Love sometimes could really hurt you a lot because some loves people who does not love them not back.Some of them could move on and just forget the love they have but some do their best just to win the love they have.I have a suitor and I do not know why he likes me. I really do not like him because I am already taken.He always text me and I told him that he was just a friend to me but still he does not stop.I am ignoring his messages and does not reply. I do not know if he will stop.How about you guys do you have any experience like that?What will you do about it?

This happens a lot because you usually have to go through all of the people who aren't right for you before you get to the one who is right for you. I have liked guys before I fell in love, but none of them were ever right for me. There were guys who liked me, or fell in love with me, but again, I wasn't interested in them. I felt bad for those guys, but if I am not in love with that person, then that is just that. I can't force myself to love a person when that is not how I feel. My current boyfriend was the first person that I ever fell in love with, and we have been with each other for a long time. He too met a lot of girls who weren't for him, and then he finally met me. Love is unpredictable.

I already experienced this kind of thing, and yeah, it is really hard to love someone who does not love you back. He is my first love. I have been inlove with him for 2 years and 2 years I fell inlove with him, I did not feel I am existing. Its really hard because we're not even friends that's why sometimes I really want to say hello to him but my pride gets in the way because I am the girl and it won't look so good if I will always be the one who will notice him. Even hello from him you would wish for it. I also remember one time that I texted him and I did not introduce myself, he keeps on replying like who I am and then when I say that it's me he would not text back anymore. I have to use different numbers to text him and when he found out that it was me he would not text me back anymore. It really hurts so bad that the one you love seems to do everything just to get rid of you. I t hurts like hell and you can;t do anything about it because he does not like you back.

you should tell him that you have a bf^^ and that sadly you cant be with him. that you like him as a friend. that for you to keep being his friend he needs to understand that you have someone already. if he loves you he wont insist. he can say he loves you but wont try to take you away from your bf. its hard when you like someone that has someone. but he has to move on. we all should be happy. and no one is happy loving a person that has a lover. i think you should tell your friend how you feel. ignore him isnt good and he will be hurt. just tell him how you feel. im sure he doesnt want to hurt you and will stop^^

I am always realistic when it comes to love. I know when it is enough and when to stop. I also experience having a suitor whom I didn't like. I don't let guys buy me something or exert effort for me when I know myself that I don't like them. I turn them down right away. I also experienced falling in love with someone who can't love me because he already has a girlfriend. Because he didn't tell me that he is already committed, he actually hide it from me, I only knew about it when I am already into him. But since I respect the other girl and I respect myself, I moved away from and kept my distance. I don't tolerate my feelings if I know that someone would be hurt. I just put myself in their situation. I don't mind if I am hurting as long as I know that I am doing the right thing. Yes, I still cry and need time to move on. I guess everybody does. What is important is that I don't carry guilt in my conscience.

Yeah, i do have that suitor now. i mean i don't hate him and besides he's a family friend. I know how you fell. All I did was giving him my reasons that i cannot date him not because i don't hate or don't like him that much. I said that "sometimes in life I have to make decisions that would allow me to go further. i cannot date you because i still have dreams to accomplish and i cannot afford to accomplish it with you. Later in the future, you would met a very wonderful person and she's gonna be better than me.i'm sorry". after that,he continually text and even call me. i'd just ignored it. and finally,he instinctively understand what the situation really is.(i think) :)

Yes, I actually did experience that and I started out being friendly and very very respectful, but eventually I had to put my foot down because he's just getting crazier by the minute. One time, he told me that he'd rather die than seeing me with someone else. That was it! I just told him to die all he want, I told him I don't want to talk nor see him again and I changed my number and never looked back. I'm just lucky he doesn't know where I live (because I usually don't give out that information). So be careful, it's not love that they feel, it's insanity because of infatuation. I believe "love" only happens when two people feel it, it's never one-sided. Have a great myLot experience ahead!

That's just a one-sided love. Eventually, he will forget his feelings towards you or he will just set it aside. If you don't really love him, don't give him any chance or hope. If it's possible don't befriend him so that he can move on. Explain to him that you are already taken and that you really love your partner. Tell him to respect your feelings and decision. Happy myLotting!

There really are persistent suitors. Even if they know that you already have a boyfriend, they would say he's just a boyfriend, not a husband yet. Which is logically a bit true. Just don't give him the chance of seeing a false hope, blinjk. Ignore him and he will eventually get tired.

I have experience being liked by someone whom I don't like back.He was sending me messages which I assume are his way of getting close with me.I have no interest in him that's why I ignored all the signals he'd shown.But we remain friends until now.

sad to know about this torturing suitor, as you mentioned you are ignoring his messages, that's good. Keep it up. Some persons fall with love easily and force their beloved persons to love them back. But this kind of activity is wrong, love is not a forcing thing and no one get the real love and affection with the forcing activities, instead of love our torture will create a great hatred in our beloved persons heart. So never do this mistake. If your love is real and sincere, you don't like hurting or forcing your beloved one and enjoying their activities without disturbing them. Some persons will send annoying emails, SMS, MMS and other unwanted things to their beloved persons to get the attention, but this kind of things never make any change, if your beloved person is not interested with you. We can win over our beloved persons heart with our silence and good activities. Forcing activities never help you to get the real love. If we come to know that our beloved person is not interested with us, we must keep distance from them and wish them for their happy life. There is nothing wrong in trying to win over their heart with our good activities, but never force or torture them to get their love. This kind of forced love never give any happiness to both of the persons whoever involved in it. Love is a sensitive thing and we must handle it with full of care, it is similar to a glass particle, which must be handled with care. If you force or torture your beloved one then your love don't have any meaning and it seems to be nothing. No one will get the real and sincere love with this kind of forcing activities.
