What do you do when you’re in love with someone you can’t have?

If I could touch anything in the world right now, it would be your heart. I want to take that piece of you and keep it with me.

You mean can't stay with them or it's just unrequited?

If i couldn't stay with them but the feelings were reciprocal that would make me happy and sad at the same time cause I'd love being with them but just would accept it and focus on other things so my life isn't consumed by feelings, and wish them well and keep in touch with them if posible 🥰 I'd want them to be in my life if that's what they want ofc otherwise there's no point


And if it's unrequited, I would stop loving them (in the case I developed strong feelings for someone that didn't feel the same way for me, it hasn't really happened to me) cause for me if it's not reciprocal it's nothing. And again, focus on my life.

I stay with the person and care about whenever I am needed. But I would keep quiet about my feelings.
Loretta78 · 46-50, F
@PhilDeep No, not really. When I really love a person I put my focus on the happiness of this person.

Because how can I be happy when I built my happiness on the unhappiness of the person I‘m loving?

That would be selfish.

@Loretta78 Purity then, and making me ponder now if anything else even counts.
Loretta78 · 46-50, F
@PhilDeep I think no.
True love should focus always on the happiness on the person(s) we are loving.

We are lucky when we receive the love back. And when we don‘t receive ist back… Well, that‘s destiny and we should not fight against that.

Hijack him to my fantasies and make the best of it. Other than that, wait until it passes, it usually does.

Avoid them, apparently it gets easier eventually.

@SW-User I'll bear that in mind. Thank you.
PhilDeep · 51-55, M
It's very difficult. Distance and time are the only things that works for me, from experience. Just have to cope with it I guess. It seems like pretty-much everyone goes through this at one time or other in life, some more often than others, sadly.
Tinkerxbell · 41-45, F
@PhilDeep I know, I've been there done that.. Still another person is coming into my life, despite the distance and time difference. My heart is saying enough is enough
Wait who tells me who I'm allowed to be in love with? It's a free country I do what I want.
Tinkerxbell · 41-45, F
@BetweenKittensandRiots You're right. Thanks.
@Tinkerxbell Yeah long as they aren't a child I think we're all good.
Tinkerxbell · 41-45, F
@BetweenKittensandRiots Totally... That'd be a big no for me. Well, I'm in love with a very dear friend, but she hurts me badly before. And, I don't know if I can go through it again.
SW-User
I think my brain is in sync with my heart. I don't seem to develop feelings for someone I can't have.

@SW-User You are lucky, I hope. :)
Tinkerxbell · 41-45, F
@SW-User Happy to know. 😀
HannibalAteMeOut · 22-25, F
Still try I guess? And then just wait for it to pass. It will pass.
Tinkerxbell · 41-45, F
@HannibalAteMeOut Yeah, just let it me. Thanks so much. x
I'd say that when you truly love someone you would be okay with that person no longer being in your life. Because you love them no matter what. My first true love could no longer speak to me because of his new girlfriend at the time (now wife) is very jealous. She doesn't allow him female friends. I miss the person I used to know and love and just have to be okay with it and hope he is happy.

I let my heart ache, and wait
SW-User
@RebelFox oh 😐
RebelFox · 36-40, F
@SW-User eventually the pain stops
JoyfulSilence · 46-50, M
Cry.

Then look elsewhere (only to be in the same situation again).
plungesponge · 41-45, M
Find out if she's got a sister
SW-User
If we could hold a heart, feels it's tenderness, or sometimes jadedness wouldn't it be beautiful? We could really get to know them and understand their feelings.
Tinkerxbell · 41-45, F
@SW-User Yes, it'd be beautiful indeed.
JustNik · 51-55, F
I think I rather like loving someone I can’t have. They get to stay all good forever. The ache eventually fades though, and he just becomes a comforting daydream.
SW-User
aw, I hope you get to take them with you.
Tinkerxbell · 41-45, F
@SW-User Thanks. I hope so too. I guess, what's meant to be will be.
Try and be happy for them that’s all you can do..
Get with them anyways

I never fall in love with people I can't have. 🙂
