It hurts me so much to see no emotion in his eyes when he looks at me. There is such a thick wall he has built up. I did my best to be fun, smile, show kindness, etc., but nothing seems to be able to chip away at this wall he has erected to keep me out. I am beginning to question my sanity. I keep fighting for this man that I love, who does not love me and continues to have contact with OW and with this other woman. Ocassionally he will throw me a bone (send me a text or invite me somewhere) but for the most part he is out of the picture and spends his time with OW and girlfriend.
Relationships work best when they are based on mutual feelings of love, respect, and kindness. Investing your energy and time in someone who doesn't reciprocate, will ultimately prevent you from receiving the love you want in return.
"Always go straight forward, and if you meet the devil, cut him in two and go between the pieces." - William Sturgis, clipper ship captain, 1830's.
