect you and most likely eventually come back, if not at least your heads in the right place and you can move on and be healthy for the next woman.

                                        First off all I must say that I am truely sorry to hear about what you are going through right now. This is the first occasion in a long time that I feel my english isn´t sufficient to express what I wanna tell.

                                        Well, most of us will have experienced something like that.

                                        What happened to you is only natural. Most highschool sweethearts break up at some time. Imagine you two would have been plants. You met each other when you were rather young. You were attached to each other and grew towards the direction of the sun.
                                        The problem here is that for every human being there is a different sun. Not everybody is the same and different things make us "click". So we grow into lots of different directions.

                                        That said. Don´t let yourself get bitter about it. I am absolutely sure that she didn´t want to betray and belie you.

                                        Perhaps she felt way to responsible for both of you. There was not enough room for her to develop the way she wanted.

                                        At this point in life this may be Your chance to grow up and become a Man.

                                        Take responsibility for your actions! For your failures and for your successes!

                                        What shocked me the most within your post is that you blame your life on other people and "Circumstances" way too much.


                                        One day you might be able to see that tihis wasn´t the worst day in your life because it gave you a whole bunch of new opportunites. And these opportunites are not limited to the variety of girls waiting for you

                                        Let your mind grow, work with it . Learn to understand yourself better and learn to understand women better.

                                        Get to know, who you really are - without the adition of any other person.

                                        I would´ve sent you a PM with some Links and reading tips but this function is disabled. I won´t post them on an overcrowded board like this.

                                        Have a good look into NLP "NeuroLinguistic Programming", but don´t let yourself get fooled by any "gurus". Just work and play with your mind and get rid of the attachement to her.

                                        If you feel solid enough to go on the prowl again make sure you that know what you want and that you get it.

                                        Built yourself a system on how to pick up girls and how to judge them...

                                        You don´t have to take the first best skanky bitch of the corner - (only If you feel like that- to get it over with)
                                        Eventually you´ll meet a lady again that is worthy of a man like you who can develop feelings as deep as you showed us here.

                                        All the best to you. Enjoy the summer it´ll be great!

                                          This wont be helpfull at all, maybe, to you, but i rely too much on music to get some empathy or maybe somehow say to myself "i aint the only one going through the same thing!"

                                          Descendents - She Don´t Care

                                          I get up every morning
                                          And make a coffee like I've always done
                                          She won't look in my eyes
                                          What has our love become?

                                          Try talking about it
                                          (We talked about it)
                                          We talk around it
                                          And never get nowhere
                                          I gave her everything I got..

                                          And she don't care

                                          She don't care...
                                          No she don't!

                                          Ten years before
                                          I recognized the sacrifice she made to be with me
                                          Said "when you want to you can leave"

                                          It's easy to make promises
                                          While you're dumb in love
                                          Watch them all evaporate
                                          Because she's had enough

                                          Try talking about it
                                          (We talked about it)
                                          Talk around it
                                          And never get nowhere

                                          I gave her everything I got...

                                          She made her mind
                                          I lost my wife, my lover, my best friend
                                          And I don't think I'll ever be right again

                                          It's easy to make promises
                                          While you're dumb in love
                                          Watch them all evaporate
                                          Because she's had enough

                                          Try talking about it

                                          And I'm lonelier than you know...

                                          She don't care..

I hope she realizes what she has lost. Your story truly broke my heart, and I hope you only the best while you work your way through it.
                                            Thank you very much. I didn't set out to break anyone's heart but it makes me feel better that someone was able to feel and understand what I wrote.

                                                      Usually when a girl leaves you. Someone you've been in a relationship for a very long time leaves you its because the bad outweighs the good. It means she wasn't happy. Even though you had your good times there were times when she wasn't happy. Its just reached a point where she couldn't take it anymore...

