might be family...or a mistaken friend....


Question Posted Thursday October 28 2004, 11:51 am

about 4 years ago, when i was 11 i met this guy, he is 4 years older than me. he was a counselor at one of the many camps i go to. he helped me a lot with stuff at camp, but after that week, i barely ever talked to him, until 2 years ago. he would call me every few months, and we would just catch up on things, and you know, just talk. he was a great counselor, but even better, he is a Christian and that helps me out so much because he can give me insight from what he knows God might say. He built me up, and helped me through many deaths of friends and friends families. he always knew what to say and when to say it. this past summer we have been EXTREMELY close, we talked almost 5 times a week. id would go visit him because he lives hours away from me. but i could only get up there a few times, and he only came down to me once. it wasnt much effort on his part, ive always realized that. well when he was helping me through a really hard time i was having one night, we decided we would be like brother and sister. he seemed to always be there and always ready to help me out. now after school has started and hes gone off to college im having a really hard time cause he never calls. just the onther night i finally wrote him and told him everything! i had to get out to HIM what i felt. i thought that things again would change... guess not... he still doesnt call, and doesnt make any effort to really talk. it bothers me so much... i love him like a brother more than anyone can ever imagine, but what can i do? i want him to be my number one.... but everyone of my friends that i live with dispise me that i have someone like this in my life...or had someone like that. even my best friend is harsh on me for thinking about him a lot. my real question is should i give up waiting for him to possibly return... or should i keep waiting..... ???
((i think you might know who i am))

I know it's hard what you're going through, to hold onto someone that is very close to you, who doesn't seem like they are there anymore. He's helped you through some of your toughest times, and he has been one of only a few whom you can trust. It sounds like he's in college, which means lots of studies and crictuliar activities. Give it and him some time, as the saying goes "Keep on Keeping on" don't let him go, but don't hold onto that phone and expecting it to ring all the time. Praying will only help you and your situation. I'd say he's busy with school work and he might have some problems of hsi own, it's not you're fault, but maybe he can only take on his problems right now, and he may think that by you calling or writing that you might have a problem and he's not quite ready to handle on someone else, plus himself right now. College are suppose to be the supposible "fun years" but can be very hard and stressful. Let him come to you. All you can do is pray and keep having fun with your friends. All you can do is wait, and i'm not saying it WON'T be hard, because it will. Part of your heart is breaking because he's a big piece of your life. Try to glue some of the pieces back on, and when he comes back, all will be fair. Just hold on, and let the rollercoaster go it's ride, it might be bumpy, but it will get smoothe.

Hope I helped.. ( i love you ) yes i know who you are.
