I understand what you are all going through.
Last year, I was in loveee with this girl. But to her, we were only best friends. Many times I had told her I loved her, but she didn't love me like that. But she had told me she loved me. Like a brother.
That hurts even more.
But then she liked this other guy. A fat freak that barely had any friends. That really pissed me off, to know this guy was higher up than me. Anyways, her and I got into an argument and didn't talk for months. However, we've recently started talking again and we're just friends.
Back to the point. I don't regret what happened, I gave it a shot but it didn't work out. At least I wasn't left wondering.