                                                      This other man. She's probably just using him as a reason to breakup with you. Its her way of rationalizing the breakup.
                                                      I considered all of that and she and I talked about it. The thing is, the reasons she had for wanting to leave were all things that were easily dealt with if only she would have told me about them. There are no uncrossable chasms between us. Neither one of us (from what I understand) woke up every morning thinking how unhappy we were to be together and neither one of us was sick of the other person. Almost everything that was wrong between us was a misunderstanding. She told me she thought I had gotten bored with her. To me, that's absolutely ridiculous. If she had ever told me, "I feel like you're bored with me," I could have shown her different. She thought I didn't want to be married to her but that is not even close to the truth. I always felt comitted to her and believed she was comitted to me. To me, marriage was something we would do when we got around to it but as far as I was concerned, we were husband and wife. I wasn't going anywhere. If she had told me, "I feel like you don't really want to be with me forever," or, "I know you're committed but marriage is very imortant to me," we would have been married, already. There were a lot of things like that that were WAY more important to her than she let on. She never mentioned marriage more than casually and she didn't make much of an issue out of anything else that bothered her, either, until everything became so important that she wanted out.

                                                      I really had no reasonable clues about most of it. She is usually so transparent to me that I can tell you exactly what she's thinking or feeling at any given moment but these things that were so close to her heart she kept hidden.

                                                        Yes, I keep telling myself that but right now every minute without her is dragging by like a month.

                                                          Wow, how fitting.

                                                          Ten Years Gone - Zeppelin


                                                          Then as it was, then again it will be
                                                          An' though the course may change sometimes
                                                          Rivers always reach the sea
                                                          Blind stars of fortune, each have several rays
                                                          On the wings of maybe, down in birds of prey
                                                          Kind of makes me feel sometimes, didn't have to grow
                                                          But as the eagle leaves the nest, it's got so far to go

                                                          Changes fill my time, baby, that's alright with me
                                                          In the midst I think of you, and how it used to be

                                                          Did you ever really need somebody, And really need 'em bad
                                                          Did you ever really want somebody, The best love you ever had
                                                          Do you ever remember me, baby, did it feel so good
                                                          'Cause it was just the first time, And you knew you would

                                                          Through the eyes an' I sparkle, Senses growing keen
                                                          Taste your love along the way, See your feathers preen
                                                          Kind of makes makes me feel sometimes, Didn't have to grow
                                                          We are eagles of one nest, The nest is in our soul

                                                          Vixen in my dreams, with great surprise to me
                                                          Never thought I'd see your face the way it used to be
                                                          Oh darlin', oh darlin'

                                                          I'm never gonna leave you. I never gonna leave
                                                          Holdin' on, ten years gone
                                                          Ten years gone, holdin' on, ten years gone


                                                          Either that or


                                                          You don't know how much I need you.
                                                          While you're around I don't feel blue.
                                                          And when we kiss I know that you need me too.
                                                          I can't believe I found a love that's so pure and true.

                                                          But it all was bullshit.
                                                          It was a goddam joke.
                                                          And when I think of you and I,
                                                          I hope you fucking choke.

                                                          I hope you're glad with what you've done to me.
                                                          I lay in bed all day long feeling melancholy.
                                                          You left me here all alone, tears running constantly.

                                                          Oh somebody kill me please,
                                                          somebody kill me plee-ase,
                                                          I'm on my knees,
                                                          pretty pretty please kill me.

                                                          I want to die.
                                                          Put a bullet in my head.

That being said, I've learned the hard way to never make a decision in the heat of the moment. Always follow your heart and you will never be disappointed. Let life unfold as it should - we can only control what we can control - nothing more...

                                                            Good luck bro, I truly hope everything works out for you!

                                                            Thanks for the well-wishes. All my heart wants is to fix what I had done wrong but I will not get that chance and that's what's so hard. Losing her is bad enough but fifty times worse is losing her when I so desperately want to fix what was wrong now that I know what it was. The burden of knowing that I made mistakes that now I can never fix makes this all much worse.

Either they're fucking obsessed with you to the point you can't breathe or they could care less about you and love to torture you. There's no middle ground. I'm sure other people have had different experiences, but it seems to me that when you don't really care about a woman she'll fall terminally in love with you and turn into a psycho jealous bitch. If you really care she'll sense that and know she can get away with anything and your life will be hell until she finally loses interest and leaves you for the surfer across the street.

