Well, where to begin? I think the poem pretty much speaks by itself - my crush (and friend) told me he can't like me back... And now I'm afraid that what I told him may distance us (or already distanced us). We haven't talked in about two days and I don't want our friendship to be broken by something like this. Any advice? It would be really appreciated

The hard truth is, if he doesn't stay to be your friend anyway after the dust has settled, he wasn't worth it to begin with. But in my experience, things like that are rare; usually, time heals. It's only been two days; give him a week.

I had something extremely similar happen to me a couple years ago but it didn't end as tragic as quick. Basically, I started liking my best friend of 3 years, but I was scared to tell him because I was afraid of losing him. I did tell him and he told me that he had a feeling for me too, but he wasnt ready for a relationship yet. We got closer over the next year and he eventually told me that he knew his feelings and proceeded to ask me out. I told him I wasnt ready and I wanted to wait until we went back to school. We went to the fair together and I thought things were going well until he told me that he had mixed feelings. Then he told me that he wanted to remain friends out of the fear of hurting me (even more). I was devastated. Our friendship was shaky after that but after talking and hanging out again, we're pretty much back to the way things were. My advice: be honest with him. Tell him that you understand that he doesnt feel the same way about you, but you dont want to lose him as a friend.

this is really well written, but i am sorry you are having trouble. i don't know how deep your friendship is/was but if you think it is strong enough to move on, i would tell your friend that. say you don't want your friendship to change and hope you can stay friends. that way you get the awkwardness out of the way soon and things may begin to subside. do whatever you feel is right tho. i hope things get better.

awwww im sorry you're feeling this way :( i would advise you to not try to rush back into your friendship and spend time focusing on yourself (hobbies, friends, etc.). i hope that the awkwardness between you two will subside soon <33

Oh, I'm so sorry! You don't deserve this, dear. You're far too talented for anyone to be making you sad! Beautiful piece, though :D

This is so heartbreaking but beautiful!! I don’t know what to say except I’m here for you, praying for you, and maybe consider letting him read this? It’s really touching. Idk.... this is an amazing piece tho!
