Why does loving someone hurt




















If so please let me know and thank you. I couldnt get past the part where the scientist inflicted pain on animals by taking them away from their mothers. All that pain inflicted just so he could put a name on something we all, already knew. When my ex of 3 years broke up with me, I became physically and psychologically ill.

I had serious panic attacks and I developed a sinus infection that got so bad my mother had to carry me to the car and take me to the hospital. They told me if I had waited longer I would have died. I think my immune system was lowered because of heart break.

It took me almost six years to fall in love with someone else. I still think about my ex daily. However I now love my husband. It is just so relieving to find an honest thread of people here. And now you have no one to Go out with.

Especially when you still wish the person you left the best of everything from Afar. And then once again no one would want to Understand that and thinks you just must line punishing yourself.

So much sad misunderstanding. So much covering up to not feel. Yeah and you must just want to be sad. I wish all you honest people out there suffering the knowledge that you do deserve to heal the right way. And I wish you people to see that and help you. And yet, she sees so much now of how she could not have prevented this at all and how many things this young man presented with need to be dealt with or they will never be able to be a proper team as you have to keep the people you really love.

The third slight. I would do it all again in order to see my daughter as strong as she is now but what kills me is I can see she will never forget him. She never chased after. And she has to see him Very often.

And the people she let unfriend her. I am in Silence from The ones that unfriended Me. So I believe all you on here. I hope you all have someone to stand by you. A broken heart as many know can be excruciating pain however not letting go and moving on perpetuates that pain.

Please try not to spend too much time on staying stuck reliving the pain. One answer is my chronic loneliness has caused me to make poor choices and finally after so much debilitating pain, I rather endure the pain of solitude than being continously beaten up emotionally.

I loved a girl. I wanted her only as. I am not able to stop thinking about her. Even I am feeling pain in the heart. I fell in deep love with a girl years and years ago. She is from another country and her work Visa expired. We were engaged and very much still in love. When I finally got her paperwork approved to get back she no longer wanted to be away from her home and I was young and afraid to make the move.

Years went on and we both remarried. I still thought about her almost every day, which is probably unhealthy. She recently reached out to me and told me she still felt the same way that she felt years ago about In a way it made me happy that I was not alone in the feelings, but in another way it hurt almost worse to know. To know that we will probably always feel this way but will probably never even see each other again. She is my soulmate and always will be.

Nothing compares to true love. Never give up on something like that. Love is the most beautifullest and most powerful feeling that ever exists for everyone and anything Alive with a beating heart.

I believe in Love with all my heart. Communication, the way you look into eachothers eyes say it all. Love you be you and LOVE. All or nothing, yes and no. From a real soul with a big heart.

Start with loving around you.. Why does love hurt? Are you able to Express yourself like you wanted? Will your significant other take time to hear and acknowledge the way you feel? Hes is still in love with his ex. Now here I sit alone with his 5 year old child. Hoping love will make it my way soon. My chest hurt so bad as if someone was drilling a hole from my chest to my back. I could not breathe for a few minutes and someone has had to massage my chest and give me a drink of water.

Broken heart does manifest physically. I am feeling pain as the possibility of losing the one l love exist. I am going to end the relationship.

Friends may be a bit more conscious about inhibitions and limits in the way they speak and act to each other, though the more trust and closeness in a friendship, inevitably the more authentic the expression too. However, this lack of inhibitions and boundaries makes it easier to unintentionally hurt the other person.

Maybe an innocent, spontaneous comment can be perceived as hurtful or offensive, or a joke sounds a bit too sharp or inconsiderate to your partner. Or you feel so safe with your partner that you allow yourself to break down in tears in front of them, and subsequently need their comfort and assistance in order to recover- but you don't realize this can have a negative impact on them too. At the beginning stages of intimate relationships during the honeymoon phase , we usually present our best possible Self to our partner; just the shiny Parts.

We tend to closely monitor our behaviour in order to be regarded as perfect and wonderful as possible, and avoid acting in any way that could jeopardize the new-found connection we are invested to further develop. Yet this is just a Persona, since we all have darker or weaker Parts that we carefully hide until it feels safer to show them too.

Feeling safe means trusting that the other will accept us even if we dare to be ourselves fully. Feeling safe enough to show all of You is of course something positive , and the reflection of true intimacy - but also quite tricky.

It is easy to lose control and overstep the boundaries of the other. If you find yourself in this position:. Working towards positive outcomes strengthens your connection and makes you both feel like a team, which is an amazing foundation for your relationship. Attachment Style. Quite a lot that happens in our intimate relationships is determined by our attachment style, that can be changed with a lot of inner work and positive relational experiences.

We learn to love in familiar ways. Mostly unconsciously, we strive to reenact our childhood experiences of what love is and how is it expressed. We look to recreate in our intimate relationships the feelings we knew so well in childhood, as these were taught to us by our primary caregivers and later on probably often repeated by romantic partners too. Perhaps you learned from an early age that close relationships are intertwined with pain and hurt , so you have developed a sensitive inner radar to whenever things get too close; this can be an indication of danger to which you respond in the way it used to happen when you were little.

How did you observe love to be expressed when you were little? Was hurting the other something you remember seeing, and in which ways? If you are curious about your Attachment Style, you can take this test here! Asserting Independence. Intimacy is definitely scary. It means emotionally approaching another individual too closely, even merging with them in a way. It can happen that you may unwillingly hurt the other when the emotional distance between you seems a bit too close for your liking.

This is an unconscious way to assert your own space and independence by pushing the other person away. Time to stop feeling hurt and start feeling loved?

Love is bound to these other aspects of your relationship, and so when you feel pain whilst in love, you associate that pain with the love.

But lust soon fades and you are confronted with the stark realities of who this new person in your life really is. You fell in lust with the fantasy person you have in your mind, and are then disappointed when you realize that your partner cannot live up to that fantasy. You may find your partner irritating in ways you never would have imagined when first lusting after them.

This conflict hurts not just because you feel attacked, but also because you realize you are capable of attacking the person you love. Or you might obsess about the suitability of your partner constantly.

This steals away your inner peace — more pain follows. Because you can never know the answer to these questions, you might fret and worry about what lies ahead of you.
