writes:Hey everyoneI don't really know what I'm asking exactly but I guess I just want advice on how to get over this guy who I've been thinking about non-stop.I've known him since we were both 5 as we went to the same primary school. I always got along great with him and we always had a good laugh, but I only ever really thought of him as a friend, even though he sometimes hinted that he wanted us to be more.After a while we lost contact with each other and I found myself thinking about him a lot and about what a great guy he is. Then one day a few years ago I saw him on the street. He started calling my name but at first I really didnt recognise him because he looked so different and I know it sounds crazy but I started to get freaked out because one of my friends had only a few months beforehand had an incident with a random guy following her. So I panicked 'cos he started walking after me and just as I began to recognise him one of my friends who was with me yelled at him and dragged me away.I always felt really guilty about not recognising him quicker and I always wondered what would have happened if I had stopped to talk to him.Anyway recently our school had our debs/prom and he was there. I was really surprised but pleased to see him but he totaly blanked me and acted as though he didn't see me at all. I know it sounds like payback for what happened 2 years ago and I probably deserved it, but it really, REALLY hurt. I felt like he just crushed me and it ruined my whole evening. I would even have been happy to have this guy as just a friend in my life 'cos he always was the sweetest person ever and now I just feel like he's totaly indifferent towards me so we can never even be close again. Its like I've just suffered this huge loss on top of other things like family and friend problems. I guess I was just wondering if anyone had any helpful suggestions as to how to get over a great friend. Thanks.

It seems your contact with this friend is diminished a little bit. I would suggest getting into more contact with him, and see where that goes? Explain to him that your friend had an incident. But, if you thought it was him, you would have contacted him over Facebook or something to apologize if it was him. But he may forgive you, and you guys can become better friends. Hope I helped.
