So in the movie with Tate Donaovan and Sandra Bullock, there a scene where a hooker(speelled it right?)anyway a hooker accidently sprays the potion in her mouth and Tate donovan gives her everything she asks for after the potion wears off, he has nothing left in his appartment, and he feels like an idiot! So I guess my friends,, I am having that moment,,,, What the fuck was I thinking giving a lying cheating , fake promising, beath breath asshole so many chances???? Wow I feel stupid!

We are not supposed to give up easily. That's why. You did what you had to do. You should feel satisfied that you did everything you could, even if it looks senseless now.

I too gave the ex many....many....too many...chances.....even after I knew it was over and not salvagable by any means....why??? I wish I knew......but don't beat yourself up for it....giving up on someone is very hard to to, and giving up on my marriage and calling if over is the hardest thing I've ever done.

I used to get mad at myself for learning things the hard way and not having all the answers when I needed them.

I have learned in the past few months that everyone screws up/acts stupid once in a while.

All we can do is try to do better in the future.
I know that sounds pretty basic, but it was concept that I took a long time to accept.
