A male United States age 26-29, *antspaintogoaway writes:

I just turned seventeen this week.

I met a girl over the summer and fell in love with her. Just the way she looked at me and the way she would smile just blew me away. a month and a half into the relationship I lost my virginity to her, wasn't planning on it but it happened.

On our three months I invited her over for a surprise when my parents were out of town.

She walked into a candle-lit dining room with music and everything. We danced together in the living room and made love that night. One of the most amazing nights of my life.

I treated her like an angel. I would surprise her with her favorite drinks, I would look into her eyes and say" I love you more than anything"

"There's nowhere I'd rather be then right here, with you."

We were so in love. I viewed her as my angel, my everything.

But i guess it wasn't enough.

I remember the exact date she broke up with me. I couldn't bare over the thought of living without her. I had nothing left. I was dating her for 6 months and then she just breaks it off.

I made her happier than she's ever been, she said. But was it not enough?

Sometimes when a relationship ends, it really isn't because you did anything wrong, it might not have anything to do with you. Even if you do everything right, it still doesn't work out. That's sad, and maybe sad for her too, but it is comforting to know you have it your best shot, and you were the best you could be with her, and that you had an amazing time together.

Part of a famous quote goes "It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." Maybe your light shone a little to bright for her to handle. Don't use that as a reason to diminish the brightness with which you shine. Keep on shining.

C. Grant agony auntThere should be no regrets when you're sure you gave it your all. You're a romantic, and you did it up right. For now it seems like the outcome sucked. Later you'll be able to look back with pride. Keep that romantic spark burning in your soul, because one day the right girl will know by that treatment she's found *the one*.

Good on ya, man!

BeautyOfTragedies agony auntIt seem to me you are truly an amazing guy. I understand you loved her but you are simply to smart and way to good of a man to ask your self such a silly question. YOU have done more than any girl can ask for believ me .The fact that you ask yourself this question is very caring of you to try to justify what she did by putting youself to blame but truly you are a sweet guy and you'll soon come to realize there is better out there waiting for youand that girl will appreciate every lil thing you do for them.

I wish you the best in life(:

You did everything right, more than a girl could possibly ask for. Maybe there was more to the break up than you think, or maybe she viewed it differently than you. She will definitely look back and know that you were the one that made her the happiest she's ever been like she said. So dont get too upset because she could always have just needed some time to sort out what she wants then come back to you, since you both have a big life ahead of you. If not, then you'll always have your memories with her, just try not to dwell and hide you hurt, otherwise the heartbreak you feel wont go away and could affect your future relationships with another girl you could be just as happy with, if not more.

I hope everything works out for you! It seems as if any girl would be lucky to be with you.

Good luck (:

MissTellAll agony auntYou did everything you could- more than that actually! From what it sounds like you were wonderful to her. Maybe she isn't in a place where she wants a relationship, maybe she's just immature and thinks she'll find something better. Regardless, know that it isn't a reflection on you. Don't let that romanticism get lost because of your broken heart. Find someone new to love, make her your angel (though make sure you don't come on too strong too quickly) give her your everything. If she's good enough she'll give you everything in return.

But what you did for her was really sweet, I'm sure she'll regret losing you.

You're both young and it's rare for teenage relationships to last all that long, but don't let that put you off. You did nothing wrong, maybe it was just a bit too much for her, a little bit too serious. Don't let it get you down though, because you're experienced and more confident now. There will be loads more, and you will feel these wonderful feelings again :D
