How would you differentiate the two?would love be created because of pity at first? or it's really a different thing....... Would you accept the truth that a boy is not in love with you but it's only the feeling of being pity? or you rather going to give it up!

I really hate when I heard a man got pity with the girl.. You know It's not the girl's who looks stupid but the boy, and i pity him for what he behaved..

You're absolutely true.The boy who give pity for the girl and not love is just pretending his self that he knows how to love but the truth is he doesn't know how to do so.he is a coward not to express his rel feelings. It seems that he is imprison by his own jail.

I once had an intimate relationship with my bestfriend. He courted me for three years. Each time he would propose I turned him down. I do not see him as a lover but just a brother and I told him that. Then one day, I got so fed up with his proposal and so I told him that I'm willing t try to work it out. But I really didn't feel anything for him except as a friend. And so after several months, I told him we ought to remain just friends coz it works for us much better.

It was the only thing I know to save our friendship. I don't want to lose any good friendship and he being a real good friend to me is something really special.

Being honest of what you really feel is really the best and right thing for us to do if we really don't feel anything to somebody. I appreciate your honesty and braveness to admit your true feelings to him even if you know that he will be hurt of your decisions.

You will not love to spend time with someone out of pity! Hence, if someone is spending some of his precious time for you without being asked for, be assured that it is love and no pity or sympathy!

yes, i guess it's better to let go of the person you love than to know that he is doing that thing not of love for you bu tbecause of pity!

There is always a big difference between the two. To accept someone due to pity is unfair and I will never consider the thought of loving or accepting someone due to pity. I know some stories that started with this kind of feeling- having mercy/pity that later turns into love But, I don't think I will gamble myself in.

It's such a big risk that needs to have a lot of courage and a great sacrifice that may involve not only itself but also the family sometimes.

Love can't be given as charity or out of sympathy. Love must be pure and simple, forgiving and unconditional. Cheers and Happy mylotting

I think the only guarantee is truly sincere.Only then,can you get truly love.Everything has both sides.He would treat you as the way you treat him.So,come on!

Mutual understanding is good but assurance also not only by actions but also by words is necessary. That understanding might leads to the confusion if it is not well expressed and delivered to the person involved.

These are two very different things often confused with one another. Pity is feeling sorry for someone and sometimes comes when you are already loving the person. Love is selfless and affectionate. Pity is a negative emotion. It isn't good for the pitied or the person pitying.

I cannot accept pity. For me, it's really degrading. I can't be with someone who's not in love with me or whom i don't love at all. There won't be any passion at all and the relationship would be so dull. It's easy for women to learn how to fall in love but I don't think men could easily fall for someone out of pity.

this simply reminds me of a line in one of the famous romantic movies I've watched before which clearly means that love should not be beg by someone as the line goes"i will never beg for your love"

i would say the moment you see it as pity you must quit because there won't be happy ending later. Love is pure and should not come out of pity. Love is when you surrender your life to the other person. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Meaning to say,love is more on sacrificing and surrendering your rights and freedom? Have you tried doing that for the sake of love?

pity and love are two different things. but sometimes people are mistaken. having pity for someone does not mean that you are inlove with him.
