Should I Let Go Or Should I Hold On?

Am in love with a certain woman but I don't know if she truly love me.I feel she doesn't respect me as the things she does to me,doesn't show any respect.When I am away,she misses me and treats me the way I want to be treated by someone I love but when we are together,she doesn't give me that special treatment.I have tried to understand her but what she does is beyond my understanding. I have reached a point where I want to let go as it brings me sadness more than happiness.Whenever I want to let go,am afraid of being single as it has been a long time being on my own.I don't know what to do.I speak sense to her but we still find ourselves going back to what is suppose to remain in the past. I really do love her and I wish she could change so that we get to be happy and be together forever but that seems like it will never happen.If I leave her,will I find someone better or love is just not for me.I ask myself so many questions that I don't seem to find their answers. What should I do?Let go or wait for her to change?

My suggestion will be to find out from the horse mouth before making the decision.

Depends on your age group that you should keep her or let her go. Say, if you are in your 70s, I would say, 'Keep her!' But if you are only in your 20s or 30s, I would say, 'let her go!'

People can't change who they are. She sounds immature. I'd move on at this point.

Letting go will always be the hardest goodbye but the greatest way to learn. Basing on your discussion, If I were you and Respect has long gone, I would give her up. I gave her chances but she never listened because in her mind she knows you will never leave her. Better to leave and I am sure you will find the one that is meant for you and will love you for who you really are.

You are right.Saying goodbye is never easy but sometimes its necessary.Despite all we have gone through,saying goodbye will hurt but hope time will heal.

It is easy for any of us who have never truly been in love to just say "Let her go", but if you are not happy then you must seriously consider that this might be the only alternative to your own happiness. Have you talked to her about your feelings? Know for sure that you cannot change her and trying to change her will only bring more unhappiness.

@ronnex Try not to react to her intentional annoying actions or words. If she sees she isn't getting a reaction, she might realize there's no point, and may even ask you what's wrong? :-)

She knows my feelings.She knows how much I want to be happy with her.And I think she knows she is not making me happy.What she does to annoy me,she does it intentionally.You are right.I have tried to change her but every time I do that,I find myself more unhappy as I realize that it was a waste of time speaking sense to her.

Why are you afraid of being single? I am also single but I am not afraid at all. If you really love her, then just try to understand her. Maybe she loves you but that is her way in showing it to you.

This is hard. Only you can make that decision if you think things are worth trying to make it work. Best of luck.

Do you really love her? Do you love her unconditionally? Do you love her flaws?

I think you should give her a break. Start avoiding her . Being a woman myself I know such type of women who only one thing and that is to give mentally hurt their spouse or partner to make themselves feel superior from indisde. Just stop talking to her.

Hello! I think you should give her a break. Have a frank conversation with her, tell her what you really feel. Sometimes people love it in a different way than we expect, but they really love it. I hope I helped.

according to me, love goes simultaneously with respect, you should be with someone who respects you and your decisions regardless of whether you are near or away. The first step to being loved is loving yourself. discover yourself and learn how to be comfortable even on your own and love will find you, the kind that you deserve.
