I agree.... I often wonder how long it's going to keep going down the same road.

Ok, throw rocks at me if you want to but here goes... you pick what is inside of you. If love hurts, then somewhere, somewhen you have established that belief that love hurts and that belief is hardwired into you. You will continue to be attracted to those people, pets or things that will bring you back to that place of pain until you can transcend it and transform that Love=Pain belief/energy within you.
Many people spend many years and much money/energy working thru this with councilors, family, loved ones, psychiatrists, psychologists, friends, enemies and therapists and it takes forever to overcome it. It also drains the non professionals of their energy so that they tend to add to your love/pain belief by rejecting you and running you off when they are 'tapped out' of emotional and mental energy dealing with those issues.
We can easily overcome those limiting and painful beliefs ourselves, quickly and at very low financial cost to ourselves (as compared to traditional methods of psychiatrists etc) by learning emotional self help techniques that eliminate and dissolve those beliefs and energies. Or, we can continue to be a drain and a pain to others til the day we die, grasping greedily and selfishly at people and draining their energies with our challenges.
Yeah, love CAN be painful but so can just about ANYthing in life. And it can also be joyful, enlivening, fantastic, etc. Try asking yourself...'Is my cup half full or half empty?' If it is half full, you love life and it will love you back. If it is half empty, then so are you. You cannot be filled from outside of you. It has to come from within.
People do not bring things to you, Source does. People only deliver it. If you have a lack of connection and alignment with Source, then your life will feel very limited.

So what? it was love and great time and I am so happy it was in my life, it happened to me so I was so blessed! It went away! So what? Now I have room for a new feeling! And thank you very much, all my men, who loved me - you made me stronger and softer, happier and wiser! Each man made me more human! I am me because of them! Posessive love hurts - I agree! When you want to change another person or make your life more comfortable trying to bend him/her. Happened to me many yrs ago too. So I made conclusions! And still love those damn men!

"Try asking yourself...'Is my cup half full or half empty?'"
A true pessimist would say that it is half empty... and it is poison!

..Try asking yourself...'Is my cup half full or half empty?"
How one answers IS the answer.
If you say "half full", your "glass" was shared; if you say "half empty", it was taken from you.
Look for lip prints, I say.

Different people come into our lives for different reasons. Not all will be good reasons. But you have to believe that the ones who are special will show up when they should.

They are ALL special. Even the ones that hurt. I have never met someone that did not teach me something. No matter how I felt at the time, I feel it was a necessary part of my growth.
I love myself now. The worst people taught me to do that.

I have met some really great people since the last bad one. They were just not MY one right now. They may be the best for ourselves, but we have to remember that we may not be THEIR best choices. That is the part that can get painful.

If you, I, anyone, doesn't put the love out there, then none will come into our lives.
You say love hurts for a long time? Sounds like a small price to pay wouldn't you say for something you can't get any other way? It is our choice.
Me and my 'wisdom'....I just read what I wrote and I don't even take my own advice 
s up to you!

Oh, in my case, it gets 'put out there'...the love. Maybe my form of love is just not what the other person is looking for. Everyone has their own form of love, you know. THAT is when the pain comes in. When our pictures/views/beliefs of what love is does not match up. Sad to say but so very true.

With the healing guidance of a wise friend, I have learned that "Hurt" is a process to which I must be "present" (consciously acknowledging), accepting the erratic waves of grief as inevitable and necessary to my being eventually lifted and freed.
She and I ventured that, if I had had open heart surgery ( as if loss of love isn't that  ) I wouldn't be surprised or impatient (or screaming at the universe) at the length of time it took to heal - I would "accept" that all parts of me had to mend and grow together before I would come to function at my previous (or hopefully) improved level of capability. I would know that bones and organs that have been wrenched apart cannot be ignored because I want to pretend the pain never existed; they have to re-attach in their own time.
And that is exactly how we recover from loss of love - slowly, enduring aching reminders of the loss, healing seeping gradually (as a wound slowly closes, scabs over then smooths to the normalcy of a scar) until we begin to test ourselves and find we are stong enough to "love" again.
Thank you, blessed AngelLight, for your brilliant and gentle perspective!

DN! Not, the trick is to find someone that holds the same view of love is. I am adding that to my creation list. Lessons learned!
