The one that got away .........

Any regrets on the one that got away ?

Women share stories of the one that got away

http://dailym.ai/2hNFfYU


Women have shared their regrets about relationships that didn't work out
One woman said it was her boyfriend's friend who had first caught her eye
Another woman regrets not responding to letters from a holiday romance
Sometimes the timing is just bad – or you just don’t realise what you have until it’s gone.
Usually it takes some time before you realise that person was the one that got away.
From wistfully looking at their pictures on Facebook years later to holiday romances that ended a little too soon, women shared stories about their lost loves with Body and Soul.
One woman revealed her one that the one that got away didn’t go too far – and was actually her boyfriend’s friend.

The only regrets I have are those ones I didn't act upon when I was happily married - the first time.

I only had one boyfriend and I married him 47 years ago. I have never looked at another guy before or since, not interested.

Re: The one that got away .........

Yes, It happened to me!
I was going out with someone for a while and we were very close. We finished and l met my husband (ex). Two weeks, before we married, l met the one l had been close to and he begged me to cancel my wedding and marry him. I said, l couldn't do that and went through with my marriage. Not one day of my marriage did l not think about the one that 'got away' he was the love of my life and later, he told me l was the love of his life!
Thirty years later, l was divorced and bumped into the 'one that got away'. His life wasn't good, his wife was an alcoholic and he was very unhappy. I looked at him and l felt nothing and wondered what l had seen in him in the first place!
It's a funny old life!!

Re: The one that got away .........

I wish I had kept in touch with the firs boy I fall in love with as he was the only one who made my heart miss beat
He was tall and good looking just like Michael Angelo's 'David' but with clothes on.
He left the area and there was no contact for sometime.

Every day even when married, I thought about him and wished him well.

Years Ago it was not easy to trace people

It is when we lose someone in death, there is a wailing and a gnashing of teeth, because we did not say all the things we meant to say, did not spend enough time with them.

I had so many before I met Mrs Fox it's hard to narrow it down......Never been unfaithful to Mrs Fox since though...

I bet there are plenty who consider me the one that got away...

Re: The one that got away .........

Well, one of the ones that "got away" was dishonest and unfaithful. Another one turned out to believe in a literal interpretation of the Bible, was apparently not interested in a any physical aspect of a relationship, - - AND had a cat!
