Is it ok to love someone and live entire life with that feeling even if the person won't be yours ever?

If a person is willing to do that...who am I to say they shouldn't or can't? A person can't control their feelings, but I also think if the other person doesn't want them...then they need to step back and respect that.

Mostly, I think it's a very very sad choice. I had an uncle of sorts, who never officially married into the family, but lived next door to the love of his life(who was abandoned by a dirtbag husband and the whole divorce thing got crazy) for fifty years. They were as good as married and all that and he took care of her and she of him. They were buried next to each other. It was beyond beautifully tragic.

I don't think I could do that very easily.

@Scribbles: @Scribbles: I use think a fairy would come to take me away.. But I accepted reality that someone people wont love you back no matter what. So I kinda moved on but very much alone.

I am sorry to read this about your uncle.
I believe you, this things are always very hard! Sometimes we have to be like wolverine.

To his dying day, he always seemed happy, he must have found a certain contentment taking care of his love even if she refused to basically love another or get married. And it was obvious she was head over heels sweet on him. It just was sad that I think it would be hard. It would be intentionally going into a sexless marriage.

I don't think I could do that.

Have to be like wolverine?

@Scribbles: I love the character of wolverine, although i don't look like him, but probably just left out alone like an animal :'(
