Well . . . because you are two separate beings, with two separate sets of emotions and attractions. This isn't anything unusual. =/

You don't choose who you love.

Depends on your definition of love. I think a person can have desire for another that is not returned, but love (right treatment) goes both ways.

for the same reason that one person can be thirsty and the other not ... one person to be hungry and the other fully satisfied ... everybody has control over their feelings and the chooses they make, and over themselves only ... you can't "make" someone love you, no matter how hard you try or how bad you want it to be

Good question, one that has haunted me since a reverse situation a few years ago. For the first and only time, I fell head-over-heels in love with a lady, but despite everything I tried, she did not feel the same way towards me. The same feelings just wasn't there in her. I still don't understand it, but I've accepted it...sort of. One thing I do understand is this: Love conquers everything, but one - inalienable indifference.

No chemistry. Some wonderful people out there, but chemistry is reserved for a few. +4

Love is the emotional feeling and it is two way traffic.

when neigbress loves you but your wife knows kick boxing well ..... seriously it depends on the definition of love that your heart accepts.. generally its not you who choose love, but its the love who makes the choice so its possible that someone might be loving me but I am not in a position to respond !!!!!!

I think that alot of people are more in love with the idea of being in love than they are with figuring out if they really love the people they think they are in love with. Thinking about the last guy that swore up and down I was his soulmate, and I knew immediately that I didn't love him, it was clear that he was lonely and desperate to find love. He knew he loved me within 2 weeks. I don't doubt he felt something, but I don't think he knows what love is at this point in his life. He just wants it so badly that anything that comes his way is automatically love.

The feelings of reciprocity AREN'T there!

I wish I knew the answer, this is my life right now. I love him and care very much, he only cares for me, no love. And it is hurting us both, he is sad because he misses me and Im sad because hes gone, but I cant live a life with only me loving him. So good luck with getting a answer that covers your situation.
