Someone once asked...

“I’ve been struggling for about a month over a close friend I developed feelings for. We used to talk every day. I confessed, and she said she didn’t feel the same, but we stayed friends and kept talking like before. I still had feelings for her, while she didn’t have the same feelings for me. She could casually tell me about her crushes, but I realised I couldn’t handle that the way I used to. She had broken up with her ex about three months before I confessed. They weren’t talking for a while, but now they’re talking normally again, and that’s been hard for me to see. The Munnar incident was when things changed between us. We’d talked about possibly going together, but then she went with other friends instead. She explained that the plan changed spontaneously, but I felt hurt and left out. After that, I told her we should stop texting, and I’ve been avoiding her for about a month. I thought we could go back to being friends, but I realised I still have feelings and can’t comfortably return to the old closeness. I miss how we used to talk, but I don’t want to keep chasing her or get hurt by hoping for something she doesn’t feel. At the same time, ghosting her doesn’t feel like me, and I don’t want to hurt her. I feel stuck between wanting to reconnect and needing space. It’s been affecting my mood, focus, and sleep, and I could use someone to listen and help me figure out how to handle it.”
