When you love someone who no longer loves you, or never did?

and they are completely out of your life, but still in your head: Is it abnormal to accidentally seek other people like them, and to look for them in someone else? It seems like this is a bit abusive toward the surrogate lover. Do you have to wait several years and take brain damaging drugs; forget the person, then start from scratch to have a normal relationship? If so: Would not the pathetic anti social morning and drug abuse stray you further away from mutual love than the one sided affair. Obviously I'm not talking about sex, so; there is no such thing, and emotions have at least been allowed to flow, and I am asking if allowing someone to fall in love with you who you do not love is abusive. Maybe I'm saying it is, and am asking why someone would do it, and how someone would properly recuperate from it without abusing themselves or someone else.When you love someone who no longer loves you, or never did?
Time heals. Seems bad now, but I went through some too. In time it will get better.





I personally think you don't have to forget the person in order to get rid of your aching. Unfortunately it ended up that she couldn't see me anymore. When you love someone who no longer loves you, or never did?
It is called self-controll, human nature not to want to hurt another person, love for your fellow man or woman not to inflick heartache on another person. If you need drugs to be human then that may be why you cant have a normal relationship.


Yes it is very abusive to pretend to have feelings for another person that you dont have!!!
you should just take some time for yourself and concentrate on you, and before you realize it you will no longer think or try to find that person in someone else. Do things you like and enjoy!!!! someone else will come your way .
its not uncommon, but is bad for your psychiatric health.


just move on and try to find someone that loves you the same way you love them.
i say move on
Yes, that can happen. Yes, it is unfair to the other person.





The best thing a person can do for themselves is to first find the love that one seeks from others within oneself. If you are completely self loving and self maintaining and love is not a carrot for you to grab after, then the love that you choose will be healthy.





There is a really good book called the ';Mastery of Love'; by Don Miguel Ruiz. In it he makes an analogy about love. I recommend it as it is at the least an interesting read.





The premise of one chapter is along these lines. If you are literally starving and someone comes along and says. ';Hey, I have this pizza and all you have to do to eat it is to do what I say'; Now that person can control you in all sorts of ways because you need food and you will do anything to get it.





However, if you have your own kitchen and you make beautiful food everyday and share it with friends. In fact, anyone who comes to you hungry never leaves your presence being hungry. At this point, no one can ever come to you and bribe, control or abuse you with something you already have in abundance. You don't need them for food. You have plenty to share. Substitute love for food and you get the idea.





Love is like that. The minute you are truly full of joy and love all by your lonesome, magic things happen. At the very least, no one will ever be able to hurt you or control you with the most powerful emotion we all feel.





Good luck. It sounds like you are having some pain. I hope you see your way through it.
i fell in love with my best friend but he didnt feel the same way. i dont think it was his fault that i fell in love with him, he was just being himself.





and i did accidentally seek other people like him. i realized by doing that, i was actually avoiding potential partners. no 2 people are the same and i doubt you will ever find someone like this girl. keep your eyes open for anyone you may like, even if they're different than this girl. your heart will make the decision of who you like and dont like.





i finally gave up on my best friend and found someone who was a better fit for me than my best friend. ive been with him for 2 years and would never leave him for my best friend.

Is really so difficult to fall in love?

Hello everybody.. I’m an 18-years old-girl, I live in a very small town lost somewhere in the worst European country, and maybe the worst country in the whole world.. I was born and I’m living in Italy -.-‘’ a horrible place with disgusting people, I hate this shitty hell and I’ll leave it and move to London as soon as I finish the High School next July.








