No Longer Valid
There were signs! Today, when I sit back and think, all those inconsequential things do add up. How you would never accept certain calls in our presence and then excuse yourself to make calls minutes later. Oh, those unaccountable hours and finances and the ludicrous excuses. How naive I was!
I think, we love each other, still, but guess it’s not enough, just like the rings in our hands… they are still there but no longer valid.
I’m not bitter or jealous.
Just hurt.
I thought, I’d be able to get through all of this, but I was so wrong!

I guess at the first sign one must be warned and talk it through or walk away. Otherwise, it’s too painful!

Agree, it is important to handle the warning signs before it is too late. But mostly, it’s wait and watch or things would get better sooner or later, but they rarely do!

Such a painful situation. 🙁

True that! 🙁

I guess ignoring the signs will rust the relationship! It’s better to pay attention and solve problems as and when they arise instead of ignoring them or piling up for later!

Well said, Swathi! Communication is the key to sort any issue!

Very sad story.
July 17, 2014 12:54 am|
Indeed!
July 15, 2014 11:29 pm|
Very painful.

Some hurts are deep and almost never heal…
July 17, 2014 12:56 am|
Oh yes! Some wounds never heal and even if they heal, the scar remains!

this is a painful situation. Breaks my heart to even think about it.

Heart wrenching painful!

Your post touched a chord Shilpa. A dear friend is going through exactly this scenario and it’s just so hard.

Oh! An acquaintance of ours went through this too. Though it took a long time for her to come out of the depression, hurt and pain, thankfully, life is smiling at her once again! Touch wood!

Hmmm well now those are the signs that need to be picked up early and a decision made wether to talk it out or part ways and make a new life..
July 17, 2014 1:01 am|
I know what you mean, Bikram. But I wonder, if such decisions are that easy to take! And parting ways though may be the best option but it may not be feasible for some! Or may be if only they took that step…

The moment these signs start to trouble one,one should either settle it there and then OR just walk away and end the relationship..
It hurts .

Sorting it out makes sense!

Wonder what goes on in the minds of such cheats! A sad truth for many, some suffer while others take action.Great write-up.
July 17, 2014 1:04 am|
I know… wonder if they are able to sleep peacefully at night! True, very few take that step while most continue to accept the changed circumstances, sadly!

yes it hurts… and if love has left the relationship, a very natural thing to happen, it is best to break the tie mutually

Total betrayal of trust and nothing can be more shameful and hurtful than to know that you have been cheated by your love.
