Yep definitely… but figured it out fairly quickly and ran like hell
We are, each of us angels with only one wing,and we can only fly by embracing one another
I’ve got it figured out now! I have an ICQ number and everything. It’s in my profile. Thanks!
That John Denver’s full of shit man!
Yes. I have. In fact, Kellibelli’s Shitboy sounds a lot like the ex-girlfriend I’m thinking of. Someone who could ignore me whenever she felt like it, but whom I was not allowed to ignore. In fact, this thread was just what I needed right now, because I was starting to slip into one of those dangerous headspaces where you really start to miss someone you once loved, forgetting about all the things that caused you not to love them anymore. I don’t miss her anymore. Thanks a lot!
Heck is where you go when you don’t believe in Gosh.
Like the others, yes. In my last relationship, there was a lag time between my boyfriend started the “I’m going to destroy what we’ve got” behavior and when I realized that was what was actually going on. That period of time was the lonliest I can recall since I was a child.
Once I got a clue that it really was that bad, I broke up with him. It took me months to fully realize just how bad he’d gotten and just how badly he hurt me. 
That was lonely too, but it at least held the hope of getting better.
’ Being alone can actually be quite
nice sometimes. ’
Right on girl!
I can once again only quote my wise old Aunt Ida:
“It’s better to be alone than to wish you were.”
To answer the OP: Yes. It’s happened on both sides of the relationship. Two separate times over the years. I believe that we were both mutually at fault (well, ok, I was a little more at fault than her). I don’t know exactly how it happens, or when you realize it has happened, but once it does, it’s very difficult to overcome. Communication is, as always, the only viable solution. There are no easy answers, though.

Neuro, I was almost falling into that same trap not too long ago. Glad you snapped out of it, too.
Nothing is so bad that it can’t get worse.
Like have you ever been in a relationship where the other person talks so much all the time about anything that you feel alone?
No I haven’t but I’ll sure as hell give a try as an alternative to actually being alone. My ex-girlfriend once said that she never felt so lonely as when she woke up next to someone and felt like she was on her own. At least she had the option.
