Think I've lost a friend who might have been more

Question - (9 August 2016) 2 Answers - (Newest, 9 August 2016)
A female Australia age 26-29, anonymous writes:

I have had a best friend for three years. At the start of our friendship I let him know I had feelings for him. He was unsure of my sincerity and so did not tell me he did in fact reciprocate my feelings.

He has recently informed me that he has in fact had feelings for me the whole time, and I told him that I still do too. He moved away last Christmas and also recalled that I had once said I never wanted to do long distance dating again as my last LDR wasn't ideal.

We both decided that it would be best to stay friends even though I was and still am unhappy about that decision, and made my opinion obvious in what I feel is quite a pathetic way. Instead of being mature and trying to move on, I had trouble coming to terms with the situation and threw quite a few passive aggressive comments his way.

He has barely talked to me in the past week and half arsedly responds to my questions asking him if something is wrong. We usually would speak every day. I'm not sure if this is too much to read but I really am not sure what to do as I'm afraid of how things will turn out.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (9 August 2016):

to me it sounds like your a little angry. you feel all the time together you spend as friends was wasted as you both liked each other more than friends but didnt move to the next level and now hes gone your more heart broken . You could explain this to him , that your sorry for all the 'bad' worded messages between you its because your angry about the time wasted not being more than friends and now hes left you miss him more . How much do you really like him tho enough to try again with a long distance relationship ? just because it didnt work with one person doesnt mean the same will happen with another

A male reader, Denizen United Kingdom +, writes (9 August 2016):

Denizen agony auntPeople come and go in life. Some you see regularly; some sporadically; others never again.

This man wasn't sure if he wanted a different, more romantic relationship with you. He was prepared to let you go. He hasn't really changed in that respect. There is nothing you can do to force this. It has to come from both sides.

Sometimes you just say, 'C'est la vie'. And wait for the man who loves you like no other.
