Why do we get hurt?I have mused over this question for quite sometime now.The amount of heartbreaks I see around me presents a much more sorrier sight than the relief and the happiness in the contented hearts...so what is it that actually causes a heartbreak?many days of introspection and silent pondering I have probably figured it out...it’s expectation.it is the expectation,it is what we desire from a certain relationship that attaches the element of pain onto it.the people involved don’t manage to live upto each other’s expectation,things start going awry and before even realization can dawn on one’s consideration the damage inflicted on the relationship is irrepairable.
Maybe,one of my friend’s approach to deal with relationships is the best.he believes that no matter how dear a person is to you there must still exist some “distance”(if he is to be quoted) between them.this would give each their own “space” and then you can be bonded warmly into any relationship without risking your emotional health.it’s true probably...so the bottomline is
for the sake of smooth blossoming of any relation

we should not venture into it’s forbidden lengths.

keep expectations out of the question and

enjoy every little sweetness that any association has to offer.

....Easier said than done though

you are so right my friend! expectaton is definitely it! my heart's been broken 2x in the past 2 years, all due to my expectations of where the relationship was leading....and when they did not go where i expected, i was crushed! i wish i could learn "distance" i get far too attatched and sentimental.....great post.

An impractical lesson that one must take back. Where there are emotions involved expectations will be there no matter how we hard not to delve into them. Just one of those things that we can’t do without.

Hurt comes when you keep expectations wit the person u love and if you dont keep expectations with the person u love, then with whom ? and if u dont, then is it love ? wot abt the cravings of the inner self ?

a vicious cycle you see . very complex, very innate and too rigid to understand, but yes life goes on. hurts happen, they get cured, people reunite and move on.

at times hurt remains, ppl drift, move on and catch new people. and the cycle continues!!!
