Unrequited love?

I can so relate. Was in love with someone for 5 years, didnt exactly choose it, but things happen. I don’t know, I just rode it out, stopped being in love eventually… Sigh, I don’t know, try dating other people. It might help.

Meganhead, thanks for the advice. I wasn’t expecting to hear anything positive, but thanks for putting it that perspective. I’ll continue working on trying to move on. I guess nothing really good can come out of this situation.

Glutton for punishment? That makes it seem like I wanted this to happen. I didn’t choose to like him, and it’s really not that easy to ‘get over’ someone. As I said before, they’ve been on and off lately, so there’s obviously something not quite right.

Well, once track is over, and school is out, you’ll have a change of heart. If a person REALLY wanted to get over someone, they could! They have to want to!

I know how you feel I used to be completely in love with this guy who was in a realtionship with this one girl for 4 years and he didnt like me back. the only thing that happened was that his girlfriend hated me because I tried to mess up their relationship and then the guy who was one of my best friends soon hated me too because I had no right to do what I did. now I am in the most amazing relationship with a guy I love to death! and now the guy I used to like broke up with his girlrfriend came crawling to me expecting I would leave my current boyfriend for him. he had to be effing crazy because I am so in love with what I’ve got. my advice to you is to just find another guy. I know its hard and it was hard for me but it was the best thing I have ever done. you wont regret it, I promise.

I compleatly agree with everything that meganhead has said so far!! it seems that your heart may have developed emotions, and told your head that this guy is the type of guy that you want in your life!! - cause you’ve never met a guy this real and nice before!! but telling you straight out - it would be wrong if you were to go for him since he has a girlfriend!! you’re already lucky enough to have him as a friend…and I’m sure you don’t want to complicate things by giving him hints that you like him… because that would just mess things up…wouldn’t it? there are many other guys out there…that aren’t taken… if you keep on chasing for this guy (that’s taken)…you may just be missing out on the guys that aren’t taken…just keep yourself open…and I’m sure you’ll find “mr.perfect”!! =)

I know you didn’t choose to like him, but you can choose how much energy you put into him now. You should value yourself more than hoping to catch a guy when he MIGHT be on the outs with his girlfriend. Even if he does break things off with his girl and hooks up with you, there will always be that constant fear of him returning to his girl, or that he’s using you to toy with her. It seems to me like you are setting yourself up for failure. I’m sorry I didn’t tell you what you wanted to hear, but you did ask for advice. I’m giving you the obvious-to-everyone-else point of view that you can’t seem to see because you are blinded with emotion.

Now that I think about it, I don’t even think I really want to get over him, or wanted my feelings to ‘deminish’ for him. It hurts that I can’t have him, but he can also make me ridiculously happy. Him and I are ‘new friends’ and I want to keep being friends with him, even if it means falling harder. I guess I just want to make him mine :\

I’d move on take it from a guy, I work at Wal-Mart, and I was in love with this girl that was a Cashier at the front. I was CRAZY about her.

And I was going to make a move but then I found out through a friend that she has had a boyfriend for almost a year now. So I was pretty depressed about that.

But the only thing I could do was move on and forget about her there is plenty of fish in the sea, that just doesnt go for chicks there are a lot of dudes also.

you must be a glutton for punishment. he has a girl friend. that means he chose someone else to “make ridiculously happy”.
