Well I would normaly tell you that  if you love him, try and work it out, but you should under no surrcumstances, know matter how much you love someone, let someone treat you like shi*, you are worth so much more than that..... but if you love him let him go, and if it was ment to be him will come back    good luck and god bless

heres to an old addage (SP?)... if you love something... let it go... if it comes back to you... it's yours.... \nIf she wants to study overseas... and you put the brakes on that... she may wind up resenting you for that... (possibly for the rest of her life)... Sometimes to love someone... you have to do things that you don't like doing... you have to put their best interests in mind... \nI can't tell you how much you love her... I don't know... but I do know that you don't want to pressure her into staying... that's a decision she should make entirely on her own...

Everybody gets discouraged at some point in time. Do NOT give up. If you keep at it, there's a chance that someday you'll get what you want. If you give up, then it's never gonna happen! The worst thing that can happen is that you don't make it big-but, if you really love music, then it wasn't a waste of your time, because you spent it doing something that you loved!

Of course!  People say that you can always find someone better...and you might, but what if your heart doesn't want or can't handle "better"?  \n\nUm, but there's that old saying "if you love something let it go, if it comes back it's yours....".  I truly believe this is true.  \n\nI lost a really great guy almost a year ago.  Another great guy came into my life, but I didn't want him.  My heart cannot forget my ex.

A lot of people will probably tell you to move on and that there are more fish in the sea. But I fell in love with the older friend of a cousin and for 3 years I loved him as much as I could in a "friend way" ( he knew the whole time how I felt about him and always told me that he only cared for me as a friend and that I should go look for someone who could love me the way I wanted and needed to be loved. I am very stubborn and wouldn't give up. About 3 years into our close friendship I decided to co on a date with another guy. When my friend realized that I might not always be there he did some serious thinking.. We've been together for 2  and a half years and married for 1. So my advice is that you really truly care about this guy then dint give up. But do play a little hard to get. Make him work for it a bit.

Maybe you should take your mind off boys and relationships for the moment.\n\nHave you given thoughts to your own career? Set your own priorities right.\n\nLet me share what someone told me when I parted with my first love (so many years ago)\n\n"If you love something, let it go.\nIf it comes back, then it is yours to keep.\nIf it did not come back, it was never yours in the first place"\n\nThink about it. Good luck. :)

Listen to their advice & opinions, but ultimately--the decision is yours to make.  Whatever your decision is though, know that you could be in for a world of hurt, or you might have found the love of a lifetime. Only time will tell, and only you can decide that.  Give it some time & see where it goes.\n\nGood luck!

no. even if you think that the person with you now is the one you really love, you need to save some for yourself :)

Try a different career or change your hobby. I know the feeling. Don't give up. Good Luck!

I would pursue what it is that you love.\n\nIf you are just doing something for money, you aren't going to be committed to doing it well.  That means that you don't get the best paying jobs--and you may even lose your job because of poor performance.  This is all assuming that you are interested enough to actually complete the degree.\n\nIf you have a love for something, you will find a way to support yourself doing it--because you have that passion that will lead you to excel.  Passion is worth something far greater than money.\n\nFollow your heart.

Apologize...if that's truly how you feel & then understand an old saying and stick by it:  If you Love something set it free; if it comes back then it was always yours to begin with.  If it was meant to be and you're lucky enough to get another chance...Don't make the same "mistake" again.  EVER.  It goes right along with another old saying:  It isn't always greener on the other side of the fence...GOOD LUCK.\n\nSincerely,\n\nBS from Canada

You should maintain a balance in love and sacrifices. Only sacrifice yourself as much as you can for the one you love. if you sacrifice too much of yourself then you wont be you anymore. So, what is there left for you partner to love. May i suggest offerings instead of sacrifices. Offer her opporitunities that together the two of you can build a stronger realtionship, instead of sacrificing a part of yourself or something that you may regret later.

The purpose justifies the means !!!! If you have the purpose to conquer his heart do it by all means and don't  regret of anything!! Otherwise in the end you can remain just with your regrets!!!

If you think giving up life is good then give up. Yes you can rest a while and start another attemt only if you are convinced that you are right.

When you really love someone, letting go is very hurting and difficult.  If the one you love is the one asking you to let her go, gently ask her for the reasons why.  If her answers are valid and for the good of both of you, you should let her go no matter how difficult it is.  Your feeling that you can't let her go is natural for someone who loves truly.  But letting go is better than keeping a relationship which is a one-sided love affair, meaning it is you who wants to keep the relationship when the other does not.  There will be lots of problems and heartaches along the way when you do that because you can never make someone happy who possibly does not love you anymore or who has reasons to say goodbye to you other than that.  Let her go if you must.  Time heals brokenhearts so they say.  Let time be your remedy in forgetting her if necessary.  Look around you and you will see so many faces who may catch your interest and give you hope for a better and lasting future relationship.
