“Being the recipient of unrequited love gave me an insight into how people might feel or think who are not that into me.
It made me realize it’s best to let go of a person that doesn’t really want me.
I keep thinking how I feel about the person that likes me and I can’t reciprocate, is exactly how an individual who doesn’t want me feels about me.

I can’t shake it.
I don’t want to be around anyone that feels that way about me.
A point I explored in my Yakima book.

I think objection of my affection feels the same way about me like I do the person I don’t really like and it’s an overall sickening feeling.

I felt disgusted and I repelled the person who liked me and when I was around them, I wanted them to leave. I tolerated them because I didn’t want to hurt them but I secretly pitied them.

I wish they would move on and find someone to love them and leave me alone.
The more they tried, the more suffocated I felt and imprisoned.
I wanted what I wanted and I didn’t care.
It’s just not you and I don’t know how to change that.

No amount of good treatment from them or logic made me change my mind about the way I felt about him.
It wasn’t him.
That’s finale.

Here is a more twisted part of the story.
When he did, I wish they still loved me but only on my terms when I wanted to see them, when I had time for them. When I could tolerate it.
It’s not that I don’t want him to love me.
I only wanted it when I want it.
Not all the time.

Through unrequited love, l've gained a deeper ... understanding of the importance of mutual interest in relationships. l've learned to acknowledge when someone's enthusiasm isn't reciprocated and to release connections that lack genuine investment. I empathize with those who experience unrequited love, just as I do with the person who admires me without reciprocation. This insight has empowered me to prioritize authentic connections and explore the complexities of love in my Yakima book.”
