Hmm. I'll try to make this as short as I can so it won't be too tl;dr. xD -- ✖ We were close friends since 7th grade. We texted each other every single day without fail. ✖ He told he likes/loves me early Sophomore year. (2 years after we became friends.) ✖ Tried my best to be a b*tch to him so he won't pursue me anymore. I didn't want to ruin our friendship just in case we get into a relationship and things fail. But I did love him then. ✖ Failed miserably, so I told him I loved him too, summer before Junior year started. ✖ We got together around April 23, and broke up around May 25. He broke up with me. The "reasons" were a blur to me before, but I felt like it was about that girl I was jealous of. ✖ 23 days after we broke up, I learned that he and [i]that girl[/i] got together. ✖ It took me 9 months to get over him. It was hard, but I did. ✖ I met my current boyfriend. <33
