...unrequited love does not die; it's only beaten down to a secret place where it hides, curled and wounded. For some unfortunates, it turns bitter and mean, and those who come after pay the price for the hurt done by the one who came before.

About This Quote

Unrequited love is like an invisible spider web, which seeps into your heart and never leaves, even after it has died. It creeps in through tiny cracks in the armor of your heart. It waits for the perfect moment to strike when you are vulnerable and weak. Then, it drags you down into its web where it begins to spin its web of pain.
