UNREQUITED LOVE.

‘Love sought is good, but given unsought is better’
(Twelfth night – Act 3, Scene 1)

Imagine a world where someone loves you so much, they could go all out for you.
Imagine a world where "I love you, sugar rush" could send shivers down your spine and make the hair on your skin stand.
Imagine a world where someone would make you the most important aspect of their life.
Imagine a world where you don't have to question how much you are loved, because he/she has made it a duty to show you for the rest of your lives.
Imagine a world where a nice comment will make your cheeks pink with blushes and your eyes watery for flattery.

How beautiful will it be when it's from both ends.
How awkward will it be when it is just a mono- effort.

Now enough imaginations, this things really do happen. Yes they do!
You go completely and entirely head over heels for someone and they tell you, "Hey, you are pest, I don't want you in my life".
When someone you deeply love screams at you "Don't you get it, I don't love you"..it makes you look creepy and weak and stupid.

When someone you love tells you " I have merely being tolerating you, you are not the one I love". It's heart breaking, soul wrenching.

Love is patient, Love is pure, Love is kind.
But Love is also mutual. Love should be felt on both ends. Love should get similar effects on both parties. Love should get similar efforts from both hearts.
No one deserves to go through the pains of one-sided love.

Unrequited Love is a love not returned.
Unrequited Love is an undying love for another that doesn't care a bit about you.
Unrequited Love is a partial love.
Unrequited Love is a "mono-love"

In Unrequited Love, we have the admirer and the beloved.
The Admirer is he who loves
The Beloved is he who is love.
Most times, the beloved is aware of the love from the admirer but choses not to acknowledge it because it is unwanted.
It has a form of veil that makes us conclude that love is indeed blind, as the admirer sees no fault in the wrongs of the beloved. The admirer goes through a lot of sufferings and insults yet with no intention of giving up
The belief is always that one day the beloved will realize and start to fall in love with the admirer and they live happily ever after.
That's true, In Movies!

The point here is, if you love yourself enough you will never resort to the damaging unrequited love. You want to know why?
Check out the effects of unrequited love
•Lack of Self-esteem
•Embarassment
•Troubled heart
•Self-consciousness
•Insults and Disgrace.
•Bitterness.

Nothing good comes out of Unrequited love except for the fact that you loved!...and unfortunately you were not loved in any measure at all.
Unrequited love is an insult and a betrayal of cupid.
It is an abuse of the feelings of love as it is incomplete.
It is a waste of the love hormones.

Love you enough not to Love unrequitedly.
Love is still a beautiful thing when it is returned!
