Who has lost the love of their life before?

I have been waiting for a thread like this. I have come to believe from my own experience that love is a myth. I loved a girl more than life itself. We were together for a couple years, most of it was long distance, then we finally lost touch. Her brother is my best friend, almost like a brother to me. When he moved down here from living where he was living he told me that she was getting married. To me that felt like someone ripped my heart out. I tried to get in contact with her but I couldn't. Well she finally got married and just recently had a child. She was down here where I live visiting her parents and brother. He (her brother) tried to get her to see me but she wouldn't, or couldn't. What ever the reason I don't know. I know that she still has feelings for me, and I think so much that her husband is jealouse of me. She always asks her brother about me. I think though if she were to get a divorce so that she could be with me, as much as it pains me to say it, I could never go back to her. I have completely shut off all of my feelings and emotions towards her, and she can be nothing more to me than just a friend. I blame myself for part of this, but I think that if she had as much love for me as she had claimed she wouldn't have gotten married to that other guy. It has been too long since I have felt that kind of love, and I wonder if my heart will ever heal.

Well now new posts here in a couple days. It has been a pleasure reading everyone's input. I truly believe everyone that read or contributed to this post has grown.

There is a book named "In the Midst of Winter" that I read after my wife passed away. Is that what you are quoting from? If you are looking for more on this subject, you can find them at most Hospice centers. Another good catharsis is going into the loss of loved one chat rooms.
