BETTERFLIRT agony auntThis is not something I want to say when knowing the concequenses however Being a sociologit - 'social scientist who studies institutions and development of human society' (definition of a sociologist provided by Moderator) I see how people deal and react with it when being in that position.

1, Whatever someone wants in life can be attending. I am so clear and fixed on what i have said. If this is the guy you surely feel attractive to I do not see the reason why to keep fighting for getting him. I do not say to go for him because now the blank space is full nonetheless why not thinking to get an opportunity.

I know what I am sayng. Having someone does not really mean his heart is satified with the choice, who knows if you would not be the best one? Find out to know.

The other point at the same time is to answer the question of asking if you have to give up or not. You got asking the question the answer. Giving up for me is the expression of nothing will work. If after trying you do not see any sign of hope why to keep wasting your precious time? But before you decide to leave make sure you try every posibilities. I hope love can be your goal, and getting back to him could be the best result you ever found.

A male reader, no nonsense Aidan United Kingdom +, writes (3 May 2012):

I’m afraid that yes, you probably need to try and move on. A long distance relationship would be hard enough, but most importantly he has a girlfriend. You sound like you’ve already accepted that it might be time to move on, but I suppose it just feels so hard? It will do, but reducing your contact with him will help you. Would it upset you too much to be just friends? If so, maybe you just need to wish him well and agree to go your separate ways in life. If this is a friendship you want to still have (accepting that there can be nothing more), reduce the amount of contact. The occasional email to catch up and see how he is, is a lot different to cute emails exchanged on a regular basis. It’s putting that bit of distance between you to help you come to terms with the fact that nothing is going to happen beyond friendship.

I wish you all the very best.

eyeswideopen agony auntYou "fell in love" at the ripe old age of 8-10 years old? Most certainly move on.
