If you truly loved someone, would you fight for them or let them go?
This is a huge question for me. I’ve literally spent months on end pondering this. I’ve asked countless people, gotten a whole slew of responses, and I am no closer to finding the answer.
Unfortunately, the debate is split pretty evenly. A lot of people say you should move on and let them live their life because it’s best for them. Still, others say that you should fight with all you are for that person. I have no idea where I stand.
Am I supposed to just stop liking this girl because it will never be? Or do I stick it out and hope for the best? I don’t know the definitive answer, but I will share some knowledge about each way to go.
Moving on is one of the hardest things to do in life. They say that it’s the best thing to do, though. By staying and wishing that one day you will be together, you just get your hopes up to be eventually crushed. Don’t waste your time and effort on someone who is unavailable. In order to move on, you need to stop thinking about that person, but what happens if you see that person everyday? Well, life just got a whole lot harder for you. If seeing them everyday makes you fall deeper and deeper in love with them, maybe you should just ride the storm and hope for the best.
Sticking it out means that you will stand by this person and just pray and wait. This may come with some problems of its own—like being put in the friend zone (which I will talk about tomorrow). You just keep hoping that maybe one day the fates will conspire in your favor and everything will work out between you two. But maybe they won’t. Maybe you are just setting yourself up for rejection. If you hate getting depressed by being by them but not actually being with them, maybe you should just move on.
And so we have the infinite loop here. Which route is the path to take? If you know, please tell me.
See ya tomorrow,
Scott N.
