"Do you think you will love again or has a past relationship scarred you for life?"
Love is not the Question
I'd say it's easier to love than to trust someone,
Now could I see myself fully trusting someone again,
Doubt it |

Makes you think twice about Acutally wanting love as the break up the 1st time puts doubts about going through this again if it ever did. That's my opinion |

If I had answered this 11 months ago, I would have said and meant it! That I'm very happy being single thank you very much and no intentions whatsoever to be in any kind of relationship.
But them an amazing man walked into my life and made me feel so loved a special.  |

Is that through choice?"
When I sit and look back I’ll answer yes! As I’ve had opportunity but I won’t Just settle, I don’t NEED anyone as such. I just don’t meet anyone I connect on same level with enough to invest in my life. Harder as you grow older , but I’m not willing to just settle for the sake of it. I have my moments when I think “ oh fook it your too fussy etc “. |

I have never been scarred by previous relationships.
I'm not saying they were all good all the time, in fact they had their drama but I am just fine about them. I am on good terms with those that have really mattered to me in my life |

I cant see it happening anytime soon. Although none of us know what the future holds.
There is no doubt about it past hurts do leave a nasty old scar.

Emotions aren’t a choice, what we do with them are. "
Technically, yes. In reality that would take a fuck load of self control and coldness..... |

I'd love to be truly loved by a man, as its something I've not experienced since I was a teenager. I've had relationships but not once since have I ever genuinely felt like he loved me. |

I haven't been scarred by any previous relationships, but I just don't want to be in another one at this point in my life.
I'll never say never, but at the moment it would take someone very special to stop me enjoying the single life |

I don't think that I'll ever allow myself to love again. I can have passion, though love - too terrifying. I always fall for the wrong people   |

I’m hopeful. Always hopeful.
But realistically my life is not straightforward due to family commitments and i can’t see a fella willing to take it all on at this age, which saddens me a bit so i don’t dwell on it.

Think of it as nitches on one heart not on a bed post. (hang in there I will explain). You share emotional cognitive connections linked to ones memories, nostalgia one could say, it is the positive memories we hold and if we are a Sound reflective mood maybe the negative ones to with positive light. Yes they hurt at it drives us, it defines or behaviour and who we are.
Or maybe ruminating on nostalgic times part because I am a man apparently it takes bloody longer to get over it and I should take a psychology course.
Maybe Although you don't love them romantically there are times ones find yourself longing to past.

It does make you numb I agree.
However, you can learn to shut that away so you can enjoy moments of happiness, joy and even passion at times |

True Love.
If it happens with the wrong person it can damage you forever!
Should come with a warning like the ciggy packets.
Then that don't stop smokers from smoking.
Keep trying I guess ... |

"Love someone, hmm I don't know. But I won't live with anyone again."
Same for me.
I doubt I will live with anyone again - but if love happens then I wont fight it.
I've been single for so long now that I doubt it will happen - I'm OK with being alone. |

An ex single here.
I had no plans for a relationship, I didn't want one. My ex wife saw to that the way she hurt me and tore my world apart. I was completely broken, unsure of myself and my sense of reality. Didn't know if I'd trust again. My heart was full of darkness and cynicism when it come to relationships.
But then I started a fresh, to find my self again. Darkness and cynicism is not me. I started on here. As the cookie crumbled I met someone. I thought she was hot and I loved our conversation. So we met both with the intention of a bit of NSA fun. But by the end of that day with her I knew then something bigger was at play here. I started feeling things I'd not felt for some time. I spent a good period trying to repress those feelings and stay with the program, but it was no use (turns out she was trying to do the same). Now I couldn't imagine life without her. We have something together better than I could have ever of imagined. We are now engaged and we are unstoppable, I had no doubt of that.
But I'm not bitter about the past. If it wasn't for the past I wouldn't have what I have now. |

As things stand I've no interest in a relationship at all and could quite happily stay single. I think the trust element is the hardest part to surmount
Never say never of course but at the moment I dont see what I'd gain that I actually want above what I have now. I feel a bit sad saying that but that is the reality. |

I look forward to that first meet, the way I stare into his eyes and drown, Is it love or lust? who knows what I am feeling but the journey is what makes it worth it, people come and people go they all add to my life and I have fond memories and life experiences to draw on and the knowledge that one day I will take a hand in mine and never want to let go... |

I've not really had a bad relationship to be honest, I'm single (26 years) more because I'm wired that way rather than I don't love, can't love or am not loved ... just rather unable to make emotional attachments.
If I actually met a chap that became more than a proper FWB then I'd happily have a relationship, it would be a miracle/adventure that everyone around me (& me) would love.
But I'm very happy and contented to carry on single forever! Last child just about to fly the nest and wonderful adventures on the horizon ... |

I’ve been single for nearly 10 years after a really bad ending to a 20 year marriage. I’m not looking for love but I’d like to think it’s possible and could be in my future. I’m happy being single but it feels a bit sad if I think I may never love again or be loved. It would take a very special connection and person though for me to give my heart away. |

"Do you think you will love again or has a past relationship scarred you for life?"
My scars run very deep, but yes I could love again.
I have people in my life who are very precious to me, people I care about and love dearly.
But falling in love with someone, that's totally different, and not something I'm sure I could allow to happen again.
That kind of love hurts, it nearly destroyed me once, It took me a long time to rebuild my life, I'm not prepared to go through that again. |

Probably not, simply because I find it impossible to trust and you can't have love without trust for me.
Happy as I am for now - have sex that I enjoy with people I trust. |

I've thought this quite a lot recently.
Yes, I've been hurt and it's been a tough couple of years but I'd hate to let past experiences and other people's actions stop me from being truly happy with someone else in the future.
Perhaps I'm just stubborn and refuse to give in to the shite!
As for the question of will it? I don't know, I'm open to it happening, or rather, I will be if it happens. |

