Someone will love you again: You. You need to do what's most loving for yourself. Don't trap yourself in a relationship because you won't be loved again. You will always be loved by yourself, your friends, your family, and yes, by lovers. So many people in this world love you that I doubt you even know who all of them are. But the most important love is your self-love, and you need to groom that. Please take care of yourself.

Life is a continuous process, and so is love. If you're unhappy with your present relationship, leave. I'm pretty sure that in time someone will come in your life and fill that empty space in your heart when you lost someone. Don't rush. If it's meant to be, it will be. Sometimes you have to let go so that there's a space for better things

I had the exact same problem once,I knew that my partner loved me but I did not feel needed , I was quit unhappy at the time I think . I had these breakup thoughts quit a lot but it took my months to actually break up just because I thought that no one else would be as patiently as he was with me and I could never imagine someone loving my body and how I am as a person like he did. Then I remembered that all that really matters is my happiness and if I'm not happy with the relationship I'm currently in (or any other reasons ) then I need to let go. It's no good for anyone staying and trying to save something you already gave up / you not believe in . If you want to break up , if you have reasons to / if you feel like it , then do it. You'll find someone , just love yourself first

If you really feel that it isn't working out then you need to because staying with someone under fear is not the right reason to be with someone. you will find love someday everyone does.

If your relationship is abusive or unhealthy and you want to break up -- it's important to do so. Remember that there are worse things than being alone (like being abused or manipulated)! But it sounds to me like you're suffering from low self-esteem. Be gentle with yourself, and learn how to treat yourself with respect to make better choices -- you will attract love.

If someone has loved you before, another can love you again. In staying with this relationship you are robbing yourself of a truly loving relationship. Ask yourself why you don't feel as though someone will love you again, think of the best and worst case scenario of leaving your current relationship and think about whether the best case scenario is worth the risk.

You shouldn't force yourself to stay in a relationship if you're unhappy. Your fear of being alone is unfair to your partner because everyone deserves to love and to be loved mutually. Before you decide to end the relationship, maybe you should have a serious discussion with your partner as to why you want to end things if the reason has something to do with your partner or their behavior. If the reason you want to breakup is because you simply don't feel love for them anymore, then it might be for the best that you end things so that both you and your partner can find someone who makes you both happy.

If you wish to break up with someone, but are too scared to, then I would say do the following: Over ten counts, take a deep breath, and then exhale over ten counts. You will be loved by someone, so you should have no fear of not being loved. Someone will always be there to love you and support, especially here on 7 Cups!! I know for one thing, is that I will always love you, and anyone, for ever and ever!! Your parents will always love you, your listeners and everyone here on 7 Cups!!! You should have no fear of the fact that no one would love you ever again, but there will be plenty who do love you! So Keep on Keepin' On!

Don't think negatively. You need to do what's best for you and someone will fall in love with who you are. It might not happen there and then but it will happen eventually. The one who loves you and will do anything for you is the one worth waiting for. Don't settle for less; settle for your ideal person.
