Love with a Man that I'm not Sure Loves Me in Return

This love I have for you – its hard to describe, yet easy to feel. Its difficult to convey save for the actions of every day life. I dont know how to tell you that I love you without making you uncomfortable or scaring you away. I suppose saying it isnt really necessary, since giving the condition a name doesnt change its qualities…however, I cant help but feel theres something to say about the inability to say it at all. I understand that receiving love, and loving someone in return, is terrifying. Youre not the sort to make yourself vulnerable and neither am I. Love makes you weak in a way, I guess you could say…but more importantly, it makes you strong. This is just one of the reasons that I love love, and love loving you in particular.

I'm sorry for bringing up something that obviously makes you uncomfortable, but I hope you can understand the position that I'm in. I'm 18 years old, about to graduate from SHS, and am completely in love with a man that I'm not sure loves me in return, or even wants my love at all. Please dont be mistaken – this is not an ultimatum, and my feelings for you wont go away. I just want you to think about love. And possibly loving me. Or at least raising the issue of why you dont love me, or why you are wary of love.


I truly believe that life is too short to let fly by without telling the important people in your life how you feel. That, in effect, is why I wrote this letter. I just hope that one day I have the courage to give it to you.