Wouldn't consider myself scarred by love in any way; nothing but fondness for my exes and I hope they are doing great...
But at the same time: nearly 10 years single, wonderful people in my life and a constant motivation to grow and learn. Love in a traditional sense is no real priority, really. |

I have been deeply scarred by past relationships. That's the main reason I started on fab was to have fun, without the relationship . I didn't see me ever getting close to another man, never being able to trust again. However earlier this year a special fella that I met on here changed my attitude.
Taking things slowly and no plans to live together or long term commitment, but i am letting down the barriers and happy. I wasn't looking for love or relationships, but sometimes gay dad dancing wins your heart |

As I once heard in a film " love is comfort food for the weak and uneducated" lol I've been single for 10 years, as was said somewhere above I don't and won't settle for anyone. I've got fancy and adore them, feel like I wanna compliment them by the way I look into there eyes with the first thought I could lay there all day with them and feel at home even in silence and they have to be able to have a laugh |

You can have love without trust you just can't have a relationship without trust. You can't have trust without trust either |

It's subjective, of course. What works for one might not for another.
People fix themselves after all kinds of incredible trauma, though. Maybe after, they are changed... maybe not. It's important to know yourself after possible changes before entering into concepts of truth and love.
Love yo'self first, basically |

For me there is a distinction between loving and being in love. I have a depth of feeling for several people (on here) that can be described as a kind of love. It's not platonic, and it goes well beyond fondness. These people are dear to me. I dont like the term FWB, but they are friends, and there is intimacy. Some are closer than others, they are friends, lovers and confidantes all rolled into one package.
Head over heels crazy in love? Not sure I ever had that. I was married young, and basically went along with things.. got talked into getting engaged, we fell pregnant got married so we could live together...
I always live in hope that some day I will be knocked sideways. She will have to be one hell of a woman though (to put up with me every day) |

Having that amount of trust for someone would be difficult, and since I only love other trans people who can take jokes without being offended, I doubt it. |

Single forever I think. Too selfish for a relationship in every department apart from the bedroom. Very much a giver in that sense. Regular fwb I'd hope for someday however sleeping with complete strangers is still my ultimate turn on. |

Love is not the Question
I'd say it's easier to love than to trust someone,
Now could I see myself fully trusting someone again,

I struggle trusting people anyway, at the moment I’m happily single. I’m certainly not looking for a relationship, it’s easier to fuck and go, no emotions involved.
I did fall in love (or lust? Who knows) a couple of years ago, he told me at the time he wasn’t looking for a relationship, so I’m happy counting him as one of my best friends now instead |

"Do you think you will love again or has a past relationship scarred you for life?"
I'm married (again) but it took me 8 years to get over the trauma of the previous relationship and fully trust and commit to my present husband. I thought I'll never let anyone get close to me or get married again. Time and his patience changed that.

"Like some of the ladies said above, I could love again but sharing a home will take awhile as I'm difficult to live with or at least that's what my ex girlfriend (thankfully we're still friends so I can say this) has said lol"
Yes you bloody well was with your weird & wonderful ways! |

Love is not the Question
I'd say it's easier to love than to trust someone,
Now could I see myself fully trusting someone again,
Doubt it"
I agree 100% |

I don't think I will love again, after 4 years single and question every thing a man will do it is unhealthy. I've left site's like this to give 100% only to find because you settle into a relationship, however they were friends of friends etc. It becomes a point were you rather they was friends. |

I like to think I will meet somebody, I'm not scarred by past relationships at all, my last relationship ended when I was 31 and we were friends for years afterwards (still are if we bump into each other)
I am aware the older you get it is harder to meet people, I have put myself on dating sites, but I have been disappointed in the lack of social skills from men my age, they just don't have a clue and I just don't understand why!
I suppose it doesn't help that I was not brought up here, so my thinking is not the same as theirs, but it can't just be purely that, can it? I mean I've been here for nearly 30 years for gods sake I just don't understand it.
I know I am a strong independent woman but surely that can't put every man off, can it?  |

I don't think my past relationships has scarred me for life. Yes they have taught me lessons and I have learned to be stronger and not allow some of the behaviours I allowed to happen in past relationships but I think that is true for most people. I'm happy being single now and I'm not actively looking for a relationship. Maybe at some stage I will find someone who I will want a realionship with who knows what the future holds. |

I’ve actively avoided getting into a loving relationship for years now but at 46 I think I’m ready to be in that type of relationship again and if I’m honest over the last couple of years I’ve missed it. |

Do I have scars? Yes?
Do I hope I love again? Yes, I’d be disappointed if I don’t.
Scars make us interesting, exciting, insightful and better people to be around.
There’s nothing exciting or interesting about a carbon copy of perfection, is there? |

"That I'm very happy being single thank you very much and no intentions whatsoever to be in any kind of relationship.
But them an amazing man walked into my life and made me feel so loved a special. "
That’s beautiful to feel special..so happy for you both |

This is actually a really really sad thread ... I do truly hope that people find that certain something that is seemingly being missed out upon by most, nearly all here x |

I have an enormous amount of love to give and want so much to be loved and cared about but its rarely reciprocated in the disposable dating world we have now and it truly sucks.
Im the only one of 7 siblings and of a large friendship group who is single and have never been married and now im pushing 50 ive pretty much given up now so its cats all the way for me! |

I agree with you.
I don't think about love at all anymore but I do wish to have a companion during my traveling period. Being a CD makes it almost impossible of course...despair? maybe.
But chin up, the most important person to love us is ourselves. Don't ever forget that.
