One of the biggest mysteries of love is that you have full access to your feelings for the other person but often have limited access or no access to their feelings for you.

Love is one of the most powerful emotions and positive feelings around. But love that is not mutual can be devastating and shattering to your confidence. Once you realize you love someone it's critical to find out if the feeling is mutual.

If your partner is not forthcoming with their feelings, don't be afraid to ask. It's better to get the truth now, rather than waste months or years on someone who may not have loved you from day one.
