I want to thank everyone who stopped to answer this question... this episode wouldn't be possible without YOU. Thank you for your kindness in stopping to hear me out and your braveness in answering the question. I try to put as many answers as I can in the episode, however, not every answer goes on the page. Please know that if your answer is not in the episode, it does not take away from the importance of your story. There are many outside variables that determine the order and answers that go in the episode. Things like duration, flow, variety in answers, ensuring a diverse range of voices, overall feel of an episode, and sometimes background noise, or other audio and visual problems. I love you all. Thank you ❤

The first guy.. I really applaud him admitting what he had done to lose that girl. That is honesty !!

Damn, he said it. Self sabotage because it’s easier on your ego.

20 years ago, I would have answered that there was one that got away - but - 10 years ago, I reconnected with her and it quickly became clear that she was not 'the one'.
I had romanticized the memory of her over the years - but reality had a different story to tell. Sometimes I miss having the belief that she is perfect and out there somewhere - because it was a nice place to drift off to in my mind. Maybe you could say that 'belief in romance' is the one that got away.

Mine, she didn't get away; she died. I love you Maria. Whatever, forever.

Meeting the right person at the wrong time can be the hardest thing about this life.

The one that got away is always the hardest to think about, if only because it's all full of "what if?"s

The one that got away was my husband. Our marriage was breaking from all the regular pressures of life. He got a shoulder injury and ended up addicted to pain meds. They caused him to behave differently. He had an affair for 6 months with a co worker, when he broke it off she told he she was pregnant. We divorced. Our kids were age 3 and 8. I raised them alone while he was in the throes of addiction. They had no relationship with him as I would not allow it. I however stayed in touch from a distance. I told him he could come home if he got clean. It took him 8 years. We remarried and our kids are 18 and 23. One is pre-med and the other in film school. He’s been clean ever since. People aren’t perfect. We all make mistakes and bad choices. I forgave him because I love him and I know that he quit on himself not us. So I made him fight for us to find himself.

Seeing people from such a close perspective visually, just makes you realize all the little ways people are so beautiful

It's crazy how people don't know how beautiful they are. To see them portrayed this way out in the sunshine. We see ourselves in camera and mirror but it never captures the raw beauty when someone is expressing themselves telling a story sharing who they are. The little nuances of how they speak and their smiles and emotions in their gaze. I'm probably beautiful, and I don't know it. We can never see ourselves this way, as someone else can.We're so used to our own face.

When I look back on "the one that got away" from my life, I realize that they actually weren't healthy for me, and it's good that they're gone.

Wow when that person said she didn’t think she was good enough for the guy she let go- oof. I felt that deep in my heart.

When you’re young you think you have your entire life to meet “the one” but in reality true connection only happens once, maybe twice if you’re lucky. Or sometimes not at all.

My husband and I were both each other's one who got away. We met at 18, got engaged at 19, broke up at 20, lived separate lives for a decade and then reconnected a few months before COVID hit. I was working down in NYC, and he was up in Vermont, where he's from. When remote work made it possible I came up for a "visit" ... and never left. A few years later, now both 34, we tied the knot on the mountain where we live together. You never ever know what life will bring. 💛

Thanks for collecting and sharing these stories. So beautiful!

“ be vulnerable, just risk it . Its scary it hurts but its alot easier to deal with knowing you said what needed to be said as opposed to hiding behind false words to protect your own ego… it makes it alot more easier to live with.” 1:19

Spanish saying about respecting the autonomy of the person we love:
If you love someone, let him go
If he comes back, his love is yours.
If he doesn't come back, he never loved you at all.

This reminds me of a story I saw on a reality show one time about an interracial couple. They were in the military together (white guy and black girl) and she was hesitant to tell him her feelings because of the racial thing and also he was her superior. Years go by after she left the military and she had a dream about she was giving birth to his baby and the baby boy nearly died but miraculously recovered. She couldn't stop thinking about the dream for a long time and it was driving her crazy so much that she looked him up and found his number and called him. He was amazed to hear from her and said he had stayed single all these years and always liked her. They ended up getting married AND the dream of literally happened exactly as she saw it with her baby boy miraculously recovering after nearly dying during the birth.
