I've never told him though,he even asked me if i like him and said no.He told me he would never date me because i deserve so much more than he could give me and that he doesnt think he could ever see us being all cuddly in public.He has a $12,000 car,a job,he gets straight A's in school.He is so handsome,and he has a good heart.He doesnt want a relationship right now,he tells everyone he's just looking for a good time,not anything serious for a LONG time.He always tells me Im beautiful,and i would make an amazing girlfriend,it just kills me to know that we'll never be together unless i wait around for ten years.And that would be stupid because thats wasting my life.and even then thats not garunteed.HOw do I make this pain go away when im constantly reminded because i see him everyday? How can i stop caring about him so much? someone please helpxoxo Reply to this Question Share |

Try telling him your feelings, it may backfire, but then again you may have found the love of your life. Life is about taking chances...some good, some bad. You never know unless you try. And if things don't work out, 30 years from now, you won't have to struggle with "What could have been." All my prayers Dear One.

Yeah hell its painful, but distance yourself from him slightly, take different routes, don't talk to him etc, and talk to other people. Eventually, I promise, you will meet someone else that can love you now.
