How do you get over unrequited love?

Experiencing unrequited love is one of the most painful things I've been trough. It took me a long time to get past that wall, and what I can say to heal others is to allow yourself to completely let yourself go and cry about it. It sounds simple. But what I mean is; whenever the thought of the person comes into your mind, you cry. Always. Don't resent or hold your feelings back. The more you hold back, the longer it'll take to heal your heartbreak. You can't force another person to love you back. Just realise how blessed you were for having the experience of feeling love. Not everyone is lucky to find love, or fall in love. So celebrate that. Love that person in your heart, even if they don't love you back. And once you've done that fully, try to understand that love in itself is worth feeling, it is just us humans that makes love complicated. But you just had an experience where you got to understand what it is that you truly desire in a person. Take that knowledge and honor it in knowing it will come an opportunity for you where you will get those feelings back one day too. Embrace the fact that the love you feel now will change into friendship. And lastly, honor yourself with compassion and self love as you let them go. Because you are worthy of so much more than you know.

What's important is to fall in love with other parts of life. There is that person you love, who isn't returning feelings, but there's so much more out there than one person. Listen to music that makes you happy, go places that distract you, hang out with friends who can make you smile and laugh, and work on loving the world around you so that one person seems insignificant in comparison.

self worth is the key. on this planet our first responsibility is our own self. so giving you time to a person who dont love you back is disrespecting our own self

As difficult as it is and as perfect as you may see that person to be, there are others. There always are. There are over 7 billion people on this Earth, it is hard to believe that there can only be one possibility for you. Believe me, even if you're LGBTQ (I'm lesbian, I understand the struggle to find a partner), there are always others. Always. Even if it takes a while longer to find them.

Crying, eating a lot of ice cream and talking with good friends. I realized that I was the only person in the relationship and it is not healthy to fixate on a person who doesn't like you the same way back.

You need to remember that you see fine before you met them and that you are confident and that somewhere in the world there is over 1000 people who would love to date you

Accept the fact that he/she doesnt feel the way we feel for them. If they dont feel the same way then it cant be helped. Another way is spending much less time with that person. As we spend much less time around that person, the less we think about them.

This is a hard one: the only thing I can say here is that you know how you feel for this person, but if they do not feel the same, then it's their loss.

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
