Long Term Relationship
« on: January 10, 2011, 08:12:00 pm »

I met him 5yrs ago. We became friends, M.U. and now lovers. We are taking it slowly but surely and i can say that im happy with him. We are both committed &  making time for each other.

Before we are always arguing about time, maybe that's part of building our relationship. We surpassed the long distance relationship for 3 yrs. & jelousy part.

He always understands my sentiments and very patient about me. He taught me on how to build a strong foundation on this relationship & I realized it just recently.
 
One year is the longest relationship i've ever had and this is the first time i experienced this long term relationship.
 
I've never been this happier on my whole life, someone whom i can love and someone who love me as well. Getting to know him better everyday excites me most.

How about you sisses do you experiencing the same?

It was always been my dream of having a long term relationship and lucky I found a guy who has the
same thinking that I have. We will be on our 9th year on October of 2011
You have to keep moving, because if you are standing still, everything around you changes, but if you are moving, you are changing everything.

sis, pareho tayo 5th year na namin ngayon, super improved na ang relationship namin.

Wala akong serious relationship before eh, iyong tipong mag-on kayo pero may kanya-kanyang buhay doon ako nasanay before, kaya mga first 2 years namin eh giyera patani talaga, kasi hindi naman ako nagpapatalo. Eventually nag slow down ako, pinakinggan ko ang mga sinasabi niya mga expectations sa relationship etc. Kaya ngayon happy happy na kami :) This is my longest relationship and still counting pa.

Give and take lang talaga sis para mag work

he was my "first"

but then, after ng lahat ng pangako...na papakasal na kami by 2012, after lahat ng promises na we will stick with each other through thick and thin...he left me :(

that was the saddest part :(

i'm 27 now, 8 mos single...still wishing to have that- "and they live happily ever after" ending.

masakit on my part. we talked about it a lot of times, that i'm scared na mauwi kami sa wala kasi galing ako sa broken family. he knows about me too well, my background, my family...then he did everything to make me believe na ako na, na hindi nya ako iiwan kahit anong mangyari.

then he got busy at work, enjoyed the "yuppies" world at 30. then suddenly he started to dream about BIG things...but in that dream, he chose not to include me in the picture anymore.

masarap magmahal..mahirap kapag may mga trials, pero kakayanin basta alam mo na kasama at karamay mo yung taong mahal mo...pero kapag naiwan ka pag-isa, masakit.

i wish i'd stop believing in forever. kasi in reality it doesn't exist na ata. nagbabago lahat sa paglipas ng panahon.

pero inside me...i want to have a long term relationship na for keeps.

sana lahat ng sisses na nangangarap nito, mameet din yung taong yun.

hindi madaling maghintay...hindi madaling mag-isa.

sis, alam mo ba sa collage friends ko, ako lang ata ang walang eye for marriage, I mean by that time hindi ko nakikita ang sarili ko sa ganoong bagay, noong naging kami, nag open up ako sa kanya i know na na hurt siya, but eventually siya rin ang nagpabago sa isip ko ;).

we are working our budget tightly para maka save for next year.

Since 8months na kayong wala, maybe you can try to talk to him, pag usapan ninyo ang nakaraan, mas okay kasi pag usapan kapag matagal na, para na oopen up lahat ng bagay, malay mo ma realize niya ang mali niya diba? at masabi rin niya sa iyo ang mga short comings kung meron. Although dapat prepared ka sa for better or for worst na ending. Anyway kung hindi man kayo magkabalikan at least may closure in yuor part, na eventually eh tutulong saiyo to move on.

Minsan kasi nakakalimot talaga tayo sa mga priorities natin sa buhay eh, ang gamot sa kalimot? Shempre pa-alala in a more malambing way, and not the nagger type :)

sis iheartkulot - pray. magiging maayos din ang lahat. ;)

Kami naman, 4 years and counting. Sabi ng manghuhula, siya na ang mapapangasawa ko. At by 2012/2013 kami ikakasal. Hehe! Sa ngayon, enjoy muna kami. Pero may binabayaran na kaming bahay para after ng kasal may sarili na kaming bahay. :)

