We'll call him... X. Appropriate enough.
We met through my best friends boyfriend, as they were best friends.
She called me and was like, lets sneak out with boys! I went for it.
It was me, the couple, and three of his friends. One of them being that friend, another my boyfriend (now, back then we were both too shy to talk to each other), and an other guy.
X and I started talking, I didn't know who to talk to, and he was strange, but interesting..
He was the same height as me, had dark hair cut short, glasses, acne, and the a really deep, but occasionally high voice.
We talked a lot.. eventually my current boyfriend and the other guy, they felt left out or something.. bleh.
So X, the couple, and I walked around.. til 4 am. Maybe 5. He walked me home while the couple went else where. We said our goodbyes and I talked to him occasionally.
A few weeks later he called me (I hadn't given him my number..) and we hung out, then went to see Iron Man. It became apparent that he had feelings for me.. I didn't feel the same way.. eventually my friend told him.
I was told he was devastated.. I talked to him about it , but it seemed our friendship was damaged.
Throughout the summer we talked A LOT, I thought of him as a best friend, we hung out occasionally. It was obvious he still had feelings for me.. I didn't know what to do.. he was such a good friend but I didn't like him that way.
The school year started, we still talked quite a bit.. however I started hanging out with the guy who would later become my boyfriend. My boyfriend is X's good friend.. I know I shouldn't of, but this guy and I had so much in common.. I'm terrible.
X asked a lot of people if I liked this guy, my best friends, and my good friends, but he never found out. He distanced himself from me. I was hurt.
Then, my boyfriend really became my offical boyfriend. X hasn't started a conversation with me since. He has a girlfriend now (his first ever..) in fact they started dating a few days after my boyfriend and I were official.
Shouldn't he be over me by now? It's been quite a few months.. probably 8 since I last talked to him. Can't we go back to being friends? I loved talking to him. I feel like all he wanted from me was a relationship, and that he didn't care about our friendship. I suppose he could be too hurt to talk to me now.. but I'd like some closure.
I'd like a guys opinion on this.. what should I do. I've talked to him on msn but he doesn't try to carry on conversation.
I miss him. this sucks. I've lost a good friend, but gained an amazing boyfriend.. ack.
Do I give up on him ? If he doesn't think our friendships worth fighting for then why am I even bothering after all of this time.
