If u've ever been in a situation where love was not reciprocated, u'll appreciate staying or being with the one who loves u. There is so much peace of mind, attention and fun, i believe luv attracts luv, so its better i choose the one who loves me and learn to love him bearing in mind that it takes two to tangle.

Hey, You took words out of my mouth. Yes, I believe it works better, especially if they guy is the one in love, but its hell if the girl is the one doing the loving. I want my man to do the loving, while I reciprocate.

Its quite a difficult situation, ordinarily, i'd love to stick to the one i love but what if he doesn't reciprocate my love? So, i will choose the one who loves me and learn to love him.

With all due respect, There is a fundamental flaw in your question. I like to know what do you mean as "choose". Doe it mean choose to be life partner? If so, lets analyze the option. Relationship does not work one way. Both party has to be involved emotionally for the union to work out. So if either you do not love him or he does not love you, it will collapse. Now the question, Is there no third option - "Not to choose any". Should we not wait for "The One"? So if it is me, I would "choose" neither because choosing the one who loves me is a selfish act and injustice to that person while choosing the one who I love is a betrayal of my own self respect.

hi tommy! actually this question just popped out of my mind when i heard the song and part of the lyrics is that "are you gonna stay with the one who loves you or are you going back to the one you love" sounds familiar? thanks for the response..

It's a tough question, but i'll rather go for the one i love than the one who loves me. Love is unconditional. You love someone but you don't expect to be loved back. Looking at the side of the person who loves you, he can't also force you to fall for him, right? You can't be happy with he person that loves you but you dont love him. Trust me, it's harder to say "i'll try to love him" than to say "i'm willing to wait".

I assume you love both guys but one of them loves you and the other doesn't (or love you less). You should go for the one who loves you. Love needs to be nurtured so it stays all the time. Imagine going for the one you love, and him always hurting you. One day you wake up and the love is gone. Then what? you are left with nothing (the one who loves you probably has someone else by that time). The one who loves you- I take it that you are in love with him somewhat to begin with. The one who loves you will treat you fairly and show you love. Your love for him will grow.

Quite agree with evelynlyp, if you are in such situation, go for the one who loves you. It won't be wrong. But it isn't such situation, I think it depends on the specific situation. After all, different situations bring different choices.

That is always the phrase that gives us a hard time to answer because for me its difficult to choose from the two individuals but personally I would rather choose the person I love because I know that I will be happy if I am with him as well as him I know that he will be happy if he is with me. While to the person who loves me maybe I can be his true friend. But for example in a situation that the one I love has somebody whom he loves and that just gives me heartaches maybe I'll try to accept the love of the person who loves me. Not because I am hurt or I am using him but I would want to give him a chance and also I want to be happy. With my personality I can easily fall for a person if I am with him always and if he is so sweet caring and thoughtful. With that kind of qualities maybe there we will never have problems.

i've been in that situation before he loves me very much he gives what i like he do all what i've said then later on for me theres no challenge coz we dont fight at all no arguments and now we end up nothing. Yes its so delightful to be with the one who loves you but theres a time or maybe as you go on to that relation you will feel a boredom to each other.

no i m still have to go from this situation,i think you should go for that who loves you not for that whom you love.but it is your decision,do you like the person who loves you,or you just dont want that person.

yes its good that we love the one whom we love but the thing is that its not always successful it is not confirm that he/she will love us.....in fact this can be your first choice but you can think about that person also who you so much and cares for you even she also has got heart and you should think that his/her heart beats for you....so m sorry i would be on both the sides.....but if you want a single answer then its obvious would first try to get my love that is the one whom i love.

ive been in the situation too,but i chose to be with the guy i love becausae i dont wana be unfair to the person who loves me. i know exactly how it feels like loving someone who doesnt love you, and it really hurts a lot. wherein i dont want others to feel same way that im feeling. and if you really love someone, you wont expect anything in return. martyr isnt it? but its a part of love, coz when you choose to love, you have to accept not only the happiness but also the hearthaches.

hmm.. i guess i did, but i chose none of them. why? because i want both of us to be even, fare and square. thats how i deal with it.

I can honestly say that I was involved in something close to your situation. I actually met someone who thought they were in love with me. Her point of view was a fraud through rumours which were set from such along time ago. With everything she had heard about me through these rumour and of course her friends lied to her, making her think that she fell deep in love with me for all the wrong reasons. She became obsessed with who i wasn't rather than giving the chance to know or accept everything that is true from who I am today. Making the decision to be with a person who love you, you have to decide to ask why they do. What is it about you they love. If they can't give me an answer straight up. They have chosen to believe the rumours over you.

anybody's love/need for another person is not a static thing,it depends upona lot of factors and keeps on changing!the person who loves you may change his /her interset or the person you love may not lok soo intresting later.you can't simply go by your current feeling alone.you have to look at the future too. but actually it is always better if you stick with the one who loves you!atleast you wont have the complain that he doesnt love you atleast for some years!because if a person doesnt like a person its really difficult to make him/her love you!