Naku, hindi naman smooth sailing yung relationship namin for almost 9 yrs. We broke up twice or thrice na yata. First it was my fault, I broke up with him kasi nasanay ako sa set-up na lagi ko sya kasama. HS sweethearts kami, first nya ako first ko din sya. Sabay lagi pag break times at up to dismissals magkasama kami. So when we entered college, nagulat ako. Mga almost 2 yrs kaming hiwalay nun. first year siya ang humahabol sa akin then bumaliktad yun. Then naging kami ulit then nag ka-problem ulit dahil fault ko.Nag punta kasi ako states eh kakayos lang namin nun, mga 5 months pa lang kami ulit nun. Since sobrang miss ko sya I ended up with another guy. Yung presence na hinahanap ko binibigay nung lalakeng yun. sa umpisa sya lang naman ang may gs2 sa akin then eventually na fall ako (dun ko napatunayan na pwede mo ngang pag-aralan mahalin ang isang tao) 3 months lang ako dun then willing na ako give up BF ko dahil nahihiya na ako sa kanya dahil willing sya ulit tanggapin ako after ng ginawa ko. Nahirapan ako mamili that time. Super wineigh ko yung dalawa and at the end sa BF ko talaga ako ulit bumalik. My ultimate question kasi naman akong tinanong dun sa isang lalake and hindi nya nasagot. Pero syempre Id ask for a space muna. Sympre gusto ko pagkaharap ko siya, sya talaga yung nasa isip ko. Then after a month naging okey na kami.By that time ang daming nangyari sa akin, sa family ko na talagang nakapag pa-matured sa akin. Kaya nung bumalik ako sa kanya nag promised ako na never ko na sya ulit sasakatan. Minsan lang ako mag promise mga sisses and yun yung unang-una. Of course my fear na baka after 2 years sya naman ang magloko pero still nag GO ako. And nagkatotoo nga yung naisip ko. Just last year of Aug he called it quits. Na-fall out daw sya, whatsoever. Syempre masakit, first time ko lang maranasan yun sa buhay ko. Dati ako lagi nanakit and that time dun ko naranasan yung sakit ng mga ginagawa ko. Hinabol ko ba sya? for a bit. Mga 2 months, sinugal ko lahat. Ive done a lot and most of them first time just to prove to him how much I loved him and to convince him to think twice about his situation. Taon na kami then pagpapalit nya ako sa months pa lang nyang nakikilala na mas walang values sa akin. hehe, ang sama ko pero totoo yung sinasabi ko. Family nya pa lang botong-boto na sa akin eversince naging kami. Payag na nga silang pakasal kami. Talagang magyayabang ako na mas okey ako kesa sa babaeng yun. Pero kahit naman ganun walang okey dun dahil still that time iba gusto nya. I prayed na lang and naging optimistic ako sa lahat nangyayari sa kin. Sabi ko baka eto yung time na matutupad na yung wish ko na maging matured na sya kahit by means of hurting me. Ako naman time ko yun to love myself again. At kung hindi man sya babalik naniniwala ako na my mas better na darating. And I can say effective sya dahil in just 3 months nakamove-one ako. Pero alam nyo ba sisses na 2 sa mga iniisip ko ang nagkatotooo during our break-up. First is by January, by the time na magOOJT sya dun nya ako maiisip muli, yung mamimiss nya ako ulit. yung tipong ako ulit ang gusto nya and second before sila umalis babalik sya sa akin. Lahat yun nagkatotoo. Ngayon, kami na ulit. After 8 months na hiwalay, sa lahat-lahat ng nangyari sa amin kami pa din yung nagsasama sa bandang huli. Those problems made our relationship stronger. I will not deny the fact na my times na nababalik yung issue pero hindi na sya katulad ng dati na tumatagal talaga. And also di ko rin dedeny na somehow my fault ako kung bakit nya nagawa dati yun. Hindi ba ako nagdalawang isip na makipagbalikan sa kanya? Of course oo, pero napabilib nya ako sa mga binitawan nya sa akin na salita and talagang first time ko lang narinig sa kanya yun. So Id took a risk again and said yes. People can look at it in two different sides, in a negative way mukha akong taga-salo pero walang mangyayari kung lagi na lang negative ang mga tingin mo sa bagay. In a positive way naman, yung mga nangyari sa amin trials yun. Mas okey ng ngayon nangyari yung mga bagay na yun kesa sa panahon na mag-asawa na kami. Of course din hindi mawawala yung  fear ko na baka maulit yung ginawa ko dati na nasa states ako dahil ngayon sya naman ang nasa ibang bansa. buong pamilya nila nag migrate to canada. The only thing im doing right is to do what is right as his partner and if ever may mangyari ulit ( cross-finger ) alam ko na wala na akong pagkukulang ngayon. And syempre masasaktan ako ulit pero I think its all part of falling in love.
Right now we're good or better kahit my distance.  No more fights, mas nagkakaintindihan. Wala naman nagbago sa amin, kung ano yung dreams namin dati yung bubuo ng pamilya, andun pa din yun. Kung may nabago or nadagdag I think mas naging matured kami.

Having a long term relationship doesnt mean naman na wala kayong problem the whole pagsasama nyo dahil sa mga problemang yun nga kayo tumatagal lalo.

Sorry for my long post. I just wanna inspire other people na love is not always on top of the world minsan kailangan mo talagang masubsub para lang maappreciate kung anong meron ka.

