Growing up, I thought it was a phase that would eventually pass- unfortunately it didn’t. Long story short- I have since accepted the fact that I am a guy who is attracted to other men- but I have decided not to act out on my attraction because of reasons that are too many to mention. Anyhow, about 6 years back, during my first year of university, I met this guy (jay) that I truly fell in love with. I knew that I’ve never felt this way about anyone ever before. We used to meet up for study sessions and I swear the only studying I did was him. My attraction towards him was not sexual at all- it was a really deep emotional kind of attraction. Some of the best moments I can recall are when we spent a few ‘all nighters’ studying at our university- we just ended up taking the night away. He was smart, kind, and drop dead handsome. I just could not work up the courage to tell him- It got so bad that I had trouble focusing on my classes, I was an emotional mess. And then enter really trashy girl (Sal)- she told me that she liked him and wanted me to hook her up with him since I was Jay’s close friend. So one day, I was talking to him about one of the girls (Sal) while she was sitting right next to me listening to music- and naturally, I said a few ‘negative’ things about Sal and told Jay to stay away from her and surprisingly he agreed with me- the only thing was that Sal was listening to our conversation the entire time (pretending to listen music). Things got really ugly- I didn’t care about my friendship with Sal- but Jay ditched me and made an effort to patch things up with Sal even though he didn’t even do anything wrong!. I just couldn’t take it anymore, I deleted my facebook account, blocked everybody on msn, and just lost complete contact with everybody…including him. I told myself he wasn’t worth it and got over him---or so I think. Also, I should mention there were the expensive gifts that I gave to him- and he never gave back anything in return.So here’s my question, why do I still get so emotional when I think about him? Its been 6 years since..and I honestly think I haven’t been able to get over him. What do you guys think? Thanks all.
