'I invested a whole year in that relationship, but got nothing in return'; Amala Shaji on past relationship

Social media influencer Amala Shaji has opened up about a past relationship and how she lost it. In an interview, she said that she was the one who first expressed her feelings, but was eventually ignored.

Speaking to Machans Vlog, Amala said she is someone who openly expresses love, but did not receive the same in return.

“I was the one who went and told him I liked him. I even did many things that boys usually do. Once, when I gave him flowers, he asked me why I was giving them,” she said.

She added that she had travelled nearly 300 kilometres to meet him and even went out for food together. He had also visited her occasionally.

“At the beginning of the relationship, he told me he needed some time because of work. I gave him maximum space and stayed away. Respect should be equal in a relationship. I did everything for him, but I never understood if he really liked me,” Amala said.

She also said that she once directly asked him about his feelings.

“I asked him if he truly loved me. At the start, he had said to wait for four to five months due to some work. I didn’t disturb him and kept my distance. I invested a whole year in that relationship, but got nothing in return,” she said.

Amala shared that when she told her father about the experience, he comforted her.

“My father told me not to worry and said a better person would come into my life. I once loved him, but he never understood it. It’s okay,” she added.
