And your conclusion is excellent. Why dig into what happened before you two even met? I, quite frankly, never asked because I didn't want to know. Since I met my husband of 45 years in high school, there wouldn't have been too much there to ask about anyway. Err, not necessarily true, but that's what I told myself back then! :) <BR/><BR/>Continue writing... you are good!Gaylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02540710405153666843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727464.post-1129908242129607842005-10-21T11:24:00.000-04:002005-10-21T11:24:00.000-04:00Should just let the past stay in the past - like i...Should just let the past stay in the past - like i heard a quote about the best way to be happy is to have a bad memory.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10921754830022448579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727464.post-1129906422543571212005-10-21T10:53:00.000-04:002005-10-21T10:53:00.000-04:00Beautiful post, nunzia!

I wish we'd had your wisdom; it would have spared us some very "heated" discussions and a lot of hurt feelings. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for visiting <A HREF="http://samuraisam1.blogspot.com" REL="nofollow">A Beginner's Mind</A> as well!Samurai Samhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13874504160316803215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727464.post-1129899346069872862005-10-21T08:55:00.000-04:002005-10-21T08:55:00.000-04:00God bless you Nunzia!!have a great weekend....----...God bless you Nunzia!!<BR/>have a great weekend....<BR/>-----<BR/>I havent been in a realationship so I guess I better learn from you rather than commenting :)<BR/>------<BR/>please pray for me <BR/>praying for you too<BR/>God bless you and M!!!<BR/>thomascrossbladehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17708915794785563009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727464.post-1129871661535245832005-10-21T01:14:00.000-04:002005-10-21T01:14:00.000-04:00Hey, do you ever listen to WRVA (1140 AM)?

Sometimes it's okay, it just depends on whether or not you can truly stomach those thoughts. It took me a long time to get over my jealousy. Hopefully, you've put yours behind you.Nightcrawlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04646350111182511131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727464.post-1129841617225605652005-10-20T16:53:00.000-04:002005-10-20T16:53:00.000-04:00Thank you so much for that.

If we can find out, we feel like we've solved a little more of the mystery, and we know them even more deeply. Our fallacy in doing this lies with the motive - if we really care about the person and want to know them, we will want to know who they <I>are</I> and not who they <I>were</I>. However, we always chase down the past so that we can torture ourselves with it. It's hard not to. But who we are in the present must be careful not to become a "who we were" in the past, someone we'll have to tell future lovers about regretfully.<BR/><BR/>God instructs us, "do not call to mind the former things, or ponder things of the past. Behold I will do something new" (Is 43:18) if you are a new creation in Him, then look to a hopeful future! Paul said "forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus" (Phi 3:13b-14). <BR/><BR/>Be encouraged, sister. You're not alone in this struggle. We all go through it; most of us can relate. Don't give up! It doesn't mean your boyfriend doesn't love who you are now, and you should love him for who he is now :)Jonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05161046339628197264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727464.post-1129769102534782282005-10-19T20:45:00.000-04:002005-10-19T20:45:00.000-04:00Hey,Thanx for dropping by.Kinda got what u meant.S...Hey,Thanx for dropping by.Kinda got what u meant.Some people find it harder to let go than hold on and im not sure where i stand.
