They say you never forget your first love; mine happend when I was in Kindergarten-junior high. I was head over heels with this girl; We grew apart in high school as we didn't have classes; Our Sophomore year she ended up dropping out of school as she was pregnant by a guy. I was so hurt because she knew how much I liked her; I just knew she was the one for me. I've liekd other girls since but i've never been in a relationship an i'm in college now. The thought of her today makes me absolutly sick; But do I have to forgive her so that i'm able to move on? I guess in a way I nvr compltly got over her as I still think about what could've been from time to time but I know she's not the one for me. I've prayed an asked God to lead me to thte right woman but so far I'm not hearing back an it's discouraging.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
Do I have to forgive someone from my past to have a relationship?

Well you should always forgive others.
I'm with Sketcher, has she directly done anything wrong to you? For example, there's an extremely popular girl in school, she knows full well that some guys like her. If she dates/marries someone, has she sinned against those who like her very much? Unless of course, you were in an intimate relationship with her.
If she was not married by the guy who got her pregnant then she has committed the sin of fornication.
As for my advice,
Sometimes thoughts about my first girlfriend popup from time to time, but I never let them get to me, nor do I dwell on them, she has her own boyfriend now and I'm happy for her. As for meeting the right woman, well I wouldn't say there's a fixed period on when you will meet her. Some people find their partner below the 20, or after they're 40. What I would do now, is seek God more than anything.
