[Empathetic & Tear-Jerking] A love song about an unrequited romance

Even when you know it’s a hopeless love and your feelings won’t be returned, you still can’t stop your heart—it’s just impossible, isn’t it?

Your head says it might be no good, but your heart won’t follow so easily, and your feelings only grow stronger.

For you who feel this way, here are love songs that sing of the aching emotions of unrequited love—songs I want you to hear.

Some are from a woman’s perspective, some from a man’s, but whichever you listen to, your chest will surely tighten, and you may find yourself relating as if the song were about you.

Soothe the feelings you can’t tell anyone by listening to tracks from those in the same situation.
