What should I do? I'm lost.
Hi, I'm Hope and I'm 16. I know most of the problems I have are because of growing up psychically, but it hurts anyway.
I hope it doesn't sound too overdramatic.
Two years ago I moved to a new school. Among 28 new classmates, I got along very well with one in particular. We shared our taste in music and about a half of our views. We spent every free moment together, it was great. We used to talk 24/7. He was my first real friend. He helped me with my problems. I tried to help him with his. Soon I found out he had a crush on me. But I just wanted a friend and he was very shy about his feelings, so we stayed friends. A year later I began to feel something towards him, but I would not think about it as love then. I remained silent. Half a year later I realized I had lost him (I don't know how could I not notice it earlier). He found another girl. He would not care about me at all. Anyway, month later I confessed to him and I said I still want to be friends and he was like "I'm sorry" but nothing really changed. It was may 2016. I cry and think about him every freakin' day since then and it exhausts me. We didn't say a word to each other for a few months until I messaged him because I was worried. Later he said he is sorry and still cares about me. Our relationship got better since then, we sometimes talk a bit. But I still miss him very much, although we see each other every day, as we're classmates. And every day I see him with that girl. I used to be friends with her too. I feel like she's leading him on. And despite the fact that he certainly is not happy, he still tries to win her heart over - and that makes things even worse because I see that she is more important to him than I ever was.
I don't want to lose him completely. I want to spend time with him. The problem is, I don't know how to talk with him anymore. It makes me sad, I miss the past and I can't forget about it. What do I do?
I can't stand seeing them together, I can't talk with him, I can't forget, I can't stop loving him. Is waiting for an end everything I can do?
@Skoglandskap I can see why you are feeling this way, dear.
Have you considered taking maybe baby steps to try and talk to him again? Even if it is as little as saying "Hi, how are you doing?" or anything of the sort. Taking steps into talking to him again and feeling comfortable may be your best bet. If you need any help, feel free to message me.
Best of luck,
