[quote:Louis in Richmond:MV8zOTY0Mjk3XzcxNjg2Mjk5XzZDNTkyNzZD] [quote:Glen coco:MV8zOTY0Mjk3XzcxNjg2MTk0XzEwQUVFNTg4] [quote:Louis in Richmond:MV8zOTY0Mjk3XzcxNjgzMDQwXzk0NzFDNUQ5] [b][b]Allow Yourself to Grieve; unrequited love is a loss.[/b][/b] "It is normal to feel grief, anger, denial, and all the other things a person might feel after loss. Your feelings about the person you love are real, and the hopes you had had are real. In our culture, we don’t give space to mourn the loss of unrequited love. We tend to say either “Go get ‘em, try harder, your love will win out eventually!” or “Stop being pathetic and get over it.” And neither of these are healthy. If the person you love isn’t interested, continuing to pursue them is both disrespectful to them and hurtful to you, as it delays your ability to heal. But there’s nothing pathetic about feeling deep sadness when a love you feel deeply isn’t returned. It’s okay to mourn. When the person you love is a friend, the fact that they clearly like you can make it even harder to process as a loss. No matter how many times you’ve said that you accept they aren’t interested in you romantically, moments of warmth and closeness can bring the fires of hope flickering back to life. You may end up going through the grief process multiple times. I certainly have, with many of the friends I’ve pined for. It’s frustrating. It’s hard not to feel foolish, wrestling with the same anger and sadness you thought you’d moved past two months ago. The important thing is to remember that these feelings are normal – and healthy. They take you toward healing, even if the road seems impossibly long and twisted."

You have strength you've never realized. [/quote]
