Have you've ever liked, had feelings, or loved someone so bad that it felt like you would explode if you didn't tell them or show them how you felt. I mean you sit and you think about them all day. You want them to be happy, you wish for their happiness, and you hope that you make them happy. You do everything you can to be around them, and I'm not talking about that stalker/annoying kind of trying to be around a person, but a genuine desire to want to be around them and spend quality time with them. You have some serious feelings for this person and you would do anything for them if you could. This isn't a joke for you and you hope deep down that they feel the same way too. I mean you're reading this and probably thinking about them RIGHT NOW!!!
But you either feel or know that they don't feel the same way about you. It really pains you that they don't feel the same way about you. I have felt this many times in my life and it is never an easy thing to accept or to realize. They may very well like you, but they don't quite like you the way you like them. It would be ten times easy for them to walk away from what you share then it would ever be for you. I guess the expression "Unrequited Love" doesn't fit for the scenario I'm describing here, but this is so extreme the very expression is very appropriate I feel. And you can't understand why you stay or you try to make their "LUST" for you appear as the love you want them to have for you. Lust can never be love! So back to the question at hand; why do you stay; when you know that at any moment this person can get sick of being with you or sick of you caring for them the way you do.
Why do you continue to torture yourself? Or is it torture? And have you ever asked them why they don't feel the same way or asked them why they stay when they don't feel the same???
Go find the love that will love you the same or maybe they love you the same, but just can't show it!
