When I was a young teenager I was soooo inlove with a guy one year older then me. He was a friend of mine and I do not know to this day if he ever knew that I had the biggest crush on him ever =) I do belive that he had one on me as well, but we were both to shy to ever do anything about it. I was so miserable, but like I said, too shy to do anything or to even think about telling him how i felt =) I am not sorry about it today though, coz I see nothing that would have lasted =) So have you ever been Un-happily in love? tell me more...

yep,, i experienced the same thing marie. i was 17 at that time and he was 22. he was a foreigner studying arts in our school. we were really closed. he would tell me things about his family. things that i think he never told any of his girlfriends. yes, girlfriends with letter S. he was a playboy/womanizer. but didn't stop me from falling in love with him. thrice a week or more, he would join eating lunch with me and with my friends. and everytime he would talk, he will look at me and ask me something just so that i will talk. i have this bad habit that when i really like somebody, i cannot talk infront of that person eventhough i am very talkativ e with that person is around. anyways, he would onstantly tease me infront of people and there was a time that he drew me (he's a very talented artist) in the middle of our philiosphy discuccion. this really bothered me but deep inside i was really pleased. i suppressed whatever feelings i have towards him coz he has a girlfriend at that time. i become so snobbish that after a while he was irritated with it and not pay any attention with me. after a year, he graduated and i never saw him again. his friends would tell me thats its better that we didnt have any relationship coz they dont wanna see me hurt. honestly marie, am still in love with him. maybe that's the reason why i don't have any relationship with other guys until now.

i don't think he knew that i love him and still do. we haven't seen each other for three years now. he's busy now since he took up dentistry in other university.

But, Marie, is it too late to do anything about it? Where is he now? And "why close the gate,before he has a chance to enter your life?" It's never too late! You have to make things happen, not wait until they happen!

Well that is great, as long as you are happy, that is what is important! Yes, I had several girls that still cross my mind every once in a while, but more than likely, they have met someone by now, that they are "deeply in love with"!

Well Marie, I can understand everything you say because me too I'm very shy. And yet you were very young, so it isn't easy, for young teenagers, to tell the person we love that we have a crush on him/her. I think that it is very difficult to find a person who has never been unhappy in love. Everybody, soon or later, experiences this kind of situation, everybody has been unhappy in love at least a time in his/her life. It's normal and it's important, because such experiences help us to grow up.

It took me 20 years before I ever had my first boyfriend. I used to have a huge crush on our neighbor. His father is my eldest brother's godfather. He was so good looking, quiet and conservative. I have heard that he never had a girlfriend before. Years passed and I heard that he already graduated. I always pass by their house just to see a glimpse of him. Only to realize that after he graduated, he vowed to celibacy and planned of becoming a priest. I was both happy and unhappy. I knew I'll never have a chance on him which made me unhappy, but happy in a way that no one will ever have a chance on him but GOD *wink*.

Hi marie, I can't called mine "unhappily in love" but rather crushes or puppy love. I had my first crush when I was 12 and I thought I was in love. I had my second crush when I turned 18, and again, I thought I was in love. Now more wiser and mature, looking back, I can only laugh at all the crazy thoughts I have before.

When I was 12 I met an 18 year old guy at church. I really liked him and had a crush on him. He was nice to me and we became friends. By the time I was 16 I was so in love with this guy that it physically hurt me when I thought about him dating other people. He wasn't interested in me, he was 22 by that time. I would tell myself that when I was 18 our age differnce wouldnt matter, we were still really good friends. On my 18th birthday I went to church and he was there. He introduced me to his current girlfriend who went to my high school and was 17. I was crushed. He later married her and they have been married almost 15 years now. I think maybe he would never have looked at me as anything other than a friend. When we met I as just a little girl and I think maybe he always saw me as that little girl who needed a friend when we met. He met his wife when she was 16 so he never saw her as a child. It would never have worked out anyways. We wanted different things.

That is a typical story. You are probably right about him never stopping to see u as a little girl that needed a friend, and that it probably never would work out as well =)

When I was in my teens I was in an abusive relationship. When he was angry, I became his punching bang. I knew there was no future yet I stayed for a year. I knew I needed to get out of that relationship and find real love, but it took myself a long time to get the courage to leave.

Right now, I'm unhappy about love. I love this girl very very very much, but she said she doesn't love me. I told her I love her in front of everyone. Anyway, she probably thinks I'm a jerk. As she said to a friend of hers: "Eduardo (me) is just a guy from my school". I though we were friends... The hardest part is to hear that kind of stuff. Just a guy from school? Come on, I am her friend! It's a shame she doesn't think I'm her friend.
