    Gahhhh. I just need a place to vent. Can't talk to my friends about this cause they ask too many questions and I just feel sad. So let this be like one of my rare diary entries that I don't know where else to post, since I don't trust my tumblr or fb privacy settings. At least here I don't think yall will judge me too much. >< So thank you to PA for always being here for any of my needs :]

    What do you do when you think you're in love(or like since I don't know what love is) with two guys and you know that the one you think you might care for more could never want to be with you, but the other that you're just not completely sure about was interested in you? What can I do now that he moved on over deciding that I was too hung up on the other guy and is now talking to someone else? Just let it go cause it wasn't meant to be?

    I've been crushing on one of my guy friends for about a year now and I've been trying to get over it for about half a year now because I know it won't go anywhere. During this time, I made a new friend.I was too naive to realize that he was flirting with me the whole time. And I didn't even know how much I really liked him until he was seriously talking to another girl. Recently at a party, one of my best friends told me (drunkenly) that she was sad that we never got together.That night I couldn't sleep. All I could think about was all the times that we had hung out together and then I finally got all the signs that he was trying to send. He still flirts with me (I think), but I feel so guilty knowing that he has someone else.I don't want to pursue anything, even though everyday I want to spend time with him and hes one of the only people I want to talk to.Whenever I'm sad, I find him to make me smile.Tonight he asked me if I wanted to sleep in his room. I wanted so much to say yes, but ...

    I guess I can only thank him for helping me finally get over the other guy.Too bad I'm hung up on someone new that I can't have.:[

    Just hope you will find someone you really like and they share the same feelings as you. Fate will tell you as they will almost be 'glued' on to you. Not clingy glue, but I'm sure you know what I mean.

    things come and go
    what u miss may have possibly been the "one", but u never know... it could of been something worse.
    if it's meant to be, it will be
    if it's not... it won't

    its hard to get over someone if you think they were the one... but in the mean time, make most of whatever u had or have
    only time will tell

    It's all about timing. The only thing you can do is take this as a lesson. I've been in a similar situation before and after three years, I finally realized and admitted that it's very destructive to keep thinking about what could have happened or what you should have done. You can't go back and change anything. It'll only make you more depressed. Letting go is hard but it's probably the best option. Who knows if he might come back to you one day but if that's all you think about, you might miss out on maybe another guy in your life.

    Seems like he still has feelings for you. You should say something to him and from the looks of it, it doesn't seem like it's too late either. I'm in the same position as the guy, having feelings for one girl but she is interested in another or she doesn't even realize that I like her. I guess that saying is true that you never know how much something's worth to you until it gets taken away. I don't know why you feel so strongly about him but you don't want to pursue it. It kind of shows me you don't care enough or think that the guy should be the one making the move. In which case, I disagree and think that it's okay for the girl to do something about it too. The worst thing that'll happen is that he'll admit that he moved on, but I disagree with not doing anything about it. Do something about it!

    edit:
    oh can I take a wild guess? I'm guessing the guy you were after initially is better looking and more popular than the alternative guy, right? I'm guessing that because you said you care more about the first guy, even though the second guy seemed more caring about you. When you're feeling sad and terrible, the other guy was there for you. It seems like nice guys always seem to get stuck in the friend zone with girls because they don't do anything, or the girl doesn't want anything to do with them beyond friendship status. That's just from my personal experience

    Date him for a bit and then decide from there. (I'll leave "Date" open for interpretation)

    Wow sorry for such a late reply, but I didn't see your update until now.

    Funny enough, the second guy is actually more "attractive and popular" . I tend to have this weird thing for the kind of nerdy, socially awkward guys. I think its because I think the "normal" ones are out of my league ><. But the awkward ones are always the ones who have no female interaction experiences.. and thus things never happen with them. I'm not really willing to make the first moves (esp. without any experience in anything). I like the nice guys though. With me, nice guys really stand out.. but they tend to get sorted into the friends zone quickly because they're just "nice". Kind of like in the WongFu video.
