Thoughts on Closure

In the study of human social interaction, closure is the perception of a conclusion to a relationship. The uses/meanings of the term are broad. It is often used in the contemporary United States to refer to the conclusion of a non-continuing romantic relationship, particularly in popular culture. - Wikipedia

My question is, is there a relationship out there that you have not yet received closure on, no matter how great the span of time or how absolutly definite the end of the relationship is? If so, what closure would you need?

ME: tears. I just want to know that it all mattered.

Well, yes, there's probably a relationship that I don't have closure on that perhaps I'm curious about as well....

I think I have closure on all of them. I am now happily married, but I had one relationship with a girl I wanted to marry and she just dumped me and got married to a total dufus. 8 years after that, I met her at a church function and she asked me if she should divorce her husband and try things again with me. I firmly said, "No!" but I smiled from ear to ear. Closure was mine.

Most definitely and while I won't go into detail, I hate to think that it's over. There's some people that just won't ever go out of your head or heart. Y'know?
