Our heart loves who it loves.. and no amount of advice from anyone is going to stop you loving someone whether its a bad or good relationship... I know... I have been there
it takes time.. each time he hurts you or each time you feel disappointed and sad, the love you have for him will die a little each time until one day you think.. ok .. enough is enough... but it will only happen when you are ready to start living your life instead of waiting or wishing for someone you cant have for whatever reasons

Agree with the above but it might help to do some self-counselling and ask yourself those questions you might not want to like ....
- why am I wasting another precious day of my life waiting for someone I may never be with?
- don't I deserve to be treated better than this?
- while you are pining over someone you may never be with you may not see that beautiful person right under your nose?
- sometimes things get in the way of love and if you can't get over those obstacles and it doesn't look like you can get around them, then cut your losses, accept it and mend your broken heart, day by day.
m0msie46: Do tell how do you stop loving someone you cant have? Met a wonderful guy on here 10 months ago - instant connection.....we have a beautiful strong bond and keep in contact daily .... we have only met up twice and have enjoyed being with each other but I want more .... he has always been upfront and honest with me and told me he cant commit to me but I sit and wait and hope...sounds so silly doesnt it...but he also knows how I feel and has told me time and time again to keep my options open and not focus on him but I cant I have tried dating, chatting but its not the same....someone tell me please ..... yes everyone has told me to forget about him and move on....but our bond is so strong we love each other as the best of friends and know we cant let a day go by without talking is this weird or wat??? No he is divorced and very single...
I think you should go out talk to other men, you don't need to move on exactly but keep your options open.
when he sees you having fun with other guys then he might realise how much he values you. or you might find someone you like even more.
and by "go out and talk to other men" i don't mean dating, i mean join a social club, a hiking group or toastmasters. if you go out just looking for friendship you may find something more.
and of course don't mention this guy to any men you meet

Hi momsie I've been in this situation myself - it was torturous and in the end, it just became too painful. I suspect you may keep hoping until it becomes too painful for you - or until you meet someone you like better. Don't worry, you will.:-) Good luck daisy333

Hey happy people an update...
After 13 months and 13 days believe it or not I let him go...not entirely but enough to be able to move on of course life long friends but anything else is and will be ridiculous and ruin what we have...
Our friendship is unconditional and forever and we will always be there for each other...since that day it feels my life has been changed..Im free with my thinking, I dont sit waiting on him anymore, yes we do talk still everyday and I guess the weight of knowing that I can find happiness just having his friendship is more than enough...
So 2011 is gonna be a great one for me, myself and I and my very special friend....
Cheers for everyones comments I wish you all a safe christmas and hope that 2011 will be your year also....xxx

PS...Just one more thing thanks CS I did meet this wonderful man on here so girls if you dont succeed with love at least theres hope with friendship...Being best friends isnt such a bad thing after all
holdengal: i find on here alot of questions people ask are being treated as a joke which is hardly fair i think if you cant give an honest opinion why give one at all
anyways momsie once you love someone i find it never really goes away once you give them that peice of your heart thats it im afraid what i have found thats helped me is knowing that time does heal and it does get easier you might have your momentary lapses but thats all it is a moment
And dont let him get away with anything either it is also his fault to from what i read that he encourages you he really shouldnt play you like that if he cant give you what you want then he should be more respectful of your feelings n not be in so much contact knowing how you feel about him.
so the constant phone calls n contact is definetly making you think wow ok i hvae a chance here when hes willingly contacting you knowing he will never be with you that to me is cruel and being a player on his side of the situation i also think he has a woman on the side n thats why he cant commit cause if you have this strong bond and your both single why would he say there is no chance at US i dont get that n from my experience it only leads to trouble try giving it some distance if only for a while for your own peace a mind n sanity and i find you never fall out of love with someone you just learn to live with out them i hope this has helped somewhat goodluck
Great advice, thats kind of advice I needed when I was going through a similar situation
