broken and can't be fixed.. part 2 | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/10/08

This song haunts me so bad...just like the memories that I have of her. Every day I wake up I miss her so much, but I know that it's lost. I wish that I was a better person or that I could wipe it all away...the pain of losing her, knowing that she will never be in my arms again and even more that she will be in someone elses arms totally wrecks me. Ppl say that it just takes time but I know that even when I'm dead and gone my bones will ache from losing her. When ever I go to sleep now I always hope that I will dream of her and that we are together and we are happy again...and I hope that I would never wake up from that dream...but I can't and she's gone, that's why I'm broken. </3

A letter to him | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/5/08

Hey,
I love you. Yeah, I know that telling you this is stupid and pointless. We bring so much stress to each other's lives, but I just want to be there for you and help you through all your problems. Sometimes, I just wish that you would wake up and realize that we are perfect for each other. I want to be that best friend you never had. You are such an amazing, giving, caring person. And every morning I have to wake up remembering that you have told me that you hate me. But I know you don't. I know that you would miss me more you than you think you would. And when you go to study abroad next year, you will realize it. I am so tired of the games we have to play. I just....love you.

aching, not broken | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/31/08

just reading your reviews gives me some hope that at least i've loved and almost lost. i've loved this guy from the first time we kissed and he's the most understanding person that i've ever met and is the truest blessing that has been given to me. as young as i still am, i truly felt that this was love. then after thirty months of the best relationship in the world, we had to end it in sacrifice for something we believe in and promised that we would return to each other once everything clears up, until a certain former "crush" came back into my heart. i'm a firm believer of "never lose the one you love over someone you like, because the one you like will leave you for the one that they love" and they are both great guys, but from the time we broke up i've felt nothing but that FRIEND feeling and i've been falling for the former guy. they are both great guys, but what to do? i keep hurting the one i loved and i don't know how to stop my heart from splitting. it's hard to think of one person, when the other great one is also on my mind.

To be honest, I'm not one to really pour my feelings out on the internet. But this song just makes me tear up when I hear it. I met this boy in seventh grade. Let's call him.. sdp. I met sdp in seventh grade and i remember the first words i said to him. "uhh.. i think i corrected your assignment wrong." When i was in seventh grade all of my friends went to a different middle school than me and so i had almost no friends at this new school. Sdp sat behind me in math class and those words were the first things i ever said to him. I'm not gonna lie. He laughed at me like i was a loser. As it turned out, I had three classes with sdp. Math english and social studies. I also had all six classes with one of his best friends. I became friends with his friend and so i started kinda walking in the halls with him and talking to him some. After our first test in math, i got 100%. Sdp... well lets just say he didn't do so well. After he saw my test he was like wow you need to help me with my homework. This was in october. So months went on.. and every day my teacher would give us extra time to work on homework at the end of the period. Every day sdp would come over to my desk and say, "can you help me?" So by this time it is about march and i finally tell my friend.. I think i like him. And she was like omg i think he likes you too! So for another couple months it was just ehh until may when we were iming and my friend asked steven who he liked. He said he liked me and the next day he asked me out. I said yes and for five months about we went out. Then eighth grade came and he started flirting with other girls. I told him how he never talked to me anymore and he was like whatever.. and so in november i broke up with him. Then i ignored him for 4 months and he would always be like.. why do you hate me? Why are you mad? What's wrong? And i just wouldn't answer. Eventually, I said something to him in PE. He got so excited he talked for the whole period. Then at the end he was like let's talk tonight. And so we talked and he told me that he only flirted with other girls because he thought i didn't like him anymore and he wanted to make me jealous. It worked obviously, but he took it too far. So we just kinda ended the conversation with the infamous ily and talked bits and pieces every now and again. We then did track together and one night he imed me and was like who do you like? and i was like i dunno.. who do you like? He was like you and i was like oh i like you too. So we ended the conversation with 'i love you' and hung out a little after that. Two weeks later he texts me and is like, i think we should just be friends.. and of course i was like.. ok.. but if only he could have seen just how sad i was. i cried. So after that we really didn't talk until the last day of school when i went up to him and was like.. hey will you sign my yearbook? and he wrote in it. he talked about our ups and downs but how he was glad we were still friends. He gave it back to me and gave me a hug and said we should hang out this summer. Well summer turned to fall and i started talking to him again. He sent me a text message about two months into school telling me to just stop talking to him. I did.. but i was so sad. Then later that week my appendix burst and i went to the ER and didn't come to school for two weeks because i had surgery on it. My bestfriend (who lives across the street from me) became really good friends with him this year because they have tons of classes together. So they were working on a project a week and a half after my surgery and sdp said hey do you think she's home? And my friend said.. i dunno lets go see! And so they came over and he just kinda stood there and looked at me and me and my friend talked a lot. They left because i had an appointment but i went back to school that week and the day i got back he said omg come here! and he gave me a huge hug. Well after that we kinda had this odd friendship where he would kiss me on the cheek sometimes.. and last week it just got a little awkward when he told me he liked me. To be h
onest, I have liked him ever since seventh grade, but i didn't say anything back. We hung out a couple times after that but now my best friend (across the street) says she knows something that he told her and that it's not bad but she won't tell me because he told her not to tell. I really just with i knew what it was.. i think i do.. but I don't want to get my hopes up. My heart's been broken by him twice and i don't know if i can really handle another disappointment. Until i find out..

