if you like someone, you can't say whatever comes to your head, and assume you will be forgiven. if you like someone, how can you speak of them so disrespectfully? you should choose your words more thoughtfully. you should know that if you bombard someone with one-sided love, you are nothing but a burden to them...and you will just end up hurting them in the end. you must remember to respect the other persons feelings...if you do not, they will only hate you in the end.

Most often, we don't mean it but just the same the words hurt people we love and care about more then we could ever imagine.
