In my case, it is not a saving kind of love. She needs no saving. She is happily married with a family and I couldn't be happier for her. It's kinda hard to explain. I fell in love with her years ago but I know I'm not the right guy for her so I am glad she is where she is at. He's a good dude so she belongs with him.
Of course I wish I could love someone who would reciprocate it back to me in the same way but that just doesn't seem to be in the cards. That may change in the future but being middle aged makes it that much harder, that along with a plethora of personal issues. Not trying to make excuses, I just know my limitations and accept them. I'm ok with who I am.

Right, my life is exactly where I put it. No regrets, it is a simple life. Boring but simple. Lol

True, but sometimes the only love you have is what you can give to someone else.
It is also true that most people are special but there are some of us that are nameless, faceless, replaceable, and forgettable. I'm not feeling sorry for myself, I accept my role in this world. For people like me, there is no happy ending but what I can do is try to help someone else be just a bit happier, maybe give one more smile in their life. That is what makes me happy.

I thought he lived in Brooklyn.

It does hurt, but she is happy so I am happy for her.

We do?
