After thinking this over I decided to just leave her be. If she comes my way then great, but if she doesn't then fuck it. I'm tired of trying.
there ya go.
admittedly I only skimmed this thread because after the first page I could see it was gonna be the same thing over and over. first of all, do you agree with this? "all's fair in love and war?" if not, find out what your boundaries are. if yes, then do exactly what you want to do. if you want to forget about her her, do so. if you want to talk to her about this, do so. if you want to moon over her and drag yourself into a ditch of unrequited love, do so. all in the name of love, right? you can't control her, so don't start thinking that what you want is for you to be together. what do you want from YOURSELF? to grow a pair? do so.
sorry to be harsh but I've been in your situation and that would have helped me. was completely in love with him, knew he had a girlfriend and convinced myself I could change that. couldn't. and if I had, I don't think I would have liked the outcome anyway because some other girl would have done the same thing to me eventually.
personally, I would recommend that you move on. if you're meant to be together, she'll come back into your life somehow. I know it's hard because you're attached to her now and you don't want to have wasted time/energy and have failed - but if you gave it your all, didn't hold back, got stomped on, learned from it, and moved on, that sounds like a success.
and to be even more honest...it sounds like you're a bit insecure. maybe you should spend some time figuring out why you don't want to try a relationship with someone who actually likes you
