how to deal with an unrequited love?
back in middle school, a girl transferred into the class next door. i never welcomed her properly, but the first time i saw her smile was when i immediately knew i fell in love.
and i'm a former straight girl. moments after, this straight girl(?) found out they weren't as straight as they thought they were.
we became friends through mutual connections, and sure enough, we've only become closer friends through the years. i already came out to her and our mutual friends as pansexual, but what she still hasn't figured out is the fact that i still have feelings for her. well, hopefully she hasn't.
i'm sure she's as straight as a wooden plank, so i wanted to know how people dealt with unrequited loves who they never had a chance with.

All my crushes have been unrequited, then again my being lithromantic (aka akoiromantic) and asexual also made me not want to pursue those relationships. Anyway, I did fall hard, though and it was painful and awkward, but eventually in my case, I fell “out of love”.

What ever you do, please, please, PLEASE let them know you have a crush on them before you lose contact with them. I've learnt this from experience. It will eat you alive inside. Even if they reject you, at least you said it and it'll feel so much better then trying to fall asleep (for example) 3 years later when you no longer have contact with the...... 1 reply
