hi guys how are you? i was just wondering.. if you loved someone but you could never be with this person would you hold on to this feeling or would you just find someone else? about me i can honestly say that i think i would find someone. even i wanted to hold on to that feeling i couldnt just be alone for all my life sure its terrible to know that your true love cant be with you, but would we live unhappy for all our life? i wish i could say i would just hold on to that feeling but if i could never be with him i would just try to love someone else. but if there was a little, even slightly chance that me and him could be together i would for sure do everything i could^^ what about you guys?^^ what do you think? have a happy day with a lot of love

Hi sweet love forever: This has happened to me and what I can tell you is that I honestly think that sometimes to love someone means to know you have to let go. In this case I wish him/her good luck and find someone else. When you love someone you care for this person even if he/she ahs chosen not to be with you or if it's just impossible. ALVARO

i understand what you mean^^ its true that sometimes we have to let go but i cant do that. i cant let go of a guy im in love with, unless sure if he doesnt love me. but if he does, i cant give him up. i want to see him near me and have my chance to show him how i love him. i know it wont be so easy, i have no money at all, but i will fight for it to happen. good things are life are gotten after we fight for it. so thats what i should do. i wont stop fighting unless he says to me he doesnt love me any longer. if that day comes, then sure i have to let him go.

It really depends why I couldn't be with him. If he was in jail that ws the circumstances then I would move on no way I would wait around. If he was in a different state or country then maybe I would try to find away to be with him. nly reason I say that is because I have been talking to a guy who lives almost 1000 miles a way. He seems like a very nice guy but keeps hinting me to move there where he is but I have a3 yr old to worry about and can't just pick up and move.

im talking about being too far from him. why isnt he going to visit you and meet you near? then you could decide to move or not near him. without talk with him in person you cant just take your things and your kid like that. i understand you completely. talk with him and tell him about meet near^^ then you both can make a decision after spend some time with each other^^ life is a bit complicated and even if you like him you cant leave all your life behind without knowing him in person first^^

i understand^^ you want to live in your city for some time. thats normal you have a little kid to take care of. about him dont want to live in other place but louisiana is ok but he could just go and meet you for like one week^^ he wouldnt need to live there for a long time. but sure for you to go and live with him, you need some security. so he should understand that you need to see him near^^ and the best way is maybe you go half the way and he goes other half and you meet in between both your states. that way both do something to meet :)

I have no idea why he wouldn't meet me 1/2 way. He said he wouldn't want to live anywhere else but Louisiana. Maybe one day we can figure it out unless he moves on and finds someone local. I honestly didn't want to meet anyone local either since I have no intentions on relocating anytime soon.

Hi! I'm a practical person. I don't think I will be able to wait for someone without even a slim chance that we can be together. I think it's kind of a waste of time, effort and energy. And I think I have my pride as a person, I don't want to wait for someone all my life! I deserve to be happy, too. Sure it's nice to be in love, but it would be nicer if that feeling can be answered by the other party. It would be very sad if that feeling is not returned and I don't want to be sad for a very long time. If ever I think that there's a slim chance that we can be together, I would go after that chance as early as possible so I won't have to waste anymore time on that feeling.

i tried already^^ anyway i will just wait to see what he is going to do.. but if he doesnt do anything is ok. i already did too much. so now is his turn to do or not. its a choice that he has to make. i wont influenciate him. if we are meant to be we will be. anyway im not sure anymore if i want to be with him ever again. i love him, thats true and i wanted to be with him but he is just hurting me too much.. he should just say he loves me and be the same guy i love again.. that way for sure i wouldnt let him go.

sure if that person doesnt love you back, you shouldnt wait. but im talking about have a slim chance to be with the person. im happy that you would do what you could to be near him. me also im doing what i can to meet him near soon^^ i think that if we have a slight chance to be with the one we love, we shouldnt let go^^ thats why im not letting go, unless he says to me he doesnt love me any longer. if that happens, i will have to let go :(

If you really love a person and agree to enter into a relationship. you should him/her because of that love. If you can't wait...meaning that is not love but a kind of affection and want him/her only because you want someone in your life but not a long lasting relationship

i saw him and we talked a lot already. just we couldnt touch each other. but if you talk and become close to someone you can love him. i just agree with something that you said that is if the person doesnt care then we shouldnt care either. thats true but dont worry i know what is the best for me^^ i wont let no one hurt me again. i got much hurt already and i wont get more. thanks for your comment anyway. have a good day.

i think i understand what you mean^^ if someone cant wait its bcs the love they feel is not so strong right? i also think like that sometimes. if we love someone we should just wait but in reality thats a bit complicated. if you are so far from the one you love, its normal that you feel insecure sometimes. no one wants to end up alone. and if you be waiting like 3 years for someone and it takes a lot of time to meet near most part give up.

