Its funny how people go into relationships thinking that if their the dominant partner the one that’s Liked and not the Like—ee then they’re in control of the relationship when really it’s the Like-er, the person who’s put themselves forward and admitted and showed their feelings, that is in control and the Like-ee is merely the receiver of this.
For example if Bob tells Sandy that he really likes her and wants to have a relationship with her or move in or whatever, then that whole experience is based on and reliant on Bobs feelings for Sandy, Sandy is merely accepting and responding to them. However if/when Bob realises he no longer feels this way for Sandy then it is Sandy who is left powerless and hurt.
In hindsight, you could say, your either risking getting hurt at the beginning (by being rejected by the person you like) or being hurt at the end (the break up) which inevitably last and hurts longer.
