Loving is tiring. Especially when you get nothing in return. Unreciprocated love is one of the worst things people can ever experience. Yes it's true that love should be selfless. But it's not everything. Mutuality is one thing, and it's really important. Before you can call something a relationship, feelings should be mutual. One has to get something in return for what one gives. Mutuality is needed to avoid exhaustion, burn-out. People get tired especially when they get nothing to boost their energy, morale, or self-love. People get exhausted when all they do is pour their hearts out to someone/something and all they get are blank stares and empty sighs. People need to be appreciated even just for a bit. Yes, people need to give love. But also, be loved in return.
If you can't reciprocate love, don't dare ask for it.
