One Sided Love Quotes

“I drew him in my world;
I write him in my lines,
I want to be his girl,
he was never meant as mine.

I drew him in my world;
He is always on my mind;
I draw his every line.
It hurts when he's unkind.

I drew him in my world;
I draw him all the time,
but I don't know where to draw the line.”
― Lang Leav, Lullabies (Volume 2)

“She recognized it at once: love, one-way deep adoration that bounced off and did not bounce back; careful, quiet love that didn't care and went on anyway.”
― Celeste Ng, Everything I Never Told You

“You and I
Again and again
Always almost
Never enough.

- A world of almosts”
― Ayushee Ghoshal , 4 AM Conversations

“My sympathies and my love went out to her, even as my hand had in the garden. I felt that years of the conventionalities of life could not teach me to know her sweet, brave nature as had this one day of strange experiences. Yet there were two thoughts which sealed the words of affection upon my lips. She was weak and helpless, shaken in mind and nerve. It was to take her at a disadvantage to obtrude love upon her at such a time. Worst still, she was rich.”
― Arthur Conan Doyle, The Sign of Four

“Love isn't possession. I don't need to have him to love him.”

“Sometimes, love is misplaced.”
― Wayne Gerard Trotman

“You say you're madly in love with me. Yes, I can see the madness but no love. You don't love me. You're madly attached to a fantasized version of me that you've created in your head. You don't talk to me. You talk to your fantasies.”
― Shunya

“4 AM and here we are.
Awake, drunk on regrets,
hungover on heartaches -
without you.”
― Ayushee Ghoshal, 4 AM Conversations

“Relations are beautiful only when they are not one sided.”
― Garima Soni - words world

“Love alone brings order eternal,
Order brought by law is shortlived.
Only selfless lovers make good lawmakers,
All others are just playing make belief.

Let love come as apocalypse and wipe out,
All that is rigid, all that is prehistoric.
Welcome love into your life as a purifying force,
Let it bring you to life anew and terrific.

Life is terrific when life has love but,
To have love and to have lover ain't the same.
Lover isn't one who has someone to love them back,
But one who radiates love,
despite living in drought without rain.

None knows the value of rain,
But the land of eternal drought.
None knows the value of love,
But the heart that loves despite hurt.

Only the one who knows pain,
Can love another without gain.
Only the heart that knows hurt,
Can help another without rain.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“There are things I can confess only after swallowing a bottle of ink. How i crushed a moth between my palms before it rushed to the fireplace. These hands that are used to killing things midflight. Like my mother tongue. Before I can roll out my rounded R and O. Because women like me are believed to practise witchcraft and blackmagic. We swallow men and spit out their bones. These hands that danced with your ghosts on the bluest 4 AMs. These hands that raised a knife to its throat. How deep was the longing to be nothing more than an empty bed, an empty room. If someone asks you tell them writing was the closest I came to witchcraft. Poetry was the closest I came to being possessed. I wanted to leave behind more than emptiness so I wrote.
.
They say it takes 7 seconds for the eyes to become accustomed to the darkness. I glide across the dark room like the light was never here. Your body imprint on the mattress lost to the frenzied waltz of sunray and dust. How easy was it to just grab a handful of you before you dissolved. If someone asks tell them loving you was the closest I came to seeing god.
.
On some nights I open the curtains and you are the moon. I am the darkness surrounding it. Which is to say I don't know how to love without being consumed. If they ask you tell them remembrance was the closest I came to being sick.
.
Once I met a homeless man who spoke in madness because he had forgotten his mother tongue. How long do you hide yourself from the world before you forget your beginning. Like him - I too am full of silence. My beloved - a handful of you, your body. There are things I could only tell the moths but they no longer visit. I have put off the fireplace. Which is to say they too don't know how to love something that won't kill them.
.
My phone always autocorrects I love you to I live you and what is love if not living the other person. One summer afternoon our bodies turned into each other's. Your breath played lye strings on my neck. If they ask you tell them that was the closest I came to being alive.”
― Ayushee Ghoshal, 4 AM Conversations

“أعترف إن عقلي لا يكُف عن مقرانتي بها
أتعلم..؟ هو أيضًا وبكل قسوة يراها مثالية غير مُبالٍ بـ قلبي الكَليم
أعترف أنها تشبه أول شعاع لـِ الشمس وقت الشروق، بينما أنا حالكة كـ منتصف ليلة يجتاحها الآرق.. وأنت تخاف الظلام
أعترف أنها تشبه وردة في الربيع، بينما أنا كـ ورقة شجر تائهة في رياح الخريف.. وأنت تمقُت الخريف
أعترف أنها تشبه نيسان في دفئها، بينما أنا قارصة البرد كـ أول تشرين.. وأنت تحتاج دفئها
أعترف إنها كـ نسمة هواء في الصيف، بينما أنا عاصفة شتوية.. وأنت تُفضل الصيف
أعترف أنها تفوقني في كل شيء ولكن.. عدا حُبك
فأنا بكل سوداويتي تلك صدقني أحببتك كما لم أحب نفسي.”
― مي عز الدين

“Sometimes, how someone doesn’t love you is documented all over your weariness, from being the one going the extra miles and never being met halfway.”
― Elelwani Anita Ravhuhali, From Seeking To Radiating Love: Evolution is unavoidable in the process of overpowering doubt

“Gotta write a letter to you,
If you get a chance, do read it.
Don't know how long I can endure,
But if you get a chance, do read it.

