      It's normal. As to those who say it's pointless and foolish. You don't choose who you love, it happens at random. What you're saying is like telling someone who rolled a 2 with a dice that it was foolish and they should have rolled a 6 instead.

    Very common, but like others said: unhealthy.
    And more than that, what a waste.

    Life is short, move on to someone that returns your affection.

    Or if you really want to waste your life: be a martyr, marry someone that doesn't love you!

    It doesn't stop me from sleeping, but almost every night I dream about her. When reality sinks in I just wish all those dreams I have about her could be real.

    Oh boy some of you are so brave behind your computer at one point or another we have been through it or will go through it don't say shit like save your love for your lover makes you sound bitter and stupid love is the most powerful emotion I've loved someone who I was dating for about a year he would say he loved me but never really showed it even though I knew that he cared about me he was a sucky boyfriend finally after months of feeling sad and depressed that the relationship was failing I broke it off I swear to you for months I could not say his name or talk about him without tearing up it hurt to talk it hurt to breath I could not sleep at that point now I'm over him I'm happy with a new guy who I know loves me so trust me it will past its lame to say time heals all wounds but its true

      That was a good story but you should stop typing giant run on sentence paragraph abominations that make little sense and see how hard this is to read its like a child telling you a long pointless story without taking a breath learn to use punctuation okay?

    Self love is the best love....try being so much in love with yourself that you keep yourself awake at night.

    It's interesting to me how we get ourselves into these unrequited love scenarios in the first place. I imagine that low self esteem, loneliness, and a heap of imagination play a part.

    how are you so sure this person doesn't feel the same way? have you talked to him/her? you weren't specific there.

    anyway, it is normal, but if you know it's not gonna go anywhere, you should try to move on.

    Normal but unhealthy.

    If he or she doesn't love you back it's time to start teaching yourself to not think about them.

    You may think, "That's impossible," but it's very possible.

    Whenever you find yourself focused on him or her stop and tell yourself, "No more!" and purposefully bring up another idea or topic. It may not work right away but eventually you can train yourself to think about other things.
