Hey! I’m new to this site but maybe I could give you some advice.
To me it sounds like you’re still hoping for a relationship with him and that’s okay. You can’t help how you feel. But my thing is that, I don’t understand how your best friend can switch up on you like that. He’s your best friend and he should treat you with more respect, not play with your feelings. Personally, I would not acknowledge it and let it be. He had more than once to get it right if he wanted to be with you. I’m all for never giving up, but at once point you have to. When it gets to the point that you’re starting to doubt yourself, become insecure, and feel confused; that’s the limit. If he cares for you the way he says he does, he will approach you. If he never does, then you know you made the right decision and he wasn’t worth your time.
Thats what I can give you right now, take everything with a grain of salt 🙂 I hope it all works out for you! You’re a beautiful person and these little bumps in the road of our life is are stressful, but nothing we can’t overcome. Remember to breathe deeply when you are stressed and now that thing will pass too. Best wishes Punkin <3
