reader, anonymous, writes (11 July 2009): i think you should arrange it so that you live impossibly far from her, so that you two will be unable to see each other in person. it's really painful to lose someone at first, and the increased distance at first sinks in like a knife cutting, but it is a necessary pain to go through if you are trying to progress from a romantic relationship to true friendship...especially if you are sure you don't want to be with her, then keeping a huge distance will be best for both of you in the long run, even though it will hurt for a while. you are so young, so don't let this one situation bring you down. you have so much time to meet other people, and she will be your friend in the future if you both don't out grow one another by then. stay strong and start to build your life around what interests you, far away from her. if you keep depending on her and on this shaky situation, it is going to get more and more difficult to move one to something that works better for you.
