Books for when you have a strong crush on someone who basically does not give a fuck about you?
>>25041590If you love someone who does not love you, the best you can do for yourself and them is to just love them for who they are and let them live their life in freedom, be their friend, even if it hurts you. Suffering for love is divine, if there ever was something of the sort.
>>25041590Sorrows of Young Werther and other romantic era books. Dante’s whining and pining.
>>25041765What? Dont be their friend. Just let it go OP. Don't blue ball yourself kiddo.
Turn 18.
>>25041796If they are truly special to you, you do not want to lose them. I know some women who I was with and some who I rejected and others rejected me, I will still want to stay in touch with them until I die.If youre too weak for that you shouldnt fall in love.
>>25041803Sounds like a drug addiction kek. But you do you
>>25041803Lol faggot. Just pump and dump like a man.
>>25041590"Smitten" by Tom Bellamyif you want help getting over limerence, that book is a good starting pointif you want to wallow in self-pity, go do that instead
>>25041803Actually embarrassing post. Never again taint this board with your idiocy. And kill yourself.
>>25041800My bad for not treating dating like a meat market and actually having emotions I'm just a heckin immature chud
>>25041803I did this and ultimately wasted my prime years and 15 years of my life trying to play the long game with a foid who used the fuck out of me while stringing me along.
>>2504196815 years?! Anon...
>>25041972Sigh, I know. I didnt have much guidance growing up and was really naive to the realities of the world. Don't be like me. If things dont work out there is probably a good reason why and no amount of good intentions will ever change that. Just move on and keep focusing on bettering yourself and eventually the right one will come along. Or at least thats what I keep telling myself, the right one will come eventually r-right bros?
>>25041889It's the 21st century, you've gotta be an absolute moron to be idealistic about romance now. You'll just be played for a sap by women.
>>25041590Look up the redpill guys on youtube or read The Rational Male, it will stop you from falling in love with a woman ever again. If you want love then have kids or find God
>>25041800Fourth post best post.You're over 18 and have a crush?>>25041889>>25041590Graduate high school then come back.
>>25041590Anon crushes are for children. You create a false image in ur head of a person you find physically attractive. When u gain experience u realise that theyre probably a boring npc like 90% of the ppl u meet. If u like her just go talk 2 her and if she doesnt like u there are a million whores exactly like her out there.
>>25041991Perhaps focus less on the 'right' one. Focus on serving others and the Creator.
>>25041992>>25042036>>25042129Using the word crush was a tad gay but the sentiment is real. I met someone through uni that I had a good bond with and despite her seeming interested too initially over time we've drifted. It's rare for me to feel this way about someone and she crosses my mind a lot. Sorry I'm not some jaded miserable fuck boomer that has given up on romance and just has some mail order bride to do his chores. Have you guys ever considered that dating people you don't even like that much is fucking retarded, and having feelings for someone is the most human thing ever? We're on a literature board for fuck sake this is what like half the books ever written are about
>>25042944Imagine her getting her back blown out by a BBC and that feeling will pass along like the dew on a summer's day.
>>25042948I'm not an amerimutt so I won't be imagining that
This happened to me but it was a man I liked and he did care about me as special friend but not more than that. It hurts even more for faggots so don't be a pussy.
>>25041803What? I already have enough friends. There's only one position in my life that's open, and if a girl isn't interested than that's it. There's no way I'm ditching people I've known for half my life to orbit some hoe who curbed me.
>>25041993Is there anything in redpill books that people haven't already learned through pop culture osmosis?
>>25041590How old are you? I don't mean that in a nasty way, it's just the answer depends on how old you are. If you're quite young and don't have much experience of the world you probably want something like Keats. Bold lover, never, never canst thou kiss, though winning near the goal; yet do not grieve, etc. If you're a bit older and you know more about the world, you'll be wanting something to teach you to appreciate the poetic tragedy of life and the life-affirming nature of suffering and weakness. Nietzsche maybe, or St Augustine's Confessions. If you've experienced a lot of life, and particularly if you've had extensive experience of death, you'll want to be developing universal love and compassion. There's really nobody better for.that than Tolstoy.
Sorta related but how about books for when you're obsessed with a taken woman who also shows interest in you but neither of you have the guts to break the dignity of a long established relationship so you both just alternate between heated friendly proximity and sudden coldness out of awareness of repressed feelings? And you sometimes dream about her. Asking for a friend.
