What To Do When the Person You Love Doesn't Love You Back?

Accept the Reality : When we are in love with someone it feels like he/she is the only person that will make us happy. What we fail to realize is that we can never be happy with the person who will not love us. So even though you might be ready to commit for life, the person you are in love with does not share the same feelings. So instead of sitting around moping away, accept that the love is not mutual and try to move on in life. Do not invest any more time or thought or energy in this person. Acceptance and realization of these facts will allow you to change your focus and take the first steps towards moving on. Move on : As easy as it may sound, a relationship breakup is probably the most difficult part. Cry your heart out and then start by throwing away any of the photos and mementos that may remind you of the happy times that you spent together. Stay away from places and things that might remind you of him/her. Instead do things that will keep you busy such as spending time with ...

Someday, someone can prove that not all men are the same. :)

In a brief conversation, a man asked a woman. He was pursuing the question: 'What kind of man are you looking for?' She sat quietly for a moment before looking him in the eye & asking, 'Do you really want to know?' Reluctantly, he said, 'Yes.' She began to expand, 'As a woman in this day & age, I am in a position to ask a man what you can do for me that I can't do for myself? I pay my own bills. I take care of my household without the help of any man... or woman for that matter. I am in the position to ask, 'What can you bring to the table?' The man looked at her. Clearly he thought that she was referring to money. She quickly corrected his thought & stated, 'I am not referring to money. I need something more.  I need a man who is striving for excellence in every aspect of life. He sat back in his chair, folded his arms, & asked her to explain. She said, 'I need someone who is striving for excellence mentally because I ...

never give up on love

I use to wake up in the morning and I'd hear your name Had you picture in my mind I didn't need a frame Wrote you letters that I couldn't see you eye to eye Hope the letters could express the way I felt inside Sometimes, the ones that you love Do not feel the same way that you do and it hurts you bad Sometimes your heart'll get weak But you can never give up on love I'll never give up on love Cause I know it's true, I know its real because I know the way I felt for you And In the middle of the night When I hear your name, I say a prayer for you And hope that you will do the same I'll never give up on love Cause that God aserned To find love when he made a prayer we both deserve And he's the father that we'll never see on earth So I'll never give up on love Things are different now without you always on my mind Definitely better, but I must admit it hurts sometimes What we had meant so much to me, jus to let you know, But what's done is done ...

I Am Proud of Myself: A Night of Small Victories

Image
Yesterday, I went to a party. It seemed like an ordinary night out, just another chance to have some fun and unwind. But as the evening unfolded, it turned into something more—an unexpected test of my own strength. I didn’t go in expecting it, but I walked away feeling proud of myself for reasons that are hard to explain without understanding the past I’ve been carrying. At some point during the night, his favorite song started playing, echoing through the room with memories I thought would weigh me down. A familiar pang hit me, one that I used to struggle to ignore. And when I went to grab a drink, the only option was his favorite—a drink I used to share with him so many times. I took a sip and braced myself, expecting the wave of emotions to follow, but they didn’t hit as hard as they used to. I didn’t crumble; I didn’t break. I just... was. I even found myself talking about our situation with friends—just a bit, just enough. It didn’t feel like a desperate attempt to get answers or ...
