Unrequited Love

Now I am starting to get confused whether I’ll post this entry in this Senti Queen blog or in my other blog It’s My World, Stupid.  Thus, I am making a resolve from now on that my ”more emotional or senti” entries will be posted here while my ”kikay or taray-mode” entries shall be posted there.

Unrequited love.  I think everyone, at one point in their lives, has experienced this.  Don’t get me wrong, guys.  I am not currently in such state.  I am just reminded of this sort of thing when it became our unintended theme last night during our KTV session (Gracey, Anto, Jeff, and me).

It was a night of singing songs about bizzare love triangles and of scenarios like mahal kita-mahal mo siya-mahal niya ay iba , mahal kita kahit na nagmumukhang tanga, kahit mahal mo siya mahal naman kita, mahal kita maging sino ka man, mahal kita hindi ito bola, and kahit anong gawing lambing di mo pa rin pansin.  So pathetic. Hahaha!  Anyway, we’re not that pathetic in real life.  Medyo lang…

I first experienced unrequited feelings when I lost my high school crush to another school.  Then in college, a crush either treated me like a younger sister, friend, or simply just a blockmate.  I had a lot of crushes who took my fancy for weeks, months, or for some, even years. But that’s all to it— a feeling of deep longing or admiration for someone who possesses a single trait or two that I am looking for in a person. 

The other day, a good friend forwarded this message to me: People say they love you at the right moments in their lives… then disappear at the wrong moments of yours. People do the sweetest thing when their love is new… then one day they just turn bitter and cold.  People fall in love and eventually somehow one day, they just fall out of it.

I admit, I am guilty of that at times.  But most often than not, I fall out of love with my crushes or boyfriends the moment I start to feel that my love is not being appreciated in return.  In short, unrequited.  A friendship may last a lifetime even if there is no mutual affection but a love relationship?? 

I don’t think a love will last if it remains to be a one-way street.
