A Charmed life: Phoebe's heart..

Just a backgorund on Phoebe's love life on the Charmed series; After Prue's death, Phoebe became the middle sister, who constantly tried to find balance in her life - A woman, a sister, an aunt, a force of good and most of all as a successfull columnist in a newspaper company. She was always giving advise to people about love and relationships, yet her own was quite a mess, so to speak. She had fallen deeply in-love with a demon named Cole. And after her tragic choice of choosing her family and the forces of good over love with an evil enemy, it had left her empty and unsure of ever finding love again...

Now, a person so dear to me has a similar situation so let's call her "Phoebe" to eliminate the confusion.

I've known Phoebe for a long time, we grew up together. Although as time passed we were still joined at the hip (figuratively) despite the fact that we were miles apart. The Phoebe I know, lived a good life; a pampered home, great parents who looked after her, a sibling who adored her, great education, and heaps of friends who loved her too, yet she thought something was missing...that special someone, until she met Jason Dean. Jason is a hard working fellow who devoted his time to two things; work and Phoebe. Jason is the type of man who likes to pamper the woman he loves, gives her everything - time, attention and a little more extra, even if Phoebe doesn't need it or like it. And Jason has a problem, in most cases he finds it hard to communicate verbally so instead he showers her with attention or gifts...something Phoebe did not enjoy over the course of their relationship, but kept it to herself, thinking it's a minor detail that can be worked on. But then she met Cole Turner.
Cole on the other hand, is very outspoken, ambitious, and challenging...something Phoebe needed to divert her attention from the mishaps that was going on between her and Jason. Although Cole sounds appealing, he was broken, mistrusting and sometimes resentful towards women that Phoebe thought she could fix with her maternal instincts, until she realised her instincts to fix him had caused her to fall in-love with him...so in-love that it caused her to end her relationship with Jason...so desperately in-love that after a while of being together they where in total bliss with each other, but then Cole decided to crawl back into his hole of self-pity. It hurt Phoebe and almost tore her apart, and despite the pain she felt, she kept it from Cole and suffered on her own having only her friends and family for alternative comfort. But Cole has a good friend named DraKe, and Phoebe liked him as a friend and cared about him so much that during her times of outburst she confided in him and he advised her not to give up on love for he would be there to comfort her and even more.

Phoebe is now confused on what she would do. Should she continue to love Cole, even if she's no longer sure that he loves her back or have DraKe in her life and give him the chance to make her happy even if she did not love him back?