They say, time heals all wounds,
But there is no treatment to my condition.
If you get a chance, come and sit by me,
With you by my side even death is salvation.

The world hails one a pillar, an epitome of strength,
But inside, one battles with apocalypse everyday.
Sipping poison like delicate wine, time after time,
A loveless fakir gets used to be used and thrown away.

Read me or rip me, it is up to you.
So long as the heart beats, I'm waiting for you.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“Jag överdrev när jag sa att jag trodde att du hatade det jag spelade. Det jag menade var att jag trodde att du hatade mig. Jag hoppades att du skulle övertyga mig om motsatsen - och det gjorde du, tillfälligt.
Varför kommer jag inte tro på det imorgon?
- Call Me By Your Name, svensk översättning av Peter Samuelsson.
Originalförfattare André Aciman.”
― André Aciman, Call Me By Your Name

“Look, let me just say it: That could be anything but whatever that's, one-sided love or one-way trust, understanding, care, concern, consideration or maybe sacrifice is pointless and disappointing because things are not reciprocating these days. Also, the chance of that happening is very bleak and in the end, weeping in the middle of the night under a blue-black sky is for suckers or maniacs. You are gifted and sensible, you can understand this much...”
― Mohammed Israil

“You shouldn't confess until you can't hold yourself back anymore. You might get over it or you will reach a point when you can't keep it in your heart anymore. Both are equally painful, my dear. Whether it's about getting over love or pursuing one-sided love, one needs to walk the path of thorns.”
― Norah Koch, Miss Chicken & Her Mister

“To have and to hold,
Is the ideal condition.
But lover is the one,
Who loves even in destitution.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“A transactional mind is but an insult of love.
Either love or don't, there is no half-loving.
Measure not the light of love by the laws of red light.
At least the red light doesn't pretend purity,
Unlike the civil society with their half-loving.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“There may be failed love stories,
But there is no failed lover,
except those who love with eyes.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Amor Apocalypse: Canım Sana İhtiyacım

“Vaishusmriti (The Sonnet)

Those few afternoon trips back from uni,
With her head on my shoulder, were utopia.
My stomach was bursting with butterflies,
But my lips could barely utter a word.

My shirt got seeped with her intoxicating scent,
But her heart was posted to another man's mail.
Yet how can you begrudge someone you once loved!
It's okay to lose your heart to the wrong people.

Hadn't she rejected me, I'd have ended up
yet another nobody in the sea of engineers.
When life shatters you to a million pieces,
Get up and give back life some middle finger.

If you must love, love without any agenda,
If they love you back, your heart grows softer,
If they break you, your heart grows stronger,
Either way, in act of love there is no failure.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Vande Vasudhaivam: 100 Sonnets for Our Planetary Pueblo

“LOVE IS ONE SIDED, IF IT IS TWO SIDED, IT IS CALLED DESTINY.”
― Sachin Ramdas Bharatiya

“It’s always been such a lukewarm encouragement between us—you are essential to me and I am okay to you—but lukewarm is about as hot as I get.”
― Rebecca Dinerstein Knight, Hex

“I am not in love with you, Nell Barber,” and it was the kindest and most legitimizing thing you could say, as if you could have loved me, as if you only happened not to, as if you only didn’t, not couldn’t, not wouldn’t dare.”
― Rebecca Dinerstein Knight, Hex

“Bitter truth is most relationships are one-sided.”
― Garima Soni - words world

“It’s a name that feels like Pop Rocks on his tongue—bright and crackling; not painful, but not soothing either. It’s the sound of a firecracker bursting into a million sparks and leaving only the memory of light against a smoky sky. It’s the best and worst four-letter word in his vocabulary.”
― Addison Lane, Blackpines: The Antlers Witch: The Light in Her Dreams

“My love for you was like waves in the ocean, but you ignored me as if it was nothing to you. Even so, whenever you hear the sounds of waves, remember that my heart beats for you.”
― Mahammad Sami Shaik, Blissful Soulmate

“Tumhare liye mera pyaar samandar ki lehron ki tarah tha, lekin tumne mujhe nazarandaz kar diya jaise ke yeh tumhare liye kuch bhi nahi tha. Phir bhi, jab bhi tum lehron ki awaaz suno, yaad rakhna ke mera dil tumhare liye dhadakta hai.”
― Mahammad Sami Shaik, Blissful Soulmate

“उसका मेरे लिए प्यार बस एक भ्रम था, जबकि मेरा प्यार सच्चा और स्पष्ट था। मैं हर संभव कोशिश करती रही, लेकिन उसके संदेहपूर्ण नज़रों ने मुझे हमेशा ये सोचने पर मजबूर कर दिया कि मैं कहाँ कमी कर रही हूँ। असल में, इसका मतलब सिर्फ इतना था कि आप कभी भी उस व्यक्ति के लिए पर्याप्त नहीं हो सकते, जो आपको चाहता ही नहीं।”
― Malar
