About This Quote
Unrequited love is so boring. Weeping under a blue-black sky is for suckers or maniacs. One of the most common reasons people fall in love is because they are in love with someone else who doesn’t love them back. The pain of unrequited love can be just as intense as the pain of an arranged marriage.
Many people feel that if their love has gone unreturned, that they should just move on and forget about it. Doing so, however, is only possible in the movies. Unrequited love can be one of the most torturous conditions imaginable.