I’ve got a lot of problems, I’ve been getting a terrible loneliness under my skin since I was 10, I’ve never been loved by anyone (starting with my parents) and I’ve never loved someone, I’ve never had a real friend, nor a boyfriend or a girlfriend (I mean, someone to fall in love with, not just someone to have sex with.. also because idk why but people here are all asexual @.@ I can have sex with someone only when I go in another country, don’t ask me the reason of this, it’s one of the things that are driving me crazy @.@).. I suffered sexual harassment when I was 10 and since then I suffered sexual trauma for about 5 years. I’ve been left alone by my parents, I suffered that hell all by myself, thinking people didn’t like me because I was wrong, I was guilty, I was disgusting. This lasted 5 years, and when I was 15 things slowly started to change, I got out of my trauma, started to have some kind of friends and finally surpassed my sex phobia. I felt like I was the queen of the universe for about two months, it was pure happiness.. but after that short period I realized things were not really changed. I was deeply changed, but people were still avoiding me, my “friends” were insincere and fake, no one feeling something for me. I thought I was too fat, and so too ugly (and actually it was true) to be loved by someone, so I went on diet and I lost almost 44 pounds in 2 years time, I tried to adopt different attitudes with people, trying to understand which was the right one, which one people would like. But no one has ever liked me (and I’ve never liked someone too, people here are all uninteresting, insignificant, close-minded and I’ve never had a feeling for someone), and this is still happening. It’s like I’m invisible, people don’t see me, I can’t start talking to someone, it’s like I really don’t exist. People here are all very antisocial, they have their provincial mentality and no interests, they’re not interested in travelling, knowing people, have experiences and so on, and this is actually a reason why it’s hard to find friends for me, and to fall in love. But this is not the only reason, and I’m afraid I’ve got something wrong inside me, I’m afraid things won’t change even when I’ll be in London or wherever else in the world.. I’ve never fallen in love (just a one-week crush last summer *.*)and I’m afraid of this, I’m afraid this will never happen, I’m afraid of I don’t clearly know what. How can I understand why am I wrong, what’s the wrong with me, why I can’t be someone’s Love Of My Life? Falling in love seems to be the easiest thing in world, it’s in every song, in every poem, in everyone’s eyes, but it doesn’t exist for me.. is really so difficult to fall in love? ):








Sorry for my pitiful English, and thank you for your answers (:Is really so difficult to fall in love?
Falling in love is one of those things that you can neither stop, nor control. It just happens, and when it does happen you will know it. I'm sorry that you suffered sexual harassment as such a young age, and had to go through that all. But when you fall in love, you will know it and you wont know when it will happen but it will. It's even harder to fall out of love once your in it. Just be your own person and learn to be comfortable in your own skin. If something doesn't suit you then change it, and if you want something done you must do it. Become the person you want to be, and try to build up a very very steady confidence. It will help you with a lot of things. And only after you've accepted everything about yourself and contoured yourself to what you want to be, then you can truly live your life and fall in love.Is really so difficult to fall in love?
You have to like yourself before you can expect anyone else to like you. Find things about yourself you love and focus on them. Your attitude and confidence will change. It will be easy to find love and friends.
okay you dont know when you fall in love, it just happens...
Um, there are more fish in the sea.....just grab a rod?
OH MY GOD!


you're italian, 18 years old and you speak English like that!??


you deserve a meddle that's excellent!





it just happens later for some people but... 18 is still young dating wise you have decades ahead of you don't worry about it!





you can stay with me in London when you're ready ;)
falling in love...is not easy and its not hard...all that has to happen is you meet someone one day or night, and you can tell that your attracted to eachother....but the huge part is thers more, you get to know eachother,,,,the good and the bad, help eachother smile more, laugh more, cry less...frienship blooms, and one day you realize, i cant imagine ever being without this person in your life---


alot of people think they are in love but there not...love is pure and its a gift. if you want to find love it Will happen, but you must have patience.





life is full of ups and downs. some people have had very sheltered lucky lives


others have gone through hell


we are all human


and we are survivors-we learn to cope and become stronger because we are the future!





everyone wants to be loved


but not everyone is patient


patience is a virtue





peace and love

Falling in love is not difficult. What IS difficult is finding the right one to be in love with. It's hard to explain, but when you are in love, you just know! It's just an unexplainable feeling. I believe there is someone out there for everyone. You just need to be patient!

  • Have you ever fallen out of love with someone? How do you tell yor parnter that ur attracted to someone else?

    Most couples fall out of love with their first few (or many) partners until they are older, and have had the time to meet someone right and at the right time.





    It's a common thing, and let me tell you - there is no point in dragging a relationship out when you're not happy.





    Get with your partner and tell him/her that you're not happy anymore and need to move on. If they ask if you're interested in someone else, then it's up to you whether or not you want to tell them. It might be wise to be completely honest, but not too graphic about it.





    Just don't make the same mistake my brother did - he told his ex he wasn't happy and just wanted to be single. Then started seeing another girl soon after. His ex found out, realised he lied, and it knocked her confidence badly.





    Try and end it nice and neat, rather than messy and full of lies.





    Good luck!Have you ever fallen out of love with someone? How do you tell yor parnter that ur attracted to someone else?
    Yes I've fallen out of love before, and DON'T tell your partner that you like somebody else! Just break up with them nicely, then wait a while and go out with the other person!!!Have you ever fallen out of love with someone? How do you tell yor parnter that ur attracted to someone else?
    I would tell my partner that I would like to take a break and see what else is out there. Because it would be better to hurt his or her feelings NOW, than to cheat on them and make it worse in the end. The longer you stay in a relationship you don't want to be in, the worse off it will be in the end. Have that talk as soon as you find the right moment.
    Yes I have. Of course, it was because he was abusive and I could not take it anymore but if you feel that you have fallen out of love you need to let that person know. I mean true love is not that love feeling where you feel butterflies, it is way after that and after you have put so much time and effort into it. If you feel that you can not deal with it anymore, you must let your partner know. The best way to let them know is first by letting them know that you want the best for them and it is not fair that you are not feeling the same as they are. They will respect you more if you are honest with them.

