You’re in love with someone that doesn’t love you. What do you do? The sex is great. He makes you laugh constantly and you have a wonderful time with him. But something is missing. You are ready to tell him you love him but you know he doesn’t feel that way about you.

Do you tell him and risk being rejected? Do you continue to see him knowing you all are not on the same page? It is not an ideal situation to be in. But you have options. It all boils down to what you can handle. If you know without a doubt he does not love you, then depending on how strong your feelings are for him, you might need to cut your losses and move on.

If you stay in a situation with someone that does not return your feelings, it is a good chance you are going to get hurt. If you think this is a situation you are in there are some steps you can take.

1. Communicate
You have to communicate your desires. Give your partner the chance to tell you if they are going to be able to return your feelings one day or if they have no interest in falling in love with you. It will be easier to let them go if you know they are not willing to give you what you need out of the relationship.

2. Be willing to say goodbye
Relationships should always be beneficial to all parties involved. You should never allow yourself to be in a situation where you are fulfilling all of someone else’s needs and allowing your needs to be looked over and forgotten. Put yourself first, you can almost guarantee the person you are dating is putting his/her feelings and desires before yours.

3. Keep dating
Never allow one bad situation to keep you from meeting the person you are meant to be with. If you are not putting yourself in a position to meet Mr. or Ms. Right how can you expect them to find you? Besides dating really can be fun. The main goal after letting go of someone you care for should be to continue to enjoy life.

Luckily in Kansas City there are many people that are looking for a serious relationship. There is no reason to settle for less than what you want in a city like this.

The thing about relationships is, sometimes they end. But when there’s an ending there is a beginning. Even Jay Z says, it's On to the Next One.