I'm just dreaming with a broken heart. :[

I'm broken and it can't be fixed... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/29/08


I met a girl, an amazing girl...we became friends and fell in love. I loved her and she loved me whole heartedly. We were best friends and we each found comfort in each other's arms. It's like all the troubles we had b4 we met each other were vanishing into thin air because we somehow fixed each other's lives. I can honestly say that I've never loved anyone quite this way...and I don't think I ever will. We aren't together anymore...it's a long story...but I still love her and I know she still loves me... I guess that's why it's such a heartbreaker. Each day it's like I lose a little bit more of myself...that crack in my heart gets a little bit deeper and wider. I wish I could sit down and cry and have it be all over...or even that I had never met her...but even tho it hurts more than any pain I've ever felt...I'd never trade in any of it because even tho our time together was short...it was incredible...she came into my life and for a brief time we were the happiest that anyone could ever wish to be. But now it's done and I'll never forget or stop loving her so that's why I'll never be right with this world and living in it will be a torture because she'll always have my heart and my love. T_T

regret | Reviewer: anonymous | 1/27/08

My freshmen year I met this guy Joey..he was a senior at the time and obviously more mature. We were in an extracurricular activity together and spent 11+ hours a week together. I never expected anything to come out of our relationship, I never gave him a second glance. As time passed, we grew closer and closer. It started with convo's into inside jokes to long talks on the phone at night. He was the first close guy friend I had and I was so confused and till today am confused if I love him as a best friend or more than that. Despite our 4 year age difference our relationship grew deeper than ever. We would literally talk 3 hours every single night talking about nonsense laughing, crying, bitching whatever. Everyone at school knew we were good friends and his friends would always tease him for hanging out with a freshmen girl. After only a couple short monthes I got mad at him because he was giving more attention to another girl and i was immature. He was worried and did anything to be straight with me and even apologized. We promised that we would never get into another stupid fight. So our phone talks continued every single day until 1 or 2 at night and we ALWAYS said i love you before hanging up. Spring came and for some reason something happened between us..I don't even remember the reason whatsoever and I ignored him for 4 monthes. Inside i was hurting soo bad and wanted to apologize but my pride got into the way. He would peep into my 2nd period classroom everyday and chat wtih friends gave me a glance then went to class. I continued to ignore him and everyone asked me why I was giving him so much shit. Spring turned to summer and Joey was going to graduate. I panicked because i couldn't let things end this way and prepared at home what I would write in his yearbook. Suprisingly he asked to sign my yearbook first. We exchanged and we wrote our notes. I received mine back and opened it...It was two pages long and I couldn't even make it into the 3rd sentence without breaking down. We had so many good memories and my tears just couldn't hold back. We talked right before his graduation and worked somethings out. At his grad I couldn't take it any longer and I hugged him. It felt so natural to be in his arms again..It was so normal. I couldn't stop crying and we laughed foor being so foolish to ignore eachother for 4 monthes!! He went to his grad night and then called me the next day. I thought things were going well until one day he IMed me and told me to have a nice life. He kind of just ended our frienship and never spoke to me again..I don't know why it was the randomest thing ever. Not knowing what to do..I couldn't make myself contact him so we just left our relationship broken.. I'm a junior now but i think about him every single day. I know its crazy but we had more than just a frienship. I dont' know how to explain it but I've never loved someone as much as I loved Joey. He understood me in every aspect and was always there for me. It's been 2 1/2 years since i've spoken to him. He's in college now and I still miss him more than ever. Every second of every day my mind is telling me to give up on him but my heart can't. I know that nothing will ever be the same, so why am i still waiting?

