Love is a very complicated matter, but it seems as if love is one of the main reasons that a lot of us live each day. Of course it can be way easier to just be with anyone that you know you can never put your all into, rather than admit that you love someone that you can't have, because we as humans are prideful in nature. Sometimes we would rather keep up the appearance of being happy in order to make everyone around us think highly of us.

One of the beginning steps to getting over someone that we love that we can't have is just admitting to ourselves that we can't have them. Though the blame may be yours, theirs, or totally due to circumstances, the facts are the facts, and life is life. Use what you went through with a past love to teach you and prepare you for your future lover. Don't let history repeat itself if it is left up to you, and never force love, let it blossom on its own.
