Adoring Someone Who Only Loves You - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites Podcast
Have you ever loved someone very differently than they loved you? Or maybe they didn’t even love you?
Being in love with someone is such a good feeling, right up until it isn’t. We’re at our best when we’re loving – we’re holding someone in the best possible light, seeing their virtues and not their flaws, we’re considering the object of our affection in our daily decisions, and we’re focused on helping make their life sweeter or easier or better.
When those feelings and actions aren’t reciprocated, it doesn’t feel very good, does it? We might have self-destructive thoughts, like if we were a better person, they would love us, or maybe if we do more for them, they would love us.
The truth is, sometimes someone we love doesn’t feel the same way, and that’s OK. It doesn’t feel ok as that realization comes to us like a kick in the gut, but just as you can’t be expected to be head-over-heels in love with everyone, neither does the object of your affection.
Don’t pour your sunshine into someone who doesn’t think of you as their sky. Chin up, darling, and move on. Focus all those feelings of love on yourself until the right one for you comes along.
