What’s worse? Unrequited love or unable to love?

Unable to love. No matter how much one loves you, you can never return the feeling nor understand it.   1 reply

Unrequited love. It will hurt you more than it hurts the other person. It’s the opposite for “being unable to love.” It will hurt the other more than it hurts you- that’s IF you decide to tell them, or they have feelings towards you. If we’re talking romantic partners, I’ve never “fallen in love” or been in a serious relationship. I......   reply

For some, it might be difficult to choose. Both would be painful. But, I'd still say being unable to love is just way worse. Unrequited love is sad, but someday, there would be someone out there to care for you. It might take years, or even decades, but I'm sure there will be someone. But unable to love? That is just so, so sad. It might be be......   reply

Going through elementary and high school without ever having a crush while you're friend is always in love with someone and just talking about their crush or how seeing them smile made their whole day. It......   2 reply

I'd say unable to love. I had unrequited love before, but you get over it, eventually. However, when I was (for years!) pretty much stripped of emotions, unable to love or feel anything really, that sucked. A lot. Like I felt guilty, but I couldn't FEEL it. I knew I liked someone based on all the logical reasons, but again, I couldn't FEEL it my ......   1 reply

I guess being unable to love. Being unable to love the person no matter how much they love you, it sucks. You'll never be able to replicate that same amount of love back and the feeling of guilt is heavy and uncomfortable. I would rather let go of the person than hurt them even more.   reply
