What should I read to overcome unrequited love?

Read books about beautiful requited love. Think about what the protag has that you don't, and make yourself miserable thinking about it. This will replace your pain of unrequited love

Plenty of books with cucks out there, it's how writers deal with the pain.

I was thinking about making a similar thread. I considered reading this book too but I'm worried it just might make me ruminate more.

thou should, unsarcastically, hit the meditation mat. the agony of desire will continue to grow until it is investigated and found to be impossible to satiate, and thusly discarded.

Hooker adverts.

Incel cope. The sex drive can absoutely be satiated, temporarily. When it comes back, just have more sex.
This is why sex-havers don't obsess about sex like incels do.
Do you think the cure for hunger is meditation, or will eating something also help?

>>24626322
We are talking about love, not lust, you demon.

Love is just nature's way of getting you to fuck.

>>24626341
Nta but WRONG
Read Otto Weininger
If you want to fuck the person you love, then you don't really love them
Freud called this the Madonna-Whore complex, and it was one of the most common one

>>24626345
>Read Otto Weininger
No.

>>24626349
Remain ignorant then, at least until you fall in love

>>24626341
Fucking is just God's way of getting you to love. I love (you) non.

>>24626357
I've been in love, and unrequited love at that. The best remedy was fucking other women.
Romantic love (or "one-itis" as the zoomers style it) not only tricks you into unrealistically exalting a specific individual, it makes you believe all other individuals are unworthy. Clearly this is a delusional and harmful imbalance.

this assuming you can get laid go fuck other women , get the notion of romantic love out of your system.

>>24626404
Falling in love pushes you to practice all your sainthood to compete with the beauty you've given the person you have fallen in love with. As you said, you don't generally want to fuck other women; you moreso stop caring much about them. So love is not nature's way of getting you to fuck, it's nature's way of getting you to slow down and settle down. Fucking other women is going against nature in a conscious effort to kill love -- a natural feeling. So it's only an imbalance if the love is unrequited; and one that is also cured, after a certain amount of time, by falling in love with another person.

Scum.

You are diseased, as are many. At least acknowledge it rather than pushing your disease as health. Maybe then you will be able to heal. If everyone believed what you did there would be no chance of civilization recovering. Love is the most eugenic form of mating.
>>24626345
I love Weininger but (now) tend to believe he’s wrong on that point. The sex of transcendental sexual love is operating of a whole other frame than the base desire where the women in question doesn’t even matter

>>24626345
> If you want to fuck the person you love, then you don't really love them
And he said this was just at the time, because its empirically the case that the strongest sexual craving will be for the same person who one feels the purest love for—but not at the same time. Again, not sure if I think this framing is helpful

i am an indifferent incel. i don't give a shit that i don't get pussy. There is more to life than fucking bitches
i hate incels who whine about not getting laid. it makes them look like weak bitches

>>24626461
>So it's only an imbalance if the love is unrequited
No it isn't. The imbalance is innate. You invest one member of the opposite sex with divine powers, and dismiss all the rest. This is plainly an unfair estimate of all concerned.

>You are diseased, as are many. At least acknowledge it rather than pushing your disease as health
This is pretty funny, since the emotional extremes caused by romantic love are characteristic of mental illness. A more balanced and realistic view of humanity is surely healthier, and less subject to disappointment.

You need to understand hate, horror and the lowest lows of the human condition, to put human emotions in their right place.
Love is beautiful if you can have it, but should you have it?, do you deserve it? Does that other deserve your love, your pain, you angst?, or the other way around? Maybe just the existence of love is good enough, when others are having it love is being kept alive, maybe enabling the making and happening of love in others is the highest form of love.
Though, Selling love is like selling poison too, specially in this times, when love doesn't serve a higher purpose anymore like starting a family, but it is used just to have a moment of lame sex.

The entire purpose of romantic love is to bond couples together long enough to raise children. There's no escaping the sexual element.
And isn't it curious that, once the kid is old enough, the love phenomenon tends to wear off and couples get divorced.

Nothing. You know what gets you over unrequited love? A girlfriend. I used to obsess over this one Chinese girl I worked with. Thought she was the most beautiful girl I ever saw. I thought of no one else but her for years. But it was unrequited.

Then one year I started dating a cute Japanese girl. And I realized that she was actually better than my old obsession in every way. She was not only cuter, but also kinder to me as well. Our conversations were more interesting than the one sided, one word conversations with my old obsession. And suddenly that girl who always occupied my mind was gone. There was no point in even thinking about her, now that I had someone who actually made me happy.

What would make you a jolly incel.

Read: more childlike.

don't read something,
do something or write something

like some have said, try to meet someone new. you'll eventually crush on another person. it won't erase the old love but there's potential for the next one to actually be attainable

but please make art. personally that's the only thing that helps
