Love is not reciprocal. You can love someone that doesn't love you and that's ok but you have to realize what it really is and not what you want it to be. That's a lesson that I'm still learning. I've also learned not to have expectations of anyone. If I do something kind for someone because of the emotions I have attached to them, they don't owe me anything in return. Not even a thank you. I've learned to love myself and I've found in doing that it's easier to accept all the downfalls that come with love.
If you love someone else before you love yourself, there is no love left when they are gone and that's the part that sucks and hurts so badly that you swear off love for the rest of your life.
