Hi guys, hate being sad, but here you go.

From scouts through school and adulthood i was in love with a good friend. I eventually came out to him, he was shocked, id say taken aback.

Six months later he died of cancer at 50,still miss n love him

That's really sad. Daresay a good many of us have had a crush/feeling of great affection for a straight mate that has never been returned. I know I did in my teens and 20s and some of these mates were older so I often wonder if they are even still around.

Dying at 50 is far too young and exceptionally sad.

Reminds me of that channel 4 drama called 'irs a sin'. Where the lead finds out he is hiv+ and goes back to his hometown to find that one lad he loved from childhood. He expresses his feelings and gets rejected. Eventually dies.

RIP far too young very sad. The joyous thing about it is he got to know he was loved and adored by you and you got the opportunity to tell him. I told my best pal in my early twenties how I felt about him it was not reciprocated but remained friends he married and subsequently divorced my cousin and years later approached me as bi curious but by then I was with someone else and didn't feel the same. Sometimes it's a matter of timing as well.

All about timing. I fancied my mates son for years and, whilst suspecting he was gay, I did nothing. Twenty years of nothing as scared. Not sure of what I was scared of - maybe being rejected. Maybe ruining everyone's lives. Laughed together. Touched his hand occasionally. Felt a thrill. Fantasised. Then a few years ago he came out and is now married. I regret saying and doing nothing every day. So now I try to recover the years on fab guys. Hopefully.

He died knowing and he died with you having told him.

There’s comfort in there somewhere.

Unrequited love for another guy is, I expect, all too common. I have been there myself a couple or three times. I sometimes wonder if 'love' is just the subject projecting his own ideals onto another guy who may well not actually possess them, but has shown a degree of friendship which makes it seem like the chance of a spark is there.

My amateur philosophising!

Just wish I had done or said something. I said one clumsy thing once and quickly backtracked cos he didn't immediately fall into my arms kissing me. But as has been proven recently, life is far too short for regrets. Certainly for things we haven't done.

I think this is my diagnosis today. I fell head over heels with a guy I met last weekend, and I have not met or seen or heard from him since. He is tugging my heart strings bad.

Unrequited , impossible or secret love ,often brings more sadness and pain than is bearable .Anyone in this situation has my sympathy.

I feel blessed when hen I read these type of posts ,ive bean married over 50years and still love her to bits. Can't imagine what it must be like searching for the one person to grow old with. That just loves you warts and all unconditionally. Xxx

I went out today with one man on my mind.

Five months now.

I came home, and I entertained a young guy I'd been chatting to for ages but never met.

I've got a similar feeling now, and he was super nice.

What's for you won't go by you.

You realise, the older you get, just to cherish these moments instead of falling in love with them
