Once a Friend, Always a Friend
I liked this guy. Well, no, I still like him, I suppose. He really means a lot to me. He's the only one that can make me smile on horrible days. In my worst of times, he will make me smile. But something changed. It makes me sad to think of it. We will call him Alex, though that isn't his name.
I met Alex one day when I was talking to him about liking his friend. He told me how his friend really didn't like me and thought I was ugly and not his type. That hurt me. Alex told me that it was okay, to just forget about him. He cheered me up, telling me there was another guy out there for me.
I understood and kept talking to him. He would make me smile, saying how amazing I was. He made me forget about his friend. Then I focused on him. I usually talked to him through texting which was the most comfortable for me.
He continuing saying how amazing I was and how glad he was to meet me. I felt special with him. I told him I liked him one day. And he told me that he liked me. But something happened. He was talking to this other girl as well as me. And he went back and forth between the two of us. Then finally, he chose her.
Wow, did that hurt. It felt like someone had punched me in the stomach. I walked away. It was painful. Yet, I continued to talk to him.
They have been going out for a few weeks now. And still, I talk to him. I can't talk to him without the pain of thinking he chose her over me...I have an empty feeling. And the pain won't go away.
