when he was young

An amazing artist & musician. Love all of Travis Tritt's heartfelt beautiful songs but this 1, in my opinion. Has always been the absolute most beautiful of them all. Also, the most overlooked. It reaches into the deepest depths of your soul. He describes so perfectly what true loneliness, a need & yearning for love, to feel the same love in return from someone who seemmingly has been created for you & you for them. For some of us, this is a very lonely sad & harsh reality. I'm going to be 48 yrs old in 2 weeks. I waited until I thought I found my soul mate & married the man that I chose to spend the rest life, grow old & die with in 1997. Only to find out 14 yrs later in a letter to someone that he fell truly madly deeply in love with & had been going back & forth between us since he left me to be with her in 2003. He divorced me after 6 yrs of marriage & was engaged to marry her 5 months later. Which obviously never happened. She didn't harbor the same feelings that he did & was only using him for financial reasons. Throughout the years, she played him like the sad lovesick little puppy that he was for her, just as he played me for the lovesick puppy that I was. Always there waiting to pick him back up & tried so desperately to show him that he would never find another to love, respect, admire & literally kill & die for him if that's what it took to hold on to him. But after 20 yrs on & off with this man that I tried so desperately to make him love me again or to simply try to feel something for me. I found a letter that he had written to the other woman sometime during the 1st 10 times that she had dumped him & of course, as always, I was so happy to have him back! He was never an open, expressive, affectionate, type of man & was more or less seemingly cold & uncaring at times because he had such a hard time expressing himself & his feelings, but worst of all, there was no communication at all in our marriage. Never in a million years would I have dreamt that he was even capable of feeling much less that I'd be reading these emotional out pours, the man that I had never seen show a moment of weakness, begging, pleading for just 1 more chance because he said that he couldn't live without her anymore! His seemingly pathetic but all too piercing words to my very soul & how he held absolutely nothing back, professed his undying & unyielding true love that he felt for this woman was utterly nauseating! I became physically sick to my stomach & threw up several times! To my horror & devastating disbelief, he said in the letter that he had never known what it meant to really truly love anyone & to be willing to do whatever it took, to give up whatever & whoever he had to, to be with her again. I ended up in a mental hospital for 2 months because the next words that I read were just so shocking & gut wrenching that I just couldn't swallow anymore mentally or even physically! As I read his words begging her to PLEASE give him 1 more chance because he was dying inside & that he loved, admired & respected her more than anyone he had ever known. That he had never felt anything for anyone, most of all, any other woman, not even his wife! That he had never really loved me at all. That he just THOUGHT that what he felt for me was love, until she came along & he realized that he had never loved me at all. That he had never nor could ever feel the pain heartache & emptiness that he was feeling. That his life had no purpose or importance without her in it. That he was only existing & didn't want to go on living if it had to be without her. This man was living in my home, went through such a severe depression that he wouldn't get out of bed or go to work for 4 months. He didn't want anything to do with me or ANYONE for that matter. He wouldn't even speak to his boss, co-workers or friends or either of our family members. He contributed nothing to our relationship or home. I tried to communicate with him & begged him to come with me to counseling. I knew that something was terribly wrong because my ex-husband has always been a very hard working blue collar man with great work ethics & high standards. He's always been a happy & outgoing person, especially with his buddies. Well 1 day during this period, I went to look for some paperwork in his truck & I know, I Invaded his privacy, but with the way he was acting & when I saw this woman's name, whom he had left me several times before to be with, left me, our home, our entire lives that we both worked so hard to have, & worst of all, left & divorced me in hopes of marrying her, so many times throughout the 20 yrs of my life that I wasted trying everything in my power to hold onto him. Seeing her name on that thick evelope in his hand writing...I didn't even stop & think about invading his privacy! To hell with his frickin privacy! He had already had entirely too much privacy & way too many 1 more chances! Long story short, I allowed this person who never truly felt anything more than someone to lay up on & use, suck the life out of me like a vampire more every day for 20 yrs! & almost committed suicide when the only one that he ever truly loved tore his heart & his entire life apart when she had her fill of him & was done cleaning out his bank account & he'd jump & run everytime she called & i'd be left devasted & alone again! Because he was the 1 I chose & I simply couldn't force myself to let her have him without a fight. That is, until I finally found that letter after 14 yrs of very cruel verbal & mental abuse, what felt sometimes like pure hate, resentment, lies, deciet, affair after affair, heartache, heartbreak, from an arrogant narcissistic asshole, who saw my love the thing that I valued, treasured & held highest above all other things because I believed in keeping true to my vows & promises. He saw it as a weakness & blind ignorance. I truly believed that he was created for me. But evidently not because as he said to his true love, he never did love me. So I try to look at it as though I haven't lost anything because I never truly had him or his love to lose. The only thing that really still upsets me is that I allowed this person to hurt use & almost destroy me for 20 yrs because I thought I wanted & needed him to love , want & need me. Needless to say, it's been over between us for some time now & I don't even miss him, it doesn't hurt at all anymore because thanks to his letter to his true love, I lost nothing & finally came to a peaceful realization that our relationship of 20 yrs had become nothing more than a habit to me. I realize now that my love for him has been dead & gone for at least a decade. I'm taking things very slow & working on making some long overdue changes within myself. In order to better myself & to build up all the self-esteem & self worth that all the yrs of verbal & mental abuse from this person helped to create. I don't hate him, it was a very long hard lesson learned. But I have grown as a person & I forgive him. I am finally finding the real me & my world no longer revolves around him, I love ME 1st now. This song especially, tugs at my heartstrings & I do feel an aching & emptiness when I hear it. But not because I still hurt over my ex-husband. It's because just as the song says, " everywhere that I go I see ppl in love, the way that I want it to be. " I personally, have never felt truly, madly, deeply, loved, wanted or needed before. The thought of being 48 yrs old & to have never experienced pure, unconditional, undying everlasting true love is a very sad & lonely feeling unlike any other. The thought of never experiencing real true love during your lifetime is 1 of the hardest, most scary, depressing & personally my biggest fear because no one wants to be alone & to never have felt love. I definitely don't want to die a lonely ole maid either. My biggest regret is that I wasted so much time & so many precious years of my life trying to force someone who didn't deserve me or my love & devotion to love me or to simply pretend to. When all those precious years that I wasted, I could have been working on fixing me, then maybe I could have focused on possibly learning to trust again & hopefully opening myself & my heart to someone deserving of my love who could love me the same in return. I not only wish this for myself someday soon. But I also wish this for everyone who has commented & said they feel the same or anyone who is feeling heartbroken, sad, lonely, depressed...Hang in there & try to be patient beautiful souls & hearts with so much love to share. I truly do believe that there is someone out there for us all...

