Not that love doesn't exist, but nobody is anybody's property and we should take responsibility of our own acts. So, when you leave a relationship, close the door, don't bang it...and try to have less guilty feelings by being virtuous on every step. If you leave a relationship knowing that you did all you could to make it happen, plus mind exercise that she is free to love whoever she wants...you will suffer less. The only thing ou can do is to do everything you can for her to love you. But she is free to wanting to like it or deny it, no matter how good you think you are. Let are choose to be whoever she wants to be. If you recognise her those rights, you will find it easier to let go. Just cry for the record.
