I feel so sorry for you. It must be devastating to love someone for so long and he/she doesn't love you back. The sad news is that maybe you should realize now that he doesn't love you and that you should try to forget about him and move on with your life. The fact that he told you about her means that he wants you to know about his feelings for this girl and you must respect that. I am really so sorry.

If I may just say something more to you - I believe that there is someone for you out there that will love you very much and whom you will love with all your heart. Maybe you don't want to hear this right now, but hang in there. First go through the healing process and try to get over this person. I know it cannot be easy, I've been there. Good luck, and let us know how you're doing.

It is very sad, but you need to forget about him and find a boy that really wants to love you.

Believe me I know how that feels, I've been in that situation. Now, you may not like my answer-but it's the only one I have to give. You love him, you want the best for him, and he's happy with this other girl. You may think, "he only sees me as a friend." But isn't that great in it's own way!? He trusts you, and friendship is just as important as love. If I like a guy, and he is with someone else, I have to try and disolve THOSE feelings for him, but you don't have to stop liking him! Be his friend, I bet he loves you in another way for being his friend.

I am sorry about your problem. What I say now might sound hard. Yet, it has sense in it. There is no rule in the world that says that if you love someone, you have to be with that someone, you have to marry that someone, and so on. That is plain possessiveness, not love. When you truly love, you wish the best for someone. So I would simply suggest that you let go of this boy and let him live his life. At the same time, move on with your life. Find new friends, make new hobbies. Learn to enjoy life; never ever cling to anything or anyone. True love always comes in life when you feel you don't really need it. :) Cheers and wish you a happy life.

I really really know how you feel. It is simply agonizing. But eventually I learn to let go of that feeling little by little and just remember that to love is not always to have. Just seeing that their happy is what's important. I always say to myself that by thinking that way it means i'm being a better person by not being selfish.

I guess you should give up.It's tiring to keep the relationship with the guy who loves someone else.What's more,this guy has been cheating on you.That will possibly occur for the second time!

I can't tell you how sad i am feeling for you.. Loving is supposed to be wonderful but you are heartbroken cause his love is not returned to you... linghan... how long can you stay like that? i would want to tell you to move on please, forget about him and find someone who will love you back, love is supposed to be that way... i know you can not do that right away but please try it. 7 years is too long, a long wait and you must be sad all the time thinking and waiting for him... do not waste such a good time. i know and i can feel you are still young, find a love that is for you. find someone deserving of the love and attention you can give.

I know how your feeling is... it's been 7 years, not easy been through those past years, and at last only to hear something horrible... Just follow your heart, dear. Choose which way is the best for you. If in earlier phase of the relationship, I can still tolerate. But it's been 7 years..

my suggestion is to be friend with him and not expect for him so much.just let it go naturally,time is a good judger and comfort as well. you can go after others or accept others' love at the same time. there's no conflict in it!good luck!
