I've got the same problem you have, the difference, I'm a girl and i love à Guy that doesn't love me back, so, i decided to take his friendship it was better Than nothing, and i was being me, with Time we became really close, and he became really open with me, he asked me once why i loved him, i simply said that he represents all what i want to find in a guy, and than he said that now he trusts me more than anybody else and the perfect girl for him is a girl he trusts, I'm still waiting for a miracle to happen but, it is better than giving up. I hope this Will help you, hold on, and fight for your love you hâve nothing to loose :)
