is it a bad thing to stay in love with someone who left you?

It is not bad however it could hurt you more potential for they may move on with someone new so you may therefore feel more hurt by them and also I guess the only person you will truly hurt is yourself so it could be bad on you in the long run but it’s not bad to stay in love with them if it won’t affect you when they move on. People leave for numerous reasons but you must remember that it’s not your fault and I guess if you are still in love with them you care a lot about them and understand that maybe parting is best but you may also have wished it never had to happen

No, feelings don't go away just like that. I was in a situation like that in my last relationship, but it destroyed me. If they left you, move on, whether you want to or not, its healthier to try to move on than entertain those feelings. It becomes harder when you have settled on being friends but it isn't impossible to shake them. I believe that chasing after that person is unhealthy and will stunt your personal growth. You need to be strong, understand it's over and work on yourself. It feels better once you're done with all of that and feel better.

If you’re heart once belonged to someone then even after the person hurt you the feeling will always be there maybe not as strong but you will always still feel something but you should find someone who wants to be with you not someone who chose not to because you always deserve great things for yourself and a person who really cares about you I wouldn’t say it’s a bad thing to stay in love but I think u should move on and find someone worth your time in stress of getting back with the person that left you cause I feel getting back with an ex is like the watching a movie amd expecting a different ending ,but always follow your heart because it knows best

it's not a "bad" thing per say, it's something leads to self destructive behavior and should be dealt with accordingly. one must accept that if they don't want stay, you can't make them and hence it's better to move on. if you love someone moving on takes time which is only natural. do we get mad at a wound for not healing quickly? no. then why at ourselves? you please take time but in time make sure that it doesn't affect you anymore and you do indeed move on in the true sense of the phrase. at the end of the day self love always triumphs. #movingon

In my opinion, if they left for a bad reason & the relationship was very toxic then yes it is a bad thing because there is someone out there who is willing to love you without leaving you. I have a relationship right now where we’re having issues because of me but leaving each other isn’t an option because we both love each other so much & are willing to work on it. I don’t think it’s a bad thing if it wasn’t toxic because obviously there will still be some feelings left, I have experienced that but it gets better

No it is not a bad thing to still be in love with someone who left you. Getting over someone is something that takes time, lots of time. You have to be patient. You'll get over that person one day. You will eventually find someone else to love and you will forget about the person you are still in love with right now. You will not forget the memories you had with the person, but you will no longer love them like a significant other. it is okay to love them still for the time being. Hope that helps :)

It is not a bad thing, but it is not a good thing. You want to move on if they left and it all really depends on the situation. That person can stay in your heart for the rest of your life or you could find someone else who you love just as much or more. It really depends on who they were and how they left but eventually you will move on or they will stay in your heart forever. It is really up to you if it is a bad thing or not sometimes its a good thing and you learn from it.

I guess it's not a matter of a bad thing or good thing if you're still in love with a person who left you. I mean we're primarily talking about your feelings if you're still in love with that person, and feelings are not bad because it is a part of you. It is only a part of you and doesn't define you. But let me tell you that there is a difference between feelings and actions. When you decide to stay in love with that person, it is a matter of your choice. So to sum up, if you still feel that you're in love, it's okay to be true to our feelings. If you decide to stay in love, it's okay too, just keep in mind to take responsibility to your actions. :)

its not bad. its natural. i was torn after a boyfriend broke up with me and I still loved and cared for him as a person. I was hurt that he left me, but that didn't change the way that i felt towards him. Even though were not together anymore, I still hope that he is doing well and that he is living his best life. Everything happens for a reason. We don't always immediately get over people who left us. It is natural for people to still have feelings after someone leaves them because humans emotionally attach themselves to people that they love and care for. You are not alone.

Love is not an easy emotion to leave behind. Love in itself is very complex and that is why we don’t simply fall in love with just anybody. So when we do find someone who we can laugh with, confide in, and be vulnerable with, it’s hard to let go. It is important to remember that love is not limited to one. Often times we hold on to ended relationships because we are afraid that we will find love nowhere else. This is not the case. When we are in love we believe they are the only person we could ever love, so when the relationship ends, we latch onto that idea. While it is not inherently bad to hold onto love, committing to a one sided relationship will only hurt us in the end.
