Unrequited Love Quotes Definition
The signs of love are unmistakable. You feel the palpitation of your heart go wild. You are consumed by thoughts of your beloved. And more importantly, you find it impossible to be away from your heartthrob. When you are in love, every emotion is overwhelming. Your mood, temperament, and preferences are controlled by love. Love ensnares you. But you willingly subject yourself to the imprisonment. Noted poet Ralph Waldo Emerson eloquently wrote, "Thou art to me a delicious torment."
Unrequited Love Is a One-Sided Romance
Nothing hurts more than unrequited love. Love, when turned down, can tear your heart. Though time heals wounds, the heart is never really whole again. Many lovers find it difficult to rebound after heartbreak. The burden of a one-sided affair is too much to bear. The heart is broken, and so is self-esteem.
Charlie Brown, the fictional character in Peanuts, said, "Nothing takes the taste out of peanut butter quite like unrequited love." Life loses its flavor, and love becomes an unattainable dream. The object of your affection becomes the focus of your obsession.
Don't Look at Love Through Rose-Tinted Glasses