    How is it easy to fall out of love?

    They say falling in love is easy but falling out of love is one of the hardest things to do..i agree personally. my ex told me when he dumped me, that he fell out of love with me. But two days before he dumped me he told me he loved me with all his heart but i could feel he was lying. He said he was just randomly thinking to himself that he didnt think he was in love with me anymore because he didnt have the desire to see me that day,and we argued too much. i know it was probably just another girl involved also so i didnt count that out im not naive. Everyone argues! EVERYONE so i think thats just a dumb excuse to fall out of love with someone. I agree that if you can fall out of love that easily, you were never in love in the first place.How is it easy to fall out of love?
    Something that most people misunderstand about love, is that it isn't something that you fall in and out of. It is something that you work at. Not that it's hard all the time. In fact, the best love is easy to do. But it's just that, it is something that you do. Love is a verb. You don't fall out of love with someone, you Stop loving them. You stop putting any effort into the relationship. You think more about yourself than the one that you 'love'. It's not just a switch that you turn on and off, it's something that you have to do.How is it easy to fall out of love?
    Falling out of love is not easy. I personally just broke up with my boyfriend of 4 years, and it was teh hardest thing I have ever done. I do still love him, but I think that we just cant fit good together. We fight ALOT, and we have to much taht we disagree on. Perhaps your boyfriend (ex) is in teh same boat? Maybe he does care but he feels like in the long run things would just end badly.





    Things will get better though, or at least so Im told %26lt;3
    It's pretty godamn easy if you're someone like me who gets uninterested easily. It's not a bad thing, you can't help it. I'd say it's equally easy to fall in and out of it, but one day you find that special person who you fall for as easy as that.
    falling in love isn't easy, its thrilling-not easy! falling out of love is very very easy
    '; i could feel he was lying';





    You went with your gut, which is almost always the right way to go.
    I disagree. I think falling in love is hard and falling out of love is easy...
    if u have to ask yourself, ';am i in love?'; then ur not.
    most people confuse love with lust.. im sure that's what he did however sometimes people think they are in love then as they get to know the true you find out that they are in for more then they bargained for i have fallen out of love before but after years of abuse one can expect that





    its not easy to fall out of love at all when people change your love slowly starts fading away the next thing you know your not in love with them however if you were or are in a serious relationship with this person you will always think about them and wonder what if i still have feelings for him/her chances are your just lonely or horny

    How long does it take to fall in love with someone. What causes it.?

    i feel like i'm in love with my girlfriend of 3 months, we talk a lot more than we actually spend time making out etc. Dont really want to have sex with her yet. our feelings are mutual. So?How long does it take to fall in love with someone. What causes it.?
    it depends.


    you can fall in love at firs sight and you can fall in love with a friend you knew for twenty years.. it's about that special moment.


    about the second part of the question; dopamine, serotonin, adrenaline and endorphin.How long does it take to fall in love with someone. What causes it.?
    it takes from 1 second to years to fall in love, depending on how hard it hits you.





    what causes it? when you connect on all levels, spiritually, emotionally, psycologically, sexually...with whoever you're with and you know that your life would never be the same without that person.





    is that what you feel for your girlfriend? i envy her that....
    Love is a tricky thing. Sometimes you feel like your are in love but really it is just lust. From what it sounds like it isn't lust. You might be in love, but I would give it sometime. Love is something that just feels right, and if this feels right to you then that is wonderful.
    It took me a day to fall in love with my boyfriend...





    I fell in love with him so deeply...





    I still do, even after three years.





    Pheromones cause it, which is pretty much like finger prints for people. And apparently, you're attracted to HER body odor :P
    it takes a minute to know some someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a life time to forget someone. you remember that, and you remember it well before saying I love you. ;)
    Nobody can tell you how long it takes to fall in love or what causes it because it changes by the person and by the situation.
    so what? you love her. what do you want us to say. why are you asking a question you already know the answer to????
    I guess you are in love already,but don't know it yet.