HAPPY LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP TO US ALL!!!

sis miming, read mo ang post about sa facinating womanhood, dito sa GT iyon eh, may pdf file ang ganda ng message, kaya ngayon tina try ko gawin isa-isa.

Tama sis, na mahalin mo ang sarili mo, kasi in the long run kung na neglect mo ang sarili mo, sino pa ang titingin noon, eh tayo naman may responsibilidad sa sarili natin.

@ sis whitelady17 and sis danda- thanks ha...sa totoo lang di ko alam kung nababaliw lang ako kasi nga 8 mos na rin kami wala..pero tuloy pa rin ang dasal ko na isang araw eh bumalik siya. and parang etong separation is a way para mas maging mature kami. para mas marealize namin ang worth ng isat isa. sana-sana...

@ sis miming, nakakatuwa ang kwento mo. inspiring din sis. kasi parang it says na kahit mahirap, may pag-asa rin na maging okay pa ang lahat.

Goodluck and God bless sa ating mga sisses ha.

Wala naman relasyon na madali at puro saya, kaya sana yung partners natin, yung hindi bumibitaw kapag may mga trials na dumating...

as for me..i sincerely hope na siya pa rin yung makasama ko eventually sa pagharap sa buhay. nakakatuwa ang thread na'to. nung una akala ko baka maging bitter lang ako. hahaha. kasi aaminin ko, nakakainggit yung may mga partners...yugn kahit dumadaan sila sa trials, they manage to make it work. mahirap kasi kapag bumitaw ang isa.

^ok lang yan sis! Hindi naman talaga madali ang magkeep ng isang relationship. Lalo na kung isa bibitaw na lang. Pero pasasaan din, magiging masaya din tayong lahat. Hindi naman sa minahal natin at gusto natin makasama, kindi sa taong tinakda sa atin ni Bro. ;)
Saka hindi naman lahat ng may karelasyon, naging masaya agad. Im sure may time din na nasaktan sila, tulad natin. Pero sa huli, naging matatag at mas mature para sa mas nararapat nating mahalin at mamahalin din tayo. ;)

sis, kung siya ang bumitaw, dapat ikaw ang malakas ang kapit eh, and by the time na ikaw ang bumigay siya naman ang lalakas ang kapit, give and take lang.

Well sis eventually kung hindi talaga siya ang naka tadhana, eh don't rush into things, that you might regret later on in life, just keep on improving yourself, para by the time dumating na si THE ONE, you are ready, kasi naka move on ka na and so on. :)

We wish you all the luck sis ;)

sis iheartkulot, alam ko na medyo or totally iba yung situation mo compare sa akin dahil almost ikakasal na kayo. Its good that your praying pero I think pag pray mo yung sarili mo muna, na maging okey ka even without him. Kasi ako before ganun din dasal ko na sana bumalik sya pero ako din yun nasasaktan sa huli. So katagalan pinagaralan kong maging open yung mind ko na my possibility na hindi na sya bumalik. So ang pinagpapray ko na is my much better na dumating na makakayang mong makalimutan yung ex mo. And then eventually dumating na sa akin yung acceptance. Somehow nga siniraan ko sya sa sarili ko na sabi ko na he is not worth it. Na he is not man enough to appreciate a real woman. yung mga tipong ganun. Kumbaga itayo mo yung bandila mo as babae. And if ever bumalik sya atleast di mo expected. Mas masarap yung feeling. And if not of course my dadating na mas much better. Trust God na binigay nya yan sayo dahil may purpose, kahit masakit alam mo naman na soon everything will be okey. Na pag naalala mo yung panahon na broken hearted ka eh mapapangiti ka na lang kasi na overcome mo na.

Mahirap talaga kasi na-set na natin sa utak natin somehow na siya na yung forever natin. Yung kasama mo for the rest of your life then isang iglap mawawala yung mga nakasanayan mo.

Just pray and believe everything happens for a reason and sa pagiging better ng mga bagay-bagay.
You have to keep moving, because if you are standing still, everything around you changes, but if you are moving, you are changing everything.

Aww sana maging ok ka na sis iheartkulot.

I agree with sis whitelady17 that you should take care of yourself. I know it's easier said than done kasi I've been there too pero nasa satin din yun kung pano tayo matutong makapag let go and move on. You need to help yourself too.  Acceptance is the key para makapag move on kalakip ng prayers.

Tama din si sis miming, instead of praying for him to come back, pray for yourself first. God has something in store for you basta put your faith in Him. I know I did. And now, 1yr and 6mos na kami ng bf ko :) going strong kahit nasa ibang bansa siya. And sobrang thankful ako na dumating siya sa buhay ko. 

Everything happens for a reason. I know kaya binigay sakin noon yung sobrang minahal kong tao to make me a stronger person today and to learn from my mistakes. Ngayon, sobrang happy ako dahil he's more than I could ever ask for :)
