Say you are in love with someone. They are almost perfect, and they love you back. Furthermore, let's say this person is not right for you...no matter how it appears on the surface. You know it, your friends know it, and your family knows it. But you can't just let her go. What do you do?

Can I ask what you mean by not right for you? Is it something that can be worked out? If I really loved them and they loved me I would do everything possible to make it work.

Well, she has a different philosophy on life than I do. I'm a work-a-holic, she's a couch-potato-holic. She won't work. I can't make her work, and I won't even try to. I run a small business that needs a LOT of attention and, as smart as she is, she won't help. I know this sounds selfish on my part, but it's really not. She helps me spend the fruit of my labor, but she's not willing to tend the harvest! Is that mean of me to expect her to help?

No that's not mean of you. I would expect her to help too.

love is love! - i think the one i love ,i love. n thatz it!
no way man! if ,say, i say that i am in love with someone so it mean "I LOVE HER", now its not the case of surface (as u said) or anything,coz i believe the love is done with the person, and anything comes in between, love overtakes it. So i can never let her go.I'll die without here,thats for sure

"Nothing can stop love" - anonymous. yeah. i know everybody can do sumthing about it. but hey, it is always your decision that will make the best of what you choose. i mean, if you choose to fight for your love, no one can do anything about it (if you really love the person). if you choose to be a coward, then let it be. Its your life. ethically speaking love is undefinable. so you cannot judge what is the best thing to do. one thing you can do is that you choose what you want and make the most of it. +|ella|+

let her know you would value her contribution to you buisness. Get her involved in a small project to start. She just may be in a rut. Tell her you would like to see her more motivated or you don't think you can live with that. It's not fare to you is she doesn't contribute somehow.

If you can't let her go, then don't attempt it. Just live with it and give thanks for it.

well, the premise given isn't enough to give an advice. what else aside from not wanting to work makes her not right for you? is she too demanding, violent? if love is still there, try some more to patch it up. have you talked about it? did you ask her why? most of relationship probs occur due to lack of communication, or miscommunication. i wish i could say more but all i could tell you now is - if she's willing to work it out with you, then it has hope, but if even that basic requirement isn't possible, then let go. any relationship should be 2-way, otherwise it won't work and ain't goin anywhere.

I really shouldn't answer this cuz I don't know a bamned thing about love. Never had the experience in depth. While I use the term often it is superficial in most cases. I say I love a song.....it means I like very much. For that reason I think the word is over used in the wrong sense of it. I suppose it is proper to say that I loved my mother and father but that too has a different meaning than loving a husband and a wife. Love confuses me and always has....maybe that's another reason why I have been single all my life. As for knowing what to do in the case at hand....I'd do what I did with my first fiancé. Sorry, but I just cant get it together better end it now than suffer the consequences later. He agreed and that was the end of the story......we didn't live together neither happily or unhappily ever after.

Then you hold onto it and work on it If you love someone then this Person is right and in time to come you will be right for each other Love does not come easy so when you have it hold on and if it is not right you will soon know

Well, if you know that some person is not right for u, it isnt love first; moreover if love does not exists, there is no question of curing love, because it isnt true love! I would just tell that person, See, im really sorry, but i think we two cannot do together anymore because maybe someone from us is not made for the another!

If the person is not right for you.. then no matter what things will go downhill for you. Its important to be practical in matters of love. I know easier said than done.
