i confessed my feelings to this girl i know for like 5~ years now and i slowly got rejected over the span of a week, the worst part is she told me she was inlove with me in the first 2 years weve known eachother, i liked her back then but i didnt do anything because i felt like i wasnt good enough, now she just wants us to be friends but i cant get her out of my head.
everyone tells me i need to move on and that “shes not even that great” and stuff like that but i think i genuinely loved her and its come to the point where i would cut all ties with her just to get it out of my head but i dont know what to do.
when she rejected me she said stuff like “im not attracted to you at this time” and “you shouldnt be putting in most of the effort” but it just made it worse.
i feel like i could make it work if i just tried hard enough but on the other hand i essentially got “no” for an answer and should move on.
ive been dealing with depression recently and since for some reason i thought she would 100% say yes i thought of the confession as a good thing but now im feeling even worse.
i feel like everything i strived for in bettering myself was for her. and now that i know shes not interested i have no reason to go on.
shes a good friend but i cant stand the thought of her being with somebody else.