    Sometimes it takes ages,sometimes one second is anough
    It takes more than just a few months in order to be true love. Sounds like you may be working on it though.
    There is no time limit involved in falling in love with someone. The way that person makes you feel is the main cause.
    Well i think some times love at first sight . and some time it take a little longer until you get to know each other
    we can't say precisely. may be coincidence.
    there is no time set.


    but having sex is not right to judge about how much ur into love


    let time pass by and u'll urself know how much u r in need of each other
    There is no set time...everyone is individual. You feel it, when you feel it !!!!
    as long as it takes
    What the question here?

    Girls is it special if you fall in love with someone who is not your type?

    My ex and i never told each other we loved each other because we were never serious that long but her friend told me that she talks to her every night about how she wishes she would say it. The weird thing is she always told me when we were going out that i wasnt her type. She likes guys who dont play sports and have alot of free time and dont go with the flow and go to the dances. I do all those things. Is it something special to fall in love with someone who you never thought you could?Girls is it special if you fall in love with someone who is not your type?
    yeah its special if you fall for someone thats not your type.. that means you went out of the box and took someone for what they are and not what you normally wantGirls is it special if you fall in love with someone who is not your type?
    I never thought i'd fall for my bf (been dating for 3 years). Because he wasn't what i normally liked. But i dont think you fall in love with what a person does in his spare time or how he dresses or what stereotype he is in highschool. (if you are in highschool, but by the way you wrote that you sound like you are) You fall in love with the person and sometimes people will surprise you and sometimes they will act exactly how the ';stereotype'; of them acts. You asked if it was somethign special to fall in love with someone you never thought you could? and i think the answer is: any time you fall in love is special, if your really in love with that person. By the way, we didn't need to know how tall you are and about you abs... definently not about your abs.
    I think so. Someone always.. or mostly, has this typical guy/girl that they think they will be happy with and then someone that's the total opposite shows up and you find yourself falling for that person.
    yea cuz its like wow how can someone like u be just wat i wanted

    You don't need a reason to fall in love, and you fall in love with someone who you don't even know, why? ?

    I'm not only talking about love at first sight, but it's hard to get to know someone well even after a whole week, a whole month, sometimes even longer. Yet your heart starts yearning for this person when he or she is out of sight, you feel like you want to see him or her again and again.





    Sometimes you know that this person is not made for you, due to your own circumstances and situations, so even though you know, why does this heart feel so restless and full of pain?





    Is it possible to fall in love with someone within a month and so deep that you forget yourself and your feelings? Even though I knew this person will have to go back home, I still never thought of myself, I didn't get the chance to think about myself. It's amost three months since he's gone, and I still have the same feelings for him, I'm still looking around desperately for him and I still want him to come back.





    Am I in love, really? What shall I do? Shall I tell him, how I've become crazy for him? He has confessed his love for me, but if this is love, why is love written in our fate if destiny can't bring us together? If I haven't confessed my love for him, that's because I don't want to hurt my heart even more, because I know after telling him, he will be happy and I'll be yearning to see his face glowing in my love.You don't need a reason to fall in love, and you fall in love with someone who you don't even know, why? ?
    There are many reasons for falling in love, and as you stated, your mind and feelings tell you, this isn't right or won't work. Those usually are the right feelings.


    But that feeling of being ';In Love'; can be overwhelming and drowns out the rational part of our beings.


    I read a long time ago, that when we fall for some stranger, and way to fast to be based on the knowledge of that person, it's usually because, they are so close a reflection of some one you loved as a child. It could have been a parent, aunt or uncle, or teacher. But someone, who cared for you, and loved you dearly.


    So when you meet someone, who brings back those memories, they stir up those old feelings of love. Even though, you can't recall who the original person was. But feelings run deep and stay with us, most of our lives.


    He's been gone three months now, and that feeling hasn't left you. However, it's more like a feeling of loss or regret, you are feeling now.


    If you had been together for three months, and learned more about him, would your feeling of love still be the same? I doubt it.


    Love is blind, and it often takes time, for our eyes to open and see that person for who they really are. What you see then, may delight and please you, and can turn into true love, and on the other hand, may cause you to say to yourself, ';What the hell was I thinking?';


    So if destiny doesn't give you a chance to confess your love, you will just have to live with a sweet memory of what might have been.


    One of those ship board romances or two ships that pass in the night.


    Don't worry, if this one doesn't come to pass, there will be others that will and perhaps be a lot more real and true for you.You don't need a reason to fall in love, and you fall in love with someone who you don't even know, why? ?
    you pretty much just summed up my situation. i would call that love and i would definitely tell him. it could be written in your fate and destiny just cant bring you together right now...just tell him and see where that takes you..
    Its not love, love does not hurt you like this, this is infatuation and it is bad. You will eventually get over him when you meet someone else.
    That's too long
