Hi Inky,

I ran into the same situation. It was over a man I had a major crush on for months. He drove the church van to a bible study group. We never dated or anything like that. We texted mainly and flirted via text only after some one told him if my crush. I was so excited that he texted me, that I went overboard with my emotions. One day, I got upset with him over something really stupid, I was so ashamed of my behavior and wanted more than anything to take back my words. It wouldn’t have mattered anyway, as I think the crush was only on my part and he was enjoying the ego trip and attention. Not once did he ask me out. I tried to apologize but he was rude..so things were left awkward. I am over him and have had boyfriends and dated since him.

Yesterday, I saw him coming toward me with his friend at a pumpkin festival we were having in town. I think he saw me and stopped. My heart started pounding. I acted like I saw a friend on the other side, waved and went in the opposite direction of him. I could not face him. I know how it feels, but I don’t know why too.
