According to Aristotle, "Humans are social animals." which made them long to form an intimate relationship in which love can be given and received freely.
We have the need to belong. We always wanted to be loved. But what if the only person that you love will never love you back? What if the only person that made you laugh will also the one that will make you cry?
Year 2013, month of June when I first met him. It was my first time to enter in Ramon Magsaysay Technological University as a freshman student. Yes, we are just a strangers before. But as time passed by, I've known his personality better and we became friends. He is a jolly person and I always enjoyed his company. He cracked jokes a lot and he always wear a positive positive smile that can captivate someone's heart. Though we are not that close I still considered him as one of my precious friend. We are in 9th grade when we became seatmate. At first it is uncomfortable but little by little, we became very close to each other. To the point that I'm always excited to go to school just to see him. And that's the time that I've realized that I have a crush on him.
One thing that I like about him is being gentleman. I noticed that he always care. He has no idea about my feelings towards him because I have no courage to tell him. So we stay that way, a seatmate who became close friends.
Finally, when graduation was about to come, I already have a courage to confess my feelings to him. Confessions that I hope I never did because it only broke my heart.
He liked someone else. He already courting that girl. I asked him if what about the sweet gestures and the care he had showed me, and he only answered one thing. That it is just a friendly gestures, nothing else.
And to make the story more exciting, "that girl" he likes is one of my closest friend. Yes it hurts. It hurts like hell.
That day, I remembered all the laughter and the beautiful memories we shared. And that's the moment I've realized that I'm already crying. Crying on the same guy who also made me laugh before.
In this world, we should accept the fact that we cannot please everyone. Not everyone will like us. Not everyone will love and can understand us. Might as well be thankful enough and contented with those people who can understand and love us.

This is just my opinion. For me, you don’t have to please someone to get his attention. All you have to do is show him who you really are, and that you care about him. Ultimately, if this man is really God's will for you, it will be yours.