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?

it may be long but readd | Reviewer: Daniella | 1/20/08

True story

so in 5th grade this new boy came to our school....every single girl in our school was crazy over him. yes i would have to adimit he was the hottest guy ever..anyway i was pretty popular...not in a mean way..me and about 15 girls? were the popular girls...i didnt really care about all this guy stuff then as much as the mean popular girls..i was more quiet..always shy....tom boy? and i was the only blond one of the bunch....the rest of my friends were all brunet..tan..pretty...(but uglyish faces)
anyway he happened to be in my class...he walked in the first day...me and my friend Monica were crazy about him..same with everyone else... but we had notice about him that he was coming to our school because all of our other friends that went to a near by schools--he came from there so we got a call before he came saying "omg daniella theirs this new guy coming to ure school his names Julian..hes coming from our schol!" so that day he came to school..and he happened to be sitting right next to me and Monica! omggg!! but i new he wasnt even guna notice me..all my friends had their boyfriends or crush and they were all prety.i was different
anyway he was so cute..tanish..light brown shaggy straight hair (not that long)..bakwards hat..black basketball shorts..white shirt..and brown eyes with thick eyelashes that close over...and his white smile that he showed all the time
a few days passed and we began convos with hiim (akward) and he would start flirting with me often it was weird..and 2 days later he asked me out..he said he loved me and everything..i didnt get it..he liked me because i was different..he ignored every other girl...on this occasion for our school at night (games nigiht) he took me around everywere..won me prizes...and made me play this game with him..he held me and hugged me..he was so more ready to be a bf than any guy in our whole school...he was so different...anyway my friends hated me.. of course..but they still loved me i guess (: julian always wanted his friends to meat me..they were so hott! but his friends that were girls..i already knew cuz theyve been my friends form the school...(including all my school friends)
a month passed..i was still always shy with julian but he wasnt with me..so it was akward..when i held his hand..my face turned friend and i was shaking... it was little kids relationship..u no wat i mean?
so the next couple days/weeks i was noticing that i wasnt liking him anymore..i felt uncomfurtable around him..and he got a buzz cut which for some reason..really made me ehhh (it was little kid relationship! u understand!?!?!?) so i dumped him..i was with my friends at jamba and i said "julian can we just be friends..ok bye" it was wat every 5th grader said...duhh.. but he responded with.."why why wat happened? wat happened..did i do something" next day atshool...."daniella talk" please pelase? he mouthed the words "i love u" the whole next wat 2 weeks of school? one time our whole class was standing out there doing these video tapes..litsening to a speech from our teacher..i look over with my friend monnica..and jullian was standing their in gaze with his eyes watering up and he looked over and mouthed the words "i love u" but i was still kind of scared of him...it was weird feeling...we went through weird phases...and the end of 5th grade we started becoming friends again..different relationship...then 6th grade came fun fun times...julian would always laf with me... in class he would steal my fone or when the teacher left he would call me and we would be looking at eachother lafing on the fone..he would always still hug me ( would sometimes feel akward...it was still weird then but sometimes we had good times cuz were young) he would hold me and hug me (not in a gf/bf way) and he gave me his sweatshirts when i was cold and everything..then 7th grade came...nothing akward anymore..we were mature..and had the best times ever..he treated me like a guy in a way..and i treated him as a girl...he started flirting with other girls but then he would always come back to me and hold me and swing me in the air or watever..we would laff like crazy all the way through 8th grade...8th grade... he always "forgot" his lunches so i would always come prepared to share with him mine..i would do the little thing when i put something on the spoon and did zoommm zooommm into his mouth...imature fun times... haa well all the pretty popular girls/my friends/ best friends..would just watch us then leave with all the rest of the popular hot guys...i didnt mind...if julian never came to my school...i would be a whole different person...i would sit alone..eating my lunches by myself...i wouldnt laf 24/7..i wouldnt have someone to hug me and swing me in the air.....i would be a shy...akward...self consious girl who tagged along with my popular friends and all their stupid popular bfs... thank god julian came...
we had the best times of our lives....
on our 8th grade field trip overnight..our whole grade went outside at night to look through telescopes to the stars with our teachers..but they couldnt really see us so my (best friend) isabel would flirt and role away with her bf on the grass...me and julian would laff and stargaze as i lay on his stomache..we would keep craking up...and as i lay there star gazing i brought up this funny thing remebering us in 6th grade..and i laffed and said "daniellai love u.. then kissed me on the cheek..i said in my head "omg.." but i kept on smiling and looked him in the eyes and took a deep look in to his eyes in the silence and said i love u to..then of course the teachers found all us goofing off and said come on go litsen to the speech about stars!!
(still 8th grade)
we always rolled around.. and he would jump on me and then hold me in his arms...
every day he would call me and say im walking up to ure house (of course i wouldnt be there..): then every school day in 8th grade after all of our classes he would look like crazy for me..like he was stressed then he would run and smile and do his funyn ffaces that i loved...in history...we were partners for our project...
i would go to his football games.. i would go with my friends..monica..riko...nika.....aya...jennifer...lauren..(all those popular clicky girls but at the same time my firneds..?0 yeh and they would all run around everywhere looking for hot guys like "omg im so cool" and when i was little i would follow them around....

