Loving someone that doesn't love you is like reaching for a star, you know you'll never reach it, but you just got to keep trying

I was reading 1inthesame’s last post and then I came across this quote. To me it was too much of a coincidence so I thought I’d write about my own one-sided love.
He was everything I wanted in a man. Spontaneous, Romantic, ambitious etc. With one fatal flaw… he wasn’t in love with me. Now, notice I said in-love, cause I know that he had love for me but being in love with someone and loving them is different.
Now, I thought I was doing everything as a girlfriend I was supposed to. I was sweet, supportive, spontaneous and loving. I thought we were perfect together but for reasons that I am still unsure of to this day things change. I could tell in his eyes that the “love” was gone and even though he kept telling me the contrary I knew what I felt in my heart.
Now this didn’t stop me from still wanting to be with him on the contrary it made me want him more. I guess it’s the “wanting what you can’t have” scenario. God, did I try and try with him but sadly my love wasn’t enough. That experience left a sort of whole in my heart to this day and although I found the love I was looking for in someone else I still wonder why he couldn’t love me.
Ever love someone you know didn’t love you?
