I get the hint

I need to stop peeking on the one that got away. I hate that I have. I feel pathetic. I had delusions that they felt the same for me but just now it clicked that they are trying to tell me that they don't. I need to let go.

Same thing happened to me dude. You just need to grieve and focus on being the best version of yourself. Love.

Yeah. I get it. Need to let go but just don't want to. Sucks. I know the feeling, got the t-shirt and wrote the book. But, you gotta let go. They will consume you. Trust me...from someone who can't follow his own advice

Been there,

done that, ended up feeling like some sad ass country&western song that I couldn't stand. I'm sorry you're hurting so much.

When I was younger, I used to become so totally smitten with someone that I couldn't assess the situation clearly. I could barely think rationally at all. Then, suddenly, it seemed, the person wasn't returning my calls and reality slowly began to set in, leaving me sitting there, up to my neck in smit.

Pamper yourself, be kind to yourself. Try to keep your feet firmly on the ground next time. Good luck.

Have you tried...

Actually talking to the other person. So many people assume what other people feel based on what they think the other person is doing or not doing. Have you said or done anything to indicate your interest. This person may be clueless about your feelings. Most people are, if there hasn't been any clear indication on your part.

If they're the decent person that you think, chances are that if they're not interested that they'll be gentle with letting you down, but if they are interested, they could be just as unsure of your feelings as you are of theirs. If you want to be really sure you may have to risk being disappointed and maybe embarrased a bit, but that's better than always wondering what if!
