What do you do when...

What do you do?

So you deeply love them, but they just wanna be friends. You know things could be great, because they were at one time, but they dont see anything in the future... except being friends.

Do you wait [hopeful or in denial of truth] for them, believing they just might change their mind someday? I mean, you are deeply in love and no matter what you do, you just cant see anyone else. You've tried, but you cant [even if you wait your whole life, lonely cuz they never chose you]
Do you give up the friendship [saying if its not more I dont want it!] and just let the person go [giving up, or honestly saying goodbye]? I mean, you did consider them as one of  your best friends, and you deeply love them. They say if you love something let it go, if its meant to be, it'll come back.. right?
Do you allow yourself to stay friends [accepting the truth] while you watch them go in and out of relationships [knowing they wont get in a relationship with you] and ache each break up that they run to you but dont choose you? I mean, like you've always been there for them, they are like your best friend, and you deeply love them. Maybe, ["just maybe" you think] the next time they'll see YOU and choose YOU[honestly knowing, they've made up their mind].

What do you do when you love someone, and maybe you two gave it a shot. It was passionately amazing, and not only did they say you were the best person they've ever dated, but you knew it [cuz you saw and heard how the others were and strived to top that]. Everything about the relationship says "the one"... till something changed[life happens- moves you, immobilizes, stresses you]... and then they couldnt handle it [didnt wanna fight for it]..
Do you give up when they say "break up"? I mean, you put all you could into it [counseling, friends, books, doing all their favorites], so there's nothing left right?
Do you stay and fight more [dragging the frustrations further]? I mean, you've been fighting, so it wouldnt be much different [but maybe this time something will break thru].
Do you just say ok, and walk away? I mean, its over right. At what point do you know to give up?

So maybe you are in love with your friend, and maybe you tried it with your friend and you broke up... somehow its all different now, and you know this... but something in you cant move forward[cuz you honestly loved them deeper than you've loved anyone]. What do you do then?
And what if you already made your choice[and it hurt so deeply to do, but you had to be strong] and then  you regret it... and you know- there is no turning back... cuz this decision was the final decision. What do you do then?

I'm sorry.
