However, she freaked out, saying it was wrong because we were of the same family. Now, i'm hurt and always crying. She isn't talking to me anymore... it's being 4 months already... i can't stop crying... help... help... help...

I just want my friend back... I regret so much telling her how I feel...

reader, anonymous, writes (24 August 2009): hello, what a tricky situation. sometimes when you become close to someone, you begin having feelings for them, and some of us tell people how we feel, some of us keep it to ourselves. part of me says well done on being brave enough to tell the truth.. the other part of me thinks it may have been a mistake.i dont know the ins and outs of it, but it sounds like your cousin doesnt feel the same. this is hard to accept because when you like someone it hurts to find out they dont feel that way too, but you have to try to accept it. i want you to think about something for me, do you feel it would be better to have your cousin back as a friend if nothing else? if this is the case, then you need to speak to her and tell her that despite what you told her, you want things to go back to normal between you. obviously this will be hard, but if you do think its better to be friends rather than nothing then you must be willing to try. also, no matter how hard it seems at the moment, like you say youve been crying alot, you will eventually move on. even as an agony aunt, i cant tell you exactly how to do this, because really, only you know how to do it. you just have to keep positive. good luck. AAJ.
