How to Mend My Broken Heart When He Loves Someone Else and You Still Love Him

Is there a way to heal your broken heart when the one you love is in love with someone else? You have been adoring him privately, been friends with him forever and you know that he is “the one”! How great your relationship might be and how greatly you desire to be with him is all you can think about but… he is in love with someone else.

It can be so heartbreaking when you can't be with the one you love, and especially heartbreaking to see him with someone else. Is there any possible way to get him to love you? If you plan to one day have a relationship with him you'll have to be patient. The resolution to these types of situation can take a lengthy time. You must keep your distance while he is with the other person however during this time you should remain good friends to him but do not force yourself on him.

Also, never put his current girlfriend down in front of him. This will reveal two qualities in a woman that a guy does not like, jealousy and vindictiveness, which is how you will look. All you need to do is be there for him… as his friend, if this woman is amazing and he is ecstatic with her. If she is not a nice person then you are still going to have to be patient, he has to see it for himself. But when he does realize it and she breaks his heart, you'll be there for him, to help pick up the pieces.

You should date other people while you are being tolerant and waiting for him. This is to explore your options, keep an open mind, and not to make him jealous. While you pass the time you need to be out there enjoying your life just don’t look for something significant. There is nothing worse than spending your life waiting for someone and they never come to you. Who knows? Maybe you'll fall in love with someone else.

Another thing you can do is place yourself as a permanent fixture in his life; maybe you should become friends with his girlfriend. You might even start to truly like her and this way you can see if she loves him as much as he loves her. Should anything go wrong, this will allow you to be close by him to offer support.

If there is any chance that you can get together, this will only make your relationship stronger. I believe notable relationships are built on great friendships which started with a foundation of honesty and trust. He will also love you for who you are, not who you think he wants you to be because he has been friends with you for so long. You’ve seen him at his best and his worst as he has with you and you still love him because of your friendship.

You must have patience in anticipation of him seeing the light and realizing that you are “the one” for him. Be a good friend to him and live your life by continuing to date and to have fun. By continuing to be part of his life through your friendship and being ecstatic for him you will not have to heal your broken heart. If he is with you or not and if you really love him you’ll be happy for him.
