i got this quote from some site which aptly describes a ordeal i went through...

"A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go. "

wish to add something to the above...
"but i decide to hold on, hoping against hope that the person will some day understand how much i value h** presence in my life, hoping that day is not too late for h** to come back to my life"

but life does go on...and i am bit wiser out of it atleast in terms of understanding relationships.
