Unrequited Love


Question Posted Friday January 11 2008, 8:17 pm

15/female

I have been in love with my best friend, who is also female, for almost a year now. I told her how I felt around February of last year, but she didn't and still doesn't love me back. What's worse, she has a boyfriend that she loves deeply.

It's just, I can't get over her no matter what I do! I really do think I'm in love. I'm in therapy right now, once a week, because of both these relationship issues and my depression. I have talked to her plenty about it. I have tried "putting myself out there" as much as I can, being an introvert, but even after kissing another friend I still only have feelings for this one girl. I have even tried ending the friendship to maybe get away from her for a while so the feelings would go away and I wouldn't complicate her life so much; it didn't go very well.

So my question is, what can I do besides what I have already done?

hmm. all you can do as of now is just try to find someone else. you can always keep her in the back of your mind, no doubt about that. but try to focus on more important things, or start an activity that draws your brain to something else or possibly SOMEONE else. and remember if it IS true love, then love will find its way. i'm sure that everything for you will work out in the end. and you know, i bet that your best friend and her boyfriend probably won't last because of the age now. theres a lot of life left and im sure that you will be able to find the person you deserve!
hope i helped :)

well, im a guy, but i have had really deep feeling for a female friend of mine for a while now. ive told her, and nothing has happened. we occasioanlly still talk about it, and even joke about it. ive found that this has helped me immensely. ive liked a friend before, one i couldnt tell, and it hurt a lot more, even though i liked her less.