feeling sad and left out and alone


but there i was not giving a sh*t..i waved to julian..and and he would do this huge smile and put out his arms like he was strong..and i would laff...then his coach would get mad...good times good times..ha

then after i would wait outside his locker room and we would wait to be picked up..i was the only girl there so all the guys would say heyy to me and all that..and then julian would say guys stop..and then i would smile like uhh ok?
julian and i sat there waiting..then i spit my gum at him cuz he was calling me names. then he takled me.. (: then of course my ...friends?" would come by and stare..was it jelousy? they gave me this sassy look..like pretty brunets are prettier..made me feel different cuz i was..i dont no...blonde and all this

oh by the way julian would always make fun of me iwth all his friends for being blonde..and he would always say ure moms hot.."were gunna make babies one day" im like eww u perve and he would laf...
so pretty much could u say....MY LIFE WOULD BE DEAD IF JULIAN DIDNT COME TO MY SCHOOL THAT ONE DAY!!!

soo after all this best friends stuff...julien started flirting iwth other girls...and ignoring me. .but then a month later he owuld go back to normal and be with me..but then like things were different...i was feeling different around him..he would switch me around...i was so confused..one day he was completly iwth me...the next he was like yeh ok hi daniella...so he apolagized but it still didnt change it back to normal................so i ignored him and he would keep coming up to me and hugging me on the side like when i was ordering sandwhiches after school and stuff...... then i really became mean to him cuz of wat he did to me and stuff.....i would go off with my friend isabel like i didnt even see julian...he came up to me and the group of my friends..and jennifer..the girl he HOOKED UP WITH a few days before and i said ok lets go

so i got really mad at him....those days...i hung out iwth my gfs in stead (its been a whilee) i would tell everyone at school "EVERYONE ITS NATIONAL IGNORE JULIAN DAY OK!!" and i did he would shout my name in the way he used to always do....i ignored like i didnt hear anything..and he would slow up....he kept saying "daniella....wat did i do! u cant do this to me" and he did something i never thought he would do..he grabbed me away from me and all my girlfiendsat lunch recess and said "can i atleast talk to u over here for a second?"

