LOVE QUOTES - goodbye's and letting go :(

If saying goodbye hurts so much, why do we say goodbye? Because it hurts so much more to keep holding on to something that isn't there. Like you're hanging off a ledge and someone is jumping up and down on your hands but you still can't let go. Like when you're little and you're being tickled...you shout for it to stop because it's torture, but then you go back for more, because somehow being tickled makes you feel safe and special. Holding on is like that...but the torture is painful...and it doesn't make you smile. That's why we're supposed to say goodbye. That's why we're meant to let go

You hug him good-bye like it's nothing... While all you want to do is hold on forever. But you let go, smile and walk away. Then cry all the way home, because you know it will never be the same. Because, try as you might, you can't make someone love you. Sometimes you have to let them be free. And letting go... That is when love hurts the most of all

Goodbyes hurt the most when people leave without saying them

Sometimes there are things in our life that aren't meant to stay. Sometimes change may not be what we want. Sometimes change is what we really need. And sometimes saying goodbye is the hardest thing you think you'll ever have to do, but sometimes it's saying 'hello again' that breaks you down and makes you the most vulnerable person you'll ever know. Sometimes change is too much to bear, but most of the time change is the only thing saving your life.

I've learned that goodbyes will always hurt, pictures never replace having been there, memories, good or bad, will bring tears and words can never replace feelings.

you have no idea what it feels like to go every day feeling like your missing something


It’s the loneliest feeling in the world - to find yourself standing up when everyone else is sitting down. To have everybody look at you and say what’s the matter with her?? I know what it feels like. Walking down an empty street, listening to the sound of your own footsteps. Shutters closed, blinds drawn, doors locked against you. And you aren’t sure whether you’re walking toward something, or if you’re just walking away

It’s like I realized that way down inside, I’ve always been lonely for something. But I don’t know what for. It’s like everybody in the world wants something only they never really know exactly what it is - they just keep finding out what it’s not. You know how, when you turn off the TV or you come out of some concert, and everything just feels…empty? Like you thought that would be what you wanted, and then it wasn’t

It's sad when someone you know becomes someone you knew.

I'm wishing that someday, you'll miss me terribly that no matter how hard you'll look for me, you wouldn't find me...because I want you to miss me the same way I'm missing you.

sometimes you hate them because it hurts too much to love them

I didn’t give up… I just turned my eyes away from eyes that couldn’t look into mine. I'm trying to protect all that's left of a heart

I loved you; it's not that I fell out of love with you because that would be impossible. I just couldn't handle the heartache anymore. It's not that I don't love you, it's that I can't.

I see him, but he sees past me. I look in his eyes but he looks around me. Does he know what I see when he stares through me? I see him and I can't help watching him, not watching me.

They say if you love someone you should let them go, but they never say what to do when they don’t come back

The worst thing a guy can do to a girl is make her fall for him with no intentions of catching her

I forgot what it was like to cry. I forgot that pretending to be happy doesn't make you happy. I forgot that you can't just forget the past in fear of the future. I forgot that you can't control falling in love and that you can't make yourself fall in love. I learned that I can love. I learned that sometimes the things you want most you just can't have

You'll never know pain until you look into the eyes of someone you love and they look away.

You'll never know how much I miss you. You won’t see it in my face. You'll never know that I'll never find another guy that could take your place...'Cause I'll be smiling when I see you. No, my tears won't ever show. I might always love you, but you're never going to know.

I remember the day that you asked me to let you go. You were slowly walking away and I asked "wasn't my love good enough?" then you turned around and said, "No…it was too much”

It has to be hard to watch someone you love change before your very eyes and know you can't do anything about it, but it must be heartbreaking to remember the way they once were.

Love is like an eclipse; if you wait for it long enough, it's bound to happen... but you have to wonder if it's worth it, because it just leaves you in the dark!

People always say to follow your heart but what they don't tell you…is that, just because you follow your heart, it doesn't mean there'll be a happy ending.

Have you ever fallen in love, but knew they did not care? Have you ever felt like crying, but knew you'd get nowhere? Have you ever watched them walk away, not wanting them to go? And whispered 'I love you' softly, not wanting them to know? You cried all night in misery and almost went insane. There's nothing in this world that causes so much pain.

Look around you, hearts change; I know they do.

It's amazing how much somebody can break your heart and still you love them with every broken piece of it.

I wish I was a little kid again, scraped knees are easier to fix than broken hearts.

The only thing that hurts more than a broken heart is knowing, if you had the choice to do it all over again, you would.
