He believed their advice held wisdom. Unbeknownst to him, the girl had always been aware of his affection. One day, he mustered the courage to confess his love to her, only to be met with rejection. His friends anticipated that he would turn to vices like alcohol or drugs, fearing he would ruin his life. However, to their surprise, he remained unaffected by despair.
When they questioned him about his seemingly undisturbed state, he calmly replied, "Why should I feel bad? I lost someone who never loved me, but she lost someone who genuinely cared and loved her."
The moral of the story is that true love is not easily obtained. Love entails selflessly giving to another person without expecting anything in return. If that love is rejected, it is the one who rejects it that ultimately loses the most valuable aspect of life. Therefore, one should never feel dejected or disheartened by such experiences.