then i did it....i said
"IM not ure FRIEND ANYMORE JULIAN! u Cant do this to me! all of the sudden ure hooking up and making out with all these girls....ure likea whole different person! its over just dont talk to me anyyyymore!"
then he stood their shocked and said "u break my heart"

and when we were in class in history Of course we sat next to eachother cuz we were still partners...we both had the school laptops on cuz i had to im him pictures of the project we were doing....it was akward...it was different...no laffing anymore..no hugging...no funny faces...i felt like ilost someone...he would im me and instead of the hw and say "y are u mad at me" and i would pretend to ignore it....with my friend nika...

so hear i am freshman (not much after our sad ending)...julian is the quarterback in football....he hooks up with girls....most of my girlfirends i have lost..because they are all over him...he has them instead i guess hes good...
but now i feel my life is not complete....

i feel like my life has ended..and im only freshman..
i walk around by myself...i cry every night...i cant fall asleep...
one time i ment to say hi to my firned and by accident clicked his sn and said hi and he said back "ooo soo u can talk to me on aim but not in person anymore..wow daniella ure cool..and just act at school..."do i no you" so yeh hes out of my life...its all gone.........
im depressed every day at school...i used to be alike a happy little girl with him...but now its scary...its all gone. everything.
):

but yesterday i happened to be lookin at his math binder....and the drawing that we made in the begining of 8th grade was still there...it had a school picture of me in it.....maybe hes too lazy to take it out? and it said "Daniella and Julian best friends for ever no matter what"


the first line..."so in 5th grade this new boy came to our school........"




This is what my life is like.....now:

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The waking up is the hardest part
You roll outta bed and down on your knees
And for the moment you can hardly breathe
Wondering was she really here?
Is she standing in my room?
No she's not, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

When you're dreaming with a broken heart
The giving up is the hardest part
She takes you in with her crying eyes
Then all at once you have to say goodbye
Wondering could you stay my love?
Will you wake up by my side?
No she can't, 'cause she's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone....

comment this...wat should i do..this is a true story...wat did i do with my life.....i may be a model now for stores...but i could care less about that..i feel like my best friend.....died...

broken...for good. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/13/08

I've never cried over a boy, but this boy makes me cry every night... I met this boy, in the summer, he was my friends friend. He is what you call a "player", but when he met me, he wanted a relationship. He told his friends that I was "the one", and everybody at his school knew of me. They were all happy that he finally wanted to comit. We always hung out, and got in trouble together :P I was the happiest I have ever been. He was the sweetest thing to me, funny, fun to be with, popular, ugh, he was perfect. </3... I even applied to his school, just to be with him. He went away for about 3 weeks, and thats when i met a bunch of his friends. Everybody asked me "do you like him?" and i would say "yess :)". When he came back, I went away. We didnt see eachother for most of the summer. There was an "End of the Summer" party. It was one of the funnest nights ever ! But for some reason, me and him didnt talk much. I was really upset, and so was he. About a week after school started (grade 10) I found out that he hooked up with another girl. I was so sad, then he told me that things between us arn't going to work out, I started crying the second he told me. He didnt know that I knew about him and this other girl. That weekend, me, him, 3 of our friends and my best friend went to the movies. It was so akward, and we all knew it. I tried talking to him, but I could tell he wasnt interested in talking to me. A few weeks later, he told his friends that me and him did all this stuff, he made me sound "easy", he lied, and started romors about me. Why? How could he do that? I was and am stll totally heart broken. He has a girlfriend now. Everybody says I am prettier then her, just to make me feel better, I guess he doesn't think so... Its been 4 mounths since I last talked to him, it hurts so badly. I cant tell my friends that I am and will never be over him, they would get mad and tell me all the horrible things he did to me, I just cant help it. I've tried to move on, I just can't. I am waiting for him </3

I know, i never thought I would fall inlove with a guy at this age. I never really knew what love was, or what it felt like. I do know now. And it hurts. I cry everynight, and lots of mornings. He is the first I think about at the begining of the day, and the last. I've had dreams about him, and this song is what I think of when I wake up from a dream of him.

