A Question For Someone With The Answer

What do you do if you really love someone but they are indifferent back?

I would do anything for my girlfriend. Literally anything she asked and I would do it, or at least try hard. Whenever she texts I drop whatever I'm doing and reply immediately and I strive to change both my personality and physique to suit her idea of a perfect man.

She however is largely indifferent towards me. Whenever I see her with her friends she essentially acts like I'm not there, only talking to me to put me down in front of everyone. She continually talks about how 'hot' other guys are and berates me on everything from my hair colour to my muscle tone. When I see her alone it's much better, but because she is apparently trying to avoid getting bored of me she very rarely agrees to meet up, and most of the time she cancels last minute.

I really care for her and would be heartbroken if it were to end, but my question to you is is it better to be heartbroken than downtrodden? Is this even a relationship at all? I don't know what to think right now.

Ruining Me...

Every footstep forward, I take another back, Every compliment I get, You point out what I lack. Every smile you give me, Another frown on side, Every open talk we have, There's another that we hide.

Why would you be heartbroken not being downtrodden?

An excellent question... I know her so well and the good times are great, but they aren't frequent. I invested a lot of myself in the relationship and it would be awful to see it go to waste.

I'm guessing you're late teens.. How much of your life (you've only lived @25% of it so far) are you willing to waste

You have to allow someone to treat you like that.. Man up, maybe she will respect you more if you do,, if not.. Move on

Thats correct yes. Our plan was always to break up before uni so in terms of life spent on it there is a cap on it. Thank you for your advice though, this is the first time I've thrown this kind of thing out into the community.
