Have you ever loved someone so much it hurt, the hurt coming from the fact that you know your sentiment will never be returned?
It sucks.
I've liked this person for maybe 4 years now, and I'm just now realizing that I love them. Unfortunately, this is a case where I know for certain that my sentiments just won't be reciprocated, no matter what I do. So I just prayed this afternoon as I was putting away chairs and stands in the band room, asking God to just relieve my suffering.
I'm grateful for having this person in my life as a friend, and I hope I can continue to be friends with them for a long time. But as for what I feel for them, what I want for them...I have to let it go.
It's saddening. I wanted to just cry and let my frustration out, but my body wouldn't permit me. Later, I fell asleep in the green recliner while I was reading my psych book, just wanting to be in their arms, close to them.
I felt better when I woke up. It didn't change much, but I felt better.
Still, unrequited love...it sucks.
