Be it love, affection, friendship or any other relationship, if efforts are one sided then it's going to hurt you sooner or later. It's up to you whether you want to express your feelings or not because after a certain amount of time you know no matter how much you express it doesn't change things. With the time you wait for things to end by themselves because you can't leave it, you just can't move on. It pains yet it feels comfortable somehow. I don't know what is the threshold of human's heart to bear the pain but I know one thing that it gets even tougher to see yourself being the right person and still ending up with suffering. May be there is no other way around or may be we don't want to find one. The saddest part is you can't stop making efforts even if you lose yourself. Each time it becomes harder to rebuild the self but the atom of optimism just never stops blooming. Hopefully that's how love is supposed to work, a little selfish with lots of selflessness and if not then even love needs an redemption.
