Heartbroken


Question Posted Tuesday July 26 2005, 11:14 pm

I'm in love with my best friend. I've liked him for as long as i can remember, years. I haven't liked any one else within that time period. But we're best friends.

I've tried telling him, and he just wasn't (won't) feeling it. he has liked me before, but i kept it as friends.

But now he likes one one my good (female) friends. And he is constantly trying to be around her, even though they wouldn't be friends if it weren't for me. She has a boyfriend of her own. He just dosn't get the picture.

It kills me to see him try for her. Giving her the attention i've been dying for, for years. It really breaks my heart and i don't know what to do.

He already knows how i feel. I just do not know what to do. Or how to mend a broken heart.

I guess the saying ,"There's a find line between "friends" and romance" is true. You seriously need to think about this guy. For instance, he'll hang around your other friend while totally ignoring your wants and needs. Sounds a little immature to me. Usually the guy will talk to you about why he's not exactly interested instead of totally not getting the picture!!! Sometimes in your circumstances you have to be patient which is hard to hear i know!!! lol Maybe you should try a very deep email to him explaining everything!!! I know it's hard to put your heart out but you never know. Love doesn't make sense so dont worry!!! Be patient, keep trying to drop hints, and maybe talk to your (girl) friend about what he's trying to do. Maybe even she could help!!! You never know, it might work out or you might meet somebody even better!!!

Well this may be hard for you but the best thing to do is just give him up and go on with your life.If you have been trying for years and he still dosent want you the best thing to do is just go move on with your life and find another guy.And you or your frind needs to tell him to stop trying cause she already has a boyfriend.

*Good luck*

sweetie, if people had control over the feelings of the people they liked, nobody would be single. ever. and everyone would be happy. this isnt reality..reality is sometimes people dont feel the same way and i think everyone has been there at least once in their lives (for me its been many times )

well, you gave it your all..so pat yourself on the back for that because many times, feelings remain bottled up inside, at least you didnt keep yours bottled up.

what to do now? well..i would try my best to restore friendship with this boy until its no longer awkward.

as for the broken heart...time will heal it. yes, time. i remember thats what my mom told me when i was crushed when my heart was broken..at first i didnt beleive her, but its true. eventually things got better..things became easier ..and i thought about him less. did i still think about him? yes, every night..but at least it got to the point where i wouldnt be thinking about him all day.

i went out with friends and had a good time..i mmoved on and 2 years later i still care about him and miss him...but its much much better.

so i suggest you do the same..go out with friends, keep your friendship with this boy.meet new people...because life is funny. just when your about to sit down and quit..someone amazing walks into your life..when you least expect it. its one of the beauties of life.

i hope what i've said helped..

mending a broken heart is one of the hardest things to do. because you have been friends for so long, im guessing that you have built up a trusting system. i think (im sure you have been honest with him before) you need to tell him how you feel. and if he rejects just let him know that you will always be his friend. and maybe the love game will twist and you will be his first priorty. if you dont agree with me thats fine.

-laney :o)

dont forget, you cant just turn off your heart from loving. you have to go to the score and let it all drip until it stops

I'm sorry you're going through this situation. There is no cure for a broken heart other than time and moving on.

I would suggest talking to your friend (the female one) and telling her that you think that he needs to know that she is not interested. Maybe that will keep him from going for her and get his attention aimed elsewhere.

I know it's hard right now but I would take other opportunities if they come along. You don't want to spend your time waiting for this guy and miss out on Mr. Right because you were looking the wrong way.

Good luck. Keep your chin up. It will get better.
