That happens far more often than you both feeling the same way! You get used to it, and just look for the next candidate. Eventually, you will find someone as into you as you are into them.

I think it's more frustrating when they DO see you in that light but certain circumstances, such as distance or obligations, can't allow you to be together. I feel it's easier to get over them emotionally when they don't share the same romantic feelings but maturity allows us to respect and understand that so we're grateful for the friendship, at the very least.

Happens to me all the bloody time. Whenever I meet a girl who I'm attracted to, have mutual interests with, runs in the same circle of friends, chemistry, etc etc etc...99 times out of 100, she's already in a long term relationship, or worse yet, when you get to be in my age group (mid twenties), they're engaged or married.

DUDE, we are on the same wavelength! I'm 24 and this has been the story of my life so far.

Well, when I met my husband - I was engaged. Sometimes being "taken" isn't really the end.

It's happened to me a few times. Then I found a hobby I could concentrate on and not think of women much.

Great decision on my part, but the hobby is one hell of a money sink lol.
