		<description>&lt;p&gt;It&#039;s good that you used your writting as an outlet from a difficult situation. You did the right thing you did what you had to do for you. People are going to bad mouth you whether things are good or bad, they have to have something or someone to talk about, that&#039;s just how life is. One thing that I&#039;ve learned living life is that you have to do thing that suits you not anyone else. all our life are indevisuals and we live them according to us not anyone elses. If we all lived according to others we would all be in the same place in our lives. You do you and only for you and let everyone else be out for themselves. We don&#039;t know when our time is comming so we should live to please ourselves, but not causing pain to anyone else. Live, Love, Laugh.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;You couldn&#039;t have said this any better.  I recently broke up with my long term boyfriend, and I can totally relate to this blog.  He and I simply did not want the same things.  Am I supposed to hate him for that?  I would not appreciate it if he or his friends and family hated me for that!  It really sucks that our relationship ended, but it is what it is, and I could scream and yell and throw things (and sometimes I want to!) but what good would that do?  And what good would it do to hate him?  None of those thing would bring him back or change his mind, and I wouldn&#039;t feel any better about myself.  Why can&#039;t people accept the break up, as I have, without all the hate?  There&#039;s enough hate in this world!&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I realize that you wrote this in January but i am new to the online blogs and such but not at all a stranger to the internet - im 22 just graduated college two weeks ago and kind of recently got out of a 4 month relationship if you want to call it that- and ive been very upset and felt like i was going crazy a little, and all of my friends have said it was only 4 months imagine how upset you would be if it were longer and that always made me so upset and angry but i never said anything, i LOVED that you said &quot; I guess I never thought it should matter if I knew him six days, six weeks, or six years. I was sad; there doesn&#039;t have to be a reason or a number to justify that&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that is exactly how i have always felt and i just wanted to say thank you for putting it into words for me&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I&#039;ve been wallowing for over a month now from my break-up. And I hate it, I just want to stop thinking about him. I don&#039;t want to think I&#039;m jaded, but right now I don&#039;t want to love anymore. I don&#039;t want to give anyone else the chance to hurt my heart so much that it&#039;s hard to breath. I&#039;m happy for those who find love, after the experiences that I&#039;ve had I&#039;d rather just be by myself than give it another try.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m just tired.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks for letting me vent! :)&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Right on, Fish!  I was confused by the &#039;When did this happen?&#039;/&#039;How long did it last&#039; comments. As if it mattered.  The when and how were not relevant to your post.  For the record, I&#039;m a damn cynical person and an active misanthrope, but I never doubted for a second that he cared about you or that your feelings and subsequent heartbreak were not genuine.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p&gt;Like I said earlier, I was embroiled in a very awkward situation that ended badly.  One of my friends questioned whether what he and I had was significant.  Her doubt hurt me more than his behavior. Assuming I cared more for him than he did for me, I still fail to see how it made my devastation any less valid.  Same goes for you.  Hang in there.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
