The one who loves you or the one you love?

What if you are given a choice to pick between 1. the person who loves you but you don't feel the same thing about him/her or 2. the one you love but doesn't feel the same about you? It takes a lot of courage to choose between the two because you either have to sacrifice yours or the other's feelings. Given that you are faced with the same scenario, who will you choose to be with? Would you still choose your beloved and fight your love until the very end or the one who loves you and just move on with life?

well this is a very good question for me as i have been in this situation, a guy loved me soooo much and i didnt have the same feelings toward him. i fell in love with his best friend i thought he didnt like me but i just wanted to be happy but it turned out well in the end he loves me and we are still together to this day we have a baby and another one coming. We are getting married too as soon as we can afford it. so my selfishness turned out to be the best thing ever in this one scenario!!!

I would choose neither. I would run!!! I won't settle for less than true love. It is where true passion lives. Anything else just invites a broken heart!

I think I would go for number one. I would have to be selfish this time because in my past relationships I have always been at the giving end, I want to be at the receiving end this time. I know that one day I will learn to love him the way he deserves to be loved.

Honestly, until now, I still don't know how to answer that question that has been asked to me for several times already. Oh my, friend, I didn't notice at once that you are the starter of this discussion, I was so in to the question and didn't even bother to look at the starter. LOL ^_^

Either situation won't work. If only one person in a relationship is 'in love' then the odds of that lasting are slim. You hold off and wait until the right person comes along. It will happen and when you both feel the same way it is so much better!
