Unrequited Love

Move on or you're just asking to be hurt.

  I agree with Mr.J, you need to forget all about him, he 's not ready to commit to anyone.  You'll just be hurt.  Find someone who will love you back.

The practical thing to do is think about your own needs. Are you fulfiled in this relationship? Sounds as though this gentalman has many admirers-do you feel it's worth it to be caught up in the drama? My advice is to set boundries. Explain to this man that you have needs that should be met. Put yourself 1st, love yourself & put a stop to the game playing. I'm sure this gentleman is quit flatered by all the attention & as long as you play along it won't end. Draw a line-explain you have boundries for your own self preservation. Life is short & there is no reason for you to come in 2nd or even 3rd for that matter-live your life with the self respect that you are one of a kind & should NEVER be put on the back burner. Chances are, if you lay down grouned rules & stick to them, he will have much more respect for you & find you much more appealing. Good Luck & God Bless

Unrequited Love is something that needs to be mourned over (like death) and then move on with your life.  Life does go on, even after death. 

 Life, after a situation like the one you have described, will go on, but you are the mover and the shaker of that life.  If you continue with this sort of "friendship" in which you feel one way and he feels another, you'll be miserable for the rest of your life. 

 Say, Farewell to this fellow even friendship wise, because you deserve better and you know it.  Mourn the situation as much as you need to, but treat it as if it were a death, which is what it is.

You said he admits to "never being romantically attracted to females, thought he is physically attracted." You did not say if he is gay or bisexual, but its sounds like a definite possibility. If so it's akin to trying to put a round peg in a square hole (no puns intended)for you to think of the two of you being romantic; he's just not wired that way (it sounds like). So I agree with Ajoy (and the others too for that matter). Mourn the "death" of the loving feelings you had for him and let that go; otherwise, it will only frustrate you. Accept the reality and move on and find a guy who will be romantically attracted to you; until you get this guy out of your head and heart, it will make finding the right guy more difficult. I like the analogy used by NJoy (above) comparing getting past unrequieted love to mourning death, processing it and moving on. That is an accurate, the empty feeling from unrequieted love can feel like the loss of someone you cared deeply for or loved. Well done NJoy. Rob
