I did that in my life and I wasted those years because the man kicked me to the curb.
Well, the essence of waiting is your deep love and faithfulness on loving such a man.
But!!!! Be sure there is an assurance from the other side (whom you are waiting for) that he is also waiting.
The essence of a waiting: you are both reciprocal in doing such "true waiting" which involves honesty, sincerity, openess, patience and faithfulness and the root essence of this is the unconditional love both man and woman shall have!
True love when meant to be is worth waiting for and if he/she comes back to you then that's true love.
My advice: if you're in a long waiting... be flexible and get ready just in case a hard-knock-bitter part come that he would change his mind just because he met someone new. This is the big risk of waiting for so long especially if it is a continental away/distance.
The hidden essence of such waiting is that you are convinced and sure that he is the "true right one" for you!
"True waiting is when you are both convinced that you shall share the same vision of a horizon waiting for you both."
(from novel A Waiting Swan)
It's very tough to wait for someone!
Good luck!

The essence of waiting in that case is to me to expect something from nothing. The waiting is being inactive while waiting for something to happen. Once the person acts the waiting/inactivity is over.
I don't think it's advisable to to expect something from nothing. Sure sometimes golden birds fall from the sky and land in your lap, but why would anyone sit and wait for that to happen? Let the person you love know about it, let them go if that is what they need, but do stay in touch. What if the person doesn't think that you care and goes on to build a life without you, even though they would rather have been with you if they had known that you cared? Also, while doing the waiting your own life passes you by. Your life is meant to be lived to the fullest while it is happening. Let go of worries, let go of things that is never meant to be yours, don't lock yourself to things that keeps you from moving forward. Live. Don't wait, be active and find out if you are waiting in vain. Wait if you benefit from it but don't do it inactively.

Each of us have our special someone and we tend to wait for them, sometimes they return to us or they just take another road in life. That's what life is all about.
Its all about chance, the essence of waiting is for love, happiness, joy, protection and for a warm hug or just a friendly pat on the back.

You have to keep living you do not wait you just do and if that special person comes into your life great if not who cares live your life for you and feel good about you no one can take that from you or has the right to devalue you in any way good luck :))))

essence of waiting is to always not the time of your waiting with a sop watch, so that you can make others see how long you waited for them.

I guess it would be to actually know for sure if it is meant to be. If you love someone, let them go,and they dont come back, ya that sucks--but at least you know its not meant to be, ya know? Waiting is half the fun sometimes. OR half the pain. b/c if they do come back--that waiting will be d*mn well worth it!

you should never rely on someone else for happiness you will only end up getting hurt. If the person your waiting for doesn't come back then you will lose not only them but hope as well.

You will learn who you really are without your significant other. You learn to be stronger, independent and you will have realizations why you ever fall for that girl or guy at the first place.
Like an old adage say, "Love makes time pass, time makes love pass".

It shows faith to that person, it shows that the person is willing to wait out his/her life for that special someone.

i believe one should only wait when BOTH that person is asked to wait and when he/she believes it is the best alternative. otherwise we could be waiting for godot forever...
