When you go years just going on dates and not finding the one that gives you that spark. But eventually you find them. Then the realization occurs that the feelings aren't mutual, even after telling them about your feelings. Yet they continue to drag you along. Deep down it hurts, but you don't want to lose them. Afterall, so much energy was put into trying to create a relationship. Eventually you can't take it anymore. So you make your peace with them and begin to ignore them and move on. Even though it's difficult, just keep going. One day you'll realize that you survived without them before and you can do it again.