*sigh*... I'll wait </3

The giving up is the hardest part...

Sleepwalking | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/11/08

"When you're dreaming with a broken heart, the waking up is the hardest part."

This line is so true for me, not just literally, but metaphorically.

I walk around every day acting like everything is fine and i actually feel like everything is fine most of the time, but every once in a while I'll still think about him..... I'll "wake up"...and it's so hard to get back to sleep. to start feeling like everything is ok again.

This song is amazing.
I could never have said it better.
and even though it makes me want to cry every time i hear it, i can't help listening to it over and over again.

Great song... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/11/08

so i recently was with this girl that i really like and we were cool until i realized that shes not there for me and shes still with her ex and stuff happened.. i can relate to this song

For What It's Worth... | Reviewer: The Real | 1/10/08

For all those that have lost loved ones in Death, my Heart goes out to you, also for the soldiers' partners left at home. Everyone, get a grip! A relationship is broken for a reason.
As for the song, it's almost perfect and for me, changing one word would have made greater, more brutal impact. Changing 'them' to 'there', in the Roses paragraph signifies wanting to end the pain of emptiness in his life, but he doesn't quite embark on that path. I think Mayer contemplated it, mind.

Good song, shame he didn't go all out.

Broken hearted | Reviewer: Joe | 1/8/08

After a combined 25 years of dating and marriage - 8 years dateig and 17 married I recenty became seperated and the pains are still fresh. This song yet depressing is how i feel- Sometimes I dont wanna sleep only knowing what I desire may be in my head but on arising she wont be there. I have a great relationship still with her and I was blessed with a son . We became like 2 ships passing in the night-as toughas it is on me I wish her nothing but happiness-happiness that somehow she no longer found with me .


well | Reviewer: anonymous | 1/4/08

i can't really say my heart is broken cuz it isn't but it feels like it is. ok so here's the story i met this girl online she lives in a different state than i do..and so we started talking and i saw pictures of her i talk to her on the phone, and honestly i really like her..and so there was a problem i had a gf, so i was honest with my gf and we broke up..the other girl and i started talking and i told her how i felt, and it just happened that she felt the same exact way, so i can sorta relate to this because as much as i want her to be here with me and anything i do for her to be here with me, she's not gonna be here. so i guess my heart sorta is broken cuz i'm never gonna be able to be with her.

still regretting | Reviewer: CaliNonymous | 1/3/08

I was with my ex for 6 years (on and off for the last year) and now, 6 years later I'm still regretting my decision to walk away. Although I'm married now with two beautiful kids... I can't help but remember what we had and the choices I made. I still talk to and email him, just as friends.. But I can tell he still cares.. And I can't let on what I feel deep down. I've made my bed and now I must sleep in it. You dont know what you've got until it's gone... How true, how cliché ... So I'm not going to make that same mistake again.. And hold on to what I've got, and try to let go of the past. This song just conjures up so many good memories and bittersweet feelings.

Something Different. | Reviewer: Danni | 12/31/07

Here's a slightly different take on the song.
My husband left 2 days ago for a 15 month deployment to Afghanistan. My heart is not broken because *he* broke it... but because I can't be near him. I can't hold him. I can't kiss him. What's worse is, I know exactly what I need to fix my broken heart, and still can't have it.
After falling asleep next to him everynight and waking up with him every morning. Nights are the hardest, but mornings are a very close second.
Waking up, to another day, of pretending everything's alright... when really- my bestfriend, and husband, is at war. I won't see him, or touch him, for FIFTEEN months. So instead, I'll see him, touch him, kiss him, in my dreams.
I wake up in tears because I dreamt of him... and need him there in the morning. Like he was last week. "But [he] can't. Cause [he]'s gone, gone, gone, gone, gone."
