I am inlove with a guy for more than 3 yrs. now. We've never been together but we exchange I love you's, hug and kiss each other. We're bestfriends and I think that both of us were scared to tell each other that we want to be more than friends. 2 years ago, I moved into a new school and I never got the time to see him since my new school and home is quite distant and I wasn't able to text or call him since I was still busy unpacking and getting used to my new surroundings. He was actually my bestfriend then but I think that was the title we gave for each other to call than boyfriend/girlfriend. We couldn't be together then since his ex-girlfriend's my bestfriend and we were still very young. I was in the 7th grade then so I knew that my parents wouldn't allow it. He never really courted me then but somehow I know that he loves me and I love him. After 5 months of separation, our 'friendship' got cold. We never really communicated. I texted him on Christmas day and found out that he already has a girlfriend. Before we separated, we swore to each other that we wouldn't go to a relationship and that we'd wait for each other but I guess it was my fault because I never really had the time to talk to him or meet him for a long time. Until this day, after 2 years, we haven't seen each other. He's been in many relationships after I left. I want to move on the same way he did but I just couldn't. I love him very much. I want to let go but I don't know how. I don't even know if he even really loved me or if he just used me as a rebound after my bestfriend broke up with him. I tried to ask him many times but I'm scared to. I don't know what to do. I'm really confused.

Hey Honey

You have to move on like this "friend" has. He did not give you the title of girlfriend because he was respecting your relationship with your bestfriend, and he has found another girl for that matter also.

You have to admit he couldn't have been your true love cecause when you moved he became very low on your proirties.

Get on with your new life, I'm sure another guy is just waiting to meet a nice girl like you.

Good luck x
