The Anguish of Loving Someone Who Will Never Be Yours "It aches to love someone who is in your heart but not in your arms." It makes you feel useless, as if you've lost the most important battle of your life and can't even make the person you love your life. You think that if only they loved you back, everything would be fine, but soon enough they'll leave you too, leaving you with the pain of losing them forever. The feeling of loving someone who doesn't love you back is an agonizing one. You want to cry but have no tears left, and when there's still hope that they might come back someday, you go on suffering. Some people find comfort in the fact that love hurts and try to ease their pain by committing suicide, while others change direction in life and start fresh with a new love story. In short, the agony of loving someone who will never be yours is that you lose both times: first when you fall in love and then when you are forced to let them go. No one should have to suffer like this. If you're in such a situation, please contact us at mentalhealthamerica.org or call 1-800-273-8255 for help.
