    Wishing you the best at what must be a tough time.
    You already know it, but as others have said, it DOES get better so just plug n' chug.
    Down the road you WILL be able to look back and say, "GD, that really blew donkey balls" and you'll be right, but you'll do it more from a position of comfort and security.

    Don't try to outhink everything, don't try to what-if everything. What is, is.
    Plug. Chug. You'll do fine.

    I'm pretty sure nobody died here guys.
    Except maybe Jesse's faith in love.
    A broken heart is what we are dealing with.

    This, sorry for the confusion.

    Thanks for the thoughtful words.

    Hey Jesse! I knew I was sensing a ripple in the Force. Sorry to hear you've hit a rough patch. A road trip to FL might broaden your horizons? Always welcome here (and my little kids, who used to romp on your lap, are as tall as me now!)

    Losing the love of your life is a terrible feeling Jesse. I know about it first hand. My girlfriend and I haven't talked in about 5 months now. It's a horrible feeling. Only faith in God and my love of music has helped me through. I keep praying we will get back together, but so far to no avail. As I said, I will keep you in my prayers Jesse and my phone is always available if you need to talk, at any time. Friends cannot be a replacement for the love of your life, but hopefully can let you talk about your feelings. Please take care Jesse.

    "I'm yet to hear a Polk speaker that merits more than a sentence and 60 seconds discussion." :\
    My response is: If you need 60 seconds to respond in one sentence, you probably should't be evaluating Polk speakers.....

    I saw my ex last week for the first time in five years. The only thing I can say is "Thank God!" Men age better, especially without guilt. We're here if you need us.

    I've found writing down thoughts and feelings to be hugely effective in gaining clarity, unloading your brain so stuff doesn't circulate endlessly. It's a way of getting to feelings that may be too complicated or painful otherwise.

    Alcohol and drugs, use sparingly. After the high wears off, the situation is remains unchanged, but now you have a hangover too.

    Take care of yourself and use PM to reach out if you need to.

    ^^^This sounds like some pretty good advise Jesse^^^ the next Polkfest is a less than a month away, would be a good place to be among friends and the like minded, hang in there.

    The heart is a muscle and you know what muscles do when they are torn. They grow back stronger. Better scenario for the next vixen Jesse. Go sailing and talk to your pops.

    Jesse, get a Harley! Trust me, you'll never see a Harley parked in front of a therapist's office cause IT IS the best therapy!

    On the flip side, women can really suck alot of times and not in the good way. All ya can do is keep moving forward.
