A year ago, I met a really great guy just out of the blue. I was visiting my home town for a friends wedding and he was working there for a few months on contract. We exchanged numbers and two months later he asked me to visit him for a weekend. We really connected. I think I fell in love with him then. Everything was just perfect. I saw him again a month later and then he had to go away because of problems with his work permit. We kept in touch and reunited again after 7 months and it was like we hadn't even been apart. He was still staying in another town so we had to go back and forth. We could only spend weekends together because he was working and I also working. Anyway about a month of him getting back I found out I had to travel to another country on another continent very far away. The last weekend we spent together, I expected him to propose but he didn't, God knows why. I could really feel a connection with this guy that I had never felt before and I know he was in love with me too and kept telling me how I had changed his life and how connected he also felt. Anyway we said goodbye promising to keep in touch. That was just over a month ago. I have been calling him but he never calls me back even though he texts. Before I left he had told me that I would probably meet someone here and forget about him which is not true. Anyway its like he just decided things couldn't work because I was leaving and it's like he is just giving up on us. I feel very sad because I love this man and it's really hard for me to move on now. I dream about him almost every night. I keep questioning why I had to meet him. I was convinced he would be my husband one day. I'm trying really hard to let go but it hurts so much. I don't know why I had to meet him. They say all things happen for a reason and you must learn from them but am finding it hard to see the lesson behind this. I wish I could go back to the moment before we met and skip my regret. Has this ever happened to someone else? You are so perfect together yet things just can't work out..

I think we have all been in relationships that didn't work out. You need to move on.
