Your first true love gets engaged...

[Black_Bird]

... and it isn't to you!

Yeah - I just learned about that peice of information... It hurt, but I wasn't going to let that ruin a night out. I have enough alcohol in me now to keep me from feeling *too* bad - but I'm sure that will change as I sober up. I really do, however, wish them the best.

When did you learn? How did you react?

They don't let men that have come out of the closet get married in New Zealand, so I should be safe until they change the laws, lol

Just got to bite the bullet and move on... wish them all the best and get on with your life

Good, BB! I think you'll stay fine too about the whole deal!

It never has happened to me, but I've seen others go through the pangs. Most remain friends though, especially after realizing they weren't going to "reunite" anyway!

All the best!

Oh - I knew I wasn't going to every "reunite" with her in anyway shape or form. I've been over that... it was just a shock. I kind of knew it was coming... He's the one guy that had been with her almost as long as I was.

I'll be fine... it was just the initial shock.

BB- I can understand how you feel.

A few years ago (3 this past January, to be exact), I had ended a very serious relationship with my live-in boyfriend of 5 years. Not even 6 months later, he moved in with someone else (a special education teacher who taught in the same school as him-very ironic, since I'm a spec ed teacher, and he only went into teaching because I did).

last April, he got married, and she is now pregnant.

Although I was the one who ended it with him, it hurt me that he was able to so easily just jump right back in where we left off; almost as if he had a certain criteria to fill when it came to who he wanted- I left, and she fit the criteria (probably better than I did), and so he took up with her.

Happened to me....a woman from Ohio actually did that to me about a year ago. Hard to figure women out, but regardless.....there is a reason for everything. Fate decides your course in life....not you. So play the cards you are dealt and make the best of it

I lived with a lover during college and we talked of marriage. He left and we did the "back and forth" BS for a bit. I moved on. We continued correspondence until I married. I found out, during December, that he had married and had his first child. It affected me. I cried. I felt guilty for feeling anything. My husband understood. It still feels weird.

When it happened to me, it was difficult initially even though I knew we would never be together .

Then, it seemed that his getting engaged help me to put closure on the whole thing. I was better able to move on with my life after that.