Yes oh Lord Jesus when will there be someone for me

Real honest to Goodness love is so hard to find!!

So I woke up looked in the mirror for the young man I thought I was and it hit me hard, I'm 57 and all alone and I keep asking, when?I don't want to grow old and die alone. Travis has been singing the story of my life since the 90's.

you are not alone in this, everyone is. me included

all about me.... :-(

The man sang the anthem of my life. As a disabled veteran he brought more attention to our cause than anyone else I can THink of... A true legend, thanks Travis. Keep em comimg I'm still listening.

Amen, Travis is a really good man.

this song is about me

I remember hearing this when it was released, I was 18, here I am years later pondering the same thing, I tried a relationship, it was a disaster, left me scarred, and while I may wonder if I'll ever be with someone again, I am in no hurry to rush in again, fear of repeating the past, we all ignore signals because we don't want to be alone. All of the songs on this CD take me back when I hear them, good music will do that.

Maples01 so sorry I'm lost without love to your not alone

yes I know how u feel! Someday I hope and for u as well

God bless

If you really want true love just pray it'll come true it did for me and I can't ask for anyone someone for me and I cherish for the rest of my life you'll find your true love

Mary Olvera me 2

I can completely relate to this song. If only there were someone out there just for me,to erase all the terrible heartbreaks from past relationships and take away my loneliness...I would be a happy joyful person.

Me also 17 years alone. So done.

I have felt this way for some time song describes me to a t

Such a wonderful song

Words can't begin to express how closely I can relate. ...my favourite. ...however NEVER DREAMED it would apply to my life so closely as in high school

After going through two marriages I am sure he wrote this about the past.

There is a lot of truth to this song.
