“So, I don't know how to say this but for the last 5 years I've been in love with someone it was one sided I knew from the start that nothing will happen between us but I still had that one little hope I waited I never ever told that person because at some point he was my greatest friend I ruined everything I still waited on "maybe" and "what ifs" but y'know what happened? He got engaged I know people think it's not a big deal since we never dated but I know how hard it is for me even after trying so hard I still can't move on I keep pushing everyone away because I'm scared of attachments deep down I believe at some point everyone will leave you and I don't want to go through that pain again but oh, how much I want to be loved I want someone to love me despite all my flaws someone who never gives up on me what should I do? What am I supposed to do?”

First of all I am sooo sorry you had to go through it it's really tough knowing it was one sided but that hope led you forward but let me tell you something if it's meant to be it will be you are loved by the things around you
You don't just find love suddenly it comes when you lose it all I know right now it might sound weird but trust me there's someone out there who will love you respect you so don't you dare think you're unlovable and everyone has flaws the word perfection doesn't exist so keep going and find love that surrounds you
