The ones who love without being loved back part I.

My mom just shared with me the most heartbreaking thing. She asked me, "Dulce, have you ever dreamed of being with the person you're in-love with but it's only you displaying affection?". I replyed I had had similar dreams. I then told her she subconsciously feels she is not loved in return from a present or previous lover. My mom is 44 and has been with the same man for 10 years. They are not perfect and are constantly fighting to say the least. If you however put them under a horoscope chart they are the perfect match. Now what ran through my mind as she was sharing this with me is how many people on the planet are living in this subconcious fear? And for what purpose do they stay with the ones they "love" if it doesn't make them feel good being with their significant other? But I guess this is what scares me to. And why I possibly never open up to guys. Or anyone in general. Its that fear of not being loved in return.