I have a perfect woman, except she only lives in my head. If I meet someone who would like me to make her perfect, then I will train her to be more-and-more like the woman in my head. If someone lived near me and so-agreed, and then moved far-far away; I would hope her next guy sees the direction I was going, which is the direction in which I'll start training the next woman. (Kinda like Sigfried or Roy (of Sigfried & Roy ) with jungle-cats.)

but you shouldnt want to train her to be the perfect woman. you should love her for what she is. we cant change someone. if we change then we dont love who the person is but who we want him to be. you should try to be with a girl soon^^ you deserve to be happy. im sure that near you there are a lot of girls^^ and one of them is the right one. about me i will just keep waiting to meet this guy soon^^ will just let destiny decide things^^

i dont think so. i think that we love the person for who he is already. not for who he might become. or else we could choose anyone.. i dont think we can choose who we fall in love with. it just happens. i dont want a guy that will become what i want him to be. it will just happen that i will fall for him for who he is. sometimes people change and disappoint us. and is true that sometimes we think the one we love has one personality and then he becomes different and we be broken.

Hiee iam exactly in the same situation as you are. Me and my girl we are having lot of family problems her family is stressing on to find her some one. And her someone else is no othere than her ex BF he is probably working and iam still learning that what my weakness is. She is having very least felling with me. She is really depressed about that, apart from that her family is forcing her to marriage but she is refusing because she is in love with me i cant say that its love but she is refusing so somewhere i think she has a space for me in her heart. Even iam depressed about such issues but i think that i can manage from such things she is probably also not talking properly with me and that hurts me a lot but i have made my mind that she is depressed and in that situation she is talking thing. Iam just waiting for the time to heal and also praying for her health as she is very weak in health, she has no other support than me. So i have made my mind whatever hurt is there i will gladly accept as my test for love if she is happy with the guy i too will accept it because love has a sacrifice and iam ready to do that.

Hi sweetlove, If I loved someone and I knew there was no way I could be with this person I would try everything within me to try and let go. Only because if I knew holding on to the hope would somehow hurt me further. Therefore, I would allow a sometime for my heart to at least heal and find the me first. Then when I feel up to it I would be open to perhaps finding and or being with someone else. Broken hearts are so hard to mend but with time we can recover somewhat, as there is guarantee we will definitely completely forget the person.

Cat. I do feel any love is worth fighting for, but only if it means there may be hope. See some can be blinded and further hurt themselves if the other person does not reciprocate the same feelings. I would say just give it a little time and then see again if the person misses you as much as you miss them. Sometimes, and yes I am guilty of this in my past that I would not want to let go. It further hurt me as the person, took me for granted because they felt that I would always be there no matter what. So I say give a little time to see if he does miss you and wonder why you are not there. This will give you a reason, to know if it is worth it in the end. I will definitely keep my hopes, prayers and fingers cross, as if not this one I want someone to love you the way you definitely deserve.

I agree...It's not that easy to be far from someone you love and it's best to hod on with that love but if you feel that person is not worthy enough,guess it's time to let go.It's best to remain single for a while but if there's someone who truly cares for you and deserve your love.Why not go for it?

Sometimes it seems hard to wait for someone who will never be there for me. I might fall and break longing alone in the silence, but then I have to get up and walk on. I have to let these feelings pass by. I still cannot change the special attitude towards someone I will never be together. I am aware I should not live in my imagination. Maybe someday I will be able not to compare other men with the one who has been special for me.

yes you are right. its hard to wait for someone that is so far. we dont know when the day we will be near will come. but about my feelings i dont want to give him up. im afraid that i dont find a guy like him. he loves me and i know he was honest to me. what worries me is the fact that a girl loves him too right now and she lives near me. and me im so far. how can i fight against someone that is so near? thats why i want to go near him as soon as possible.

It really depends if the other person has a bit of feelings for you. I would normally hold on to that feeling and wait until she decides what she wants. And if nothing happens interim, I would most definitely find someone else. Nobody likes getting their heart broken.

I just recently started a discussion similar to this one. I am married to a wonderful man and have been for 16 years, but I know that I truly love someone else that I just can't be with. It is a hard decision to make. I love my husband but I am in love with someone else. I say that it is better than being alone, but it still hurts each day to know that my true love is out there.

I would never go looking for someone else, as in my experience, this have never really worked. When I have lost someone that I loved, I have just gone through the experience of missing for them, and tended not to look for anyone, then later in life, someone just turned up and we were good together. _Derek

I am holding on all these 10 years. My so called boyfriend went to Australia without even informing me. His sisters did only. He went in year 2000 and went back here recently. I have been thinking and keeping this feeling inside my heart and wonder if we could get back together but things has changed. If there is a right man coming to me proposing I would get married immediately. I am 30 this year and I am sure I can't wait any longer till I am old. So finding someone else is probably the right choice. I am not flirtatious and like you said "I couldnt just be alone for all my life" sure its terrible to hold on like that.

if he is near you now you should meet him on a date and talk about things. if you still love him you need to know how he feels for you. if he loves you or not. when you know the answer then you can move on with your life. but if dont know you will be always wondering if he loves you or not. to solve this just talk with him^^ i understand that you want to marry soon but try to be a bit more patient. after your talk with this guy things will be solved^^

Love is for everyone. if you believe now that this person is not for you, then it's a good choice because you're opening you're heart to some one else. you did hold to that feeling long enough for yourself to realize that he is not for you and he knows that now. we care for you and we love you here. just come by when ever you feel sad and you know where i will be.

I think you can still be with that person. You have facebook,twitter,skype and other communication gadget such as cellphone.So you can manage to be with that person using this communication devices. But as time goes on you should also try to travel to the location of that person so that you can spend time with that person. As a decent person you should not engage in cheating by dating another person behind your lover.
