Venting Unrequited love

[Hellish Ore]

Life without that one person doesn't make any sense.

Same. Have been falling for women who don't love me back for 9 years now.

My ex broke up with me after 10 years. 2 months ago. I will take sn soon. Because i cant live anymore with thi sadness and pain..I feel like one part of me died..

One thing that hurts the most about unrequited love is not even being as important to the person as you thought you were

I fell in love with a hook up partner. He mostly just used me for sex and never loved me back. Because I loved him I allowed him to use me for sex for eight years but across this period we only hooked up about a dozen times. I have not seen him for five years but still he is all I think about. I think about him daily whenever my mind isn't occupied by anything else it is on him. I am no longer in touch with him because he asked me to stop contacting him because I was contacting him too frequently, desperate for his attention. I am sad that nothing became of this even though he treated me badly. I feel that he is the best that I have done and will ever do in my life as far as how attractive, smart, fun, funny and kind he was. There will be no better and no other for me. He was it. Everything stops there.

I have to disagree. If he treated you like that, he wasn't as amazing as you thought he was. I'm sure he has good qualities but he obviously lacks the ones that really count. You'll find someone who will love you back and this guy will fade into the abyss of your memory.

I've been let down before too and it sucked but I hope you find moments of joy that become more frequent until you don't think about her anymore

Idk about love. Probably never experienced it and probably never will. The extremely rare cases of me feeling an uncontrollable attraction towards someone were either a) a cheating player already in a committed relationship (though they were a serial cheater and kind of a complete asshole to me) b) some guy i met on the internet and vaguely sexted with and did voice calls on discord with talking about nothing/everything and c) the dilf next door that doesn't fucking even know I exist and is married. So while I've never experienced love/unrequited love, all of my feelings and/or attraction has been unrequited. The few/extremely rare times I have had someone who was attracted to me it was completely unwarranted and uninvited and/or *vomits* coming from an abusive family member. So. Unrequited is all I understand. On both sides. Even if its never exactly been love

the only person ive ever loved ctb, ig its not the same but yeah :(

 

[ABSOLUTION]

Yeah, except the opposite somehow.
I was completely prepared for and expecting unrequited love.
It was when the love unexpectedly became requited that caused disaster for me.
In any case, that's a solid amount of nails in the coffin, so to speak.
