love is a wonderful thing. When you are in love, you are inspired to do things. But what if the one you love does not love you back? On my part, I'm in love with my best friend but he is in love with someone else. If you were in my shoes, what will u do?

Well. that is hard. Just enjoy the feeling and time with that person but do not expect to be loved in return. It would be nice if he falls for you as well but if not. Divert the feelings or just learn to love that person with out expecting in return.

I have been in your shoes several times, so I understand how it feels. When it happened to me the first time, I could not accept it, being angry, and cried in terrible sadness. But slowly, I learned what love means, and was able to make good progress. Right now, if I love someone but that person does not love me, then letting her knows that I am in love with her is enough. After all, her happiness that matter the most. I cannot insist a person that I love to love me in a condition that she cannot love me. I believe, my love deserves an equal love, and I believe I am gonna make it someday!

I think you should love him a s a friend. Because if he love some one else maybe you should accept that he is not meant for you. There are many guys out there and I'm sure one of them is destined to be your love. Just look around you and soon you will forget the love that is blossoming in your heart for a friend.

If I were you,I'll keep my feelings with myself. I'll be afraid to know what his reaction will be if he'll knew that I'm in love with him. I would rather keep our friendship without any fears of losing him than losing him because of trying to put our friendship in a different level.

I was in your shoes before. I just loved him silently, though it hurts for me because I didn't receive anything in return, I still loved him back. Time came and I was able to move on, until I met someone, who loved me back and whom I love the most right now. Be patient, when the right time comes, it will permit you to be loved by the person whom you really love. Smile always, for you'll never know your smile means the world to someone. =)

Loving someone and not being reciprocated is very difficult my friend. I would truly suggest to remain good friends and try really hard not to mix the two as if the love does not work out you have not only lost a love but a true friend.

This is a bad situation. The bad news is that no matter how hard you try, you're not gonna be able to get your best friend to fall in love with you because his in love with someone else right? Try to hanging out with your girlfriends and doing nice thing for your self. I don't think you should ignore him, but I do think you shouldn't make him your top priority. Usually when we put our needs above someone else that is when they start feeling you more and your importance. If its meant to happen it will, and if it is not, it is usually means something better is waiting for you just around the corner. Try to accept and don't expect to much for him to love you back as you wanted and be happy to the decisions of your best friend.

if i'm in your situation i'll rather keep the friendship you built for a long time rather than entering to a serious relationship which we don't know until when it will lasts.

If I were u, I'd like to wait and to not tell him, in this way we can also be friends, and may be after some time I can find one that love me very much and also I love him, or maybe he will realize that u are the best for him. Wish u good luck!

Be patient. If it is meant to be, it will happen. He may realize that he loves you back, or you may realize that you don't love him after all. Whatever happens, it will take time.

If i were in your shoes,I'd probably feel sad and lonesome. But it does not mean that i will stop loving that person, instead i will just put that person as my inspiration in order for me to make things better.We don't know he also admires you and then one day realize that he also loves you.
