To ask for some hope of falling in love?

[sadness66]

I’m fulfilled in every other way but get my heart broken over and over again. I’m having some therapy to see if there is a pattern that I’m repeating that I could break.

I’m 43 with children so don’t have the biological clock against me.

Please can you let me know if you thought that you would never find anyone, when you were at rock bottom like me and then things improved for you? I have always been so hopeful but the last week or so, after the worst heartbreak in years, I have felt like it might never happen to me.

To those who say you need to find your own fulfilment, I am fulfilled in every other way. A loving partner would be a lovely bonus. A relationship is important to me.

Bumping for you.

I'd like to see the replies too.

I had my heart broken a few years ago and it was a really awful time. I had lost my mum, I felt humiliated that my relationship had ended after everyone had known about it (asian culture) and I went through a really bad time. All my friends were settling down and everyone I was meeting was just a waste of time.

I stopped searching for love and gave myself that love. I’ve always believed there is someone out there for everyone and what is for someone, will truly find them. I guess I just needed to put that into practice.

Out of nowhere, when I wasn’t searching, I came across someone a few months ago. Man of my dreams.

It was my birthday yesterday, and he proposed to me with my dream ring.