                                                                    Another woman is the best way to get over the old woman. Don't allow yourself to sit around and get metaphysical, TRY to get out and find a new one. If you can't hook up a new one then the emotions from this one will fester and fuck you up.
                                                                    I don't think all women are so bad. I don't think Alana is a bad person but I think she made bad choices. Instead of telling me what she was feeling, she let it build up until it boiled over. Part of what makes this so hard is that she really is such a good woman. She is better than I deserve and I wish I hadn't screwed things up.

                                                                    I guess eventually I will feel like I want another woman but right now all I want is the lover I can't have.

                                                                          Dig, you've been dating the wrong women, apparently. I know several women who are neither obsessively clingy or totally uncaring. There is a middle ground if you find a sane woman.
                                                                          I've been hurt before but I have never been hurt by someone who was so deeply a part of my life. I do not believe it is possible to be closer to anyone than I was to Alana. She was the first thing I thought of in the morning and the last thing I thought of before bed. Everything between us collapsed in the course of a week. This guy came to town, she was smitten, all these issues that she never let on about came to the surface and I was buried under it all, unable to do anything.

                                                                              Hang in there though .. There is life after love. It's just going to take you some time to get there.

                                                                                      Smile and cherish the memories. She can never take those from your heart. Those you can keep forever.

                                                                                      Everything is meant to be and one day you'll look back and be able to understand why it had to be.
                                                                                      Thanks, KRL, although I don't necessarily believe that love always has to end. I do believe that two people can be together for their entire lives and be happy. I would have been happy to be with Alana forever. Ten years together didn't diminish that feeling in me and I believe that she would have continued to feel that way as well if she had been able to express to me the things that were hurting her before we reached this point. She keeps professing to love me but it's not enough.

                                                                                      The memories are the most paainful thing of all. I remember things like her sneaking food out of her school's cafateria then riding the bus for an hour or more just to bring me a cold cafateria hamburger. I remember her sleeping next to me in my car, enduring cold which she hates, and then taking the long bus ride to school in the morning without enough sleep just so I wouldn't have to be alone. I remember her as a teenager, a very poor swimmer, shivering in my arms while I held her at the end of the pier and waves crashed over us. I felt strong and useful and needed then but now that is all gone.

Right now you feel like nobody can understand your pain, but a lot of people have been through this, including myself. I never saw it coming either. I spent countless nights thinking what went wrong and how things could have been different. But at the end nobody can help you except yourself. Stay focused, stay strong. Don't hate her for what she did. Don't hate yourslef for what happened. Maybe it was meant to be this way. I hope you find your way fast. Because you WILL find your way sooner or later. And one day you will look back and remember the good parts and the beautiful memories.

                                                                                              Don't look at this as an ending, but as a beginning to something new. I know its hard but you need to see it this way.

                                                                                              Alana was my focus. I'm motivated mostly by comfort. I just want to have enough to get by and be comfortable. All of my higher goals and my desires to have more than I have now were because I wanted her to have those things. She was my focus and my reason for wanting to do things.

I once had a nightmare similar to your story. While horrible, it was only a nightmare. I can't really offer words of encouragement other than you're going to have to take each day at a time, and focus on the fact that it was not a result of your actions. My only other advice is to try to emerse yourself in work, and get near some friends or family as soon as possible. It's not a time to be alone.

Give it time!!!!! sounds like BS right now, but after some time passes, you will be okay. you probably will always love her; 10 yrs is a lot to throw away.

                                                                                                  I wish you nothing but the best!!

I am completely loyal to the few friends I make and the people I love. Aside from my feelings for Alana, there is nothing more important to me than loyalty and trustworthiness. I cannot imagine betraying a lover's trust by cheating on her or lying to her. I hope she's happy wherever she ends up. I don't want her to find out how many assholes there really are out there because she is sweet girl and doesn't deserve mistreatment.

But, if it's any consolation and you can forgive the cliche, time does heal all wounds and it WILL make you a better person..trust me.
