I was with this girl I loved at a prom last Saturday. I first met her 4-5 years ago. I became friends with her, like, immediately. We both share the same interests, that being history, politics and acting. I began loving her half a year ago and tbh, it just sorta happened. So I decided to invite to that prom. Than, when it has gotten dark, I went with her outside, where I told her that I had feeling for her and asked if we wanted to be together. She replied that “we’re not the same”, despite our same interests. It felt like a whole world fell apart for me, it felt like everything around me fell apart. Which is why I went away, crying. I still fell depressed after hearing this, even though it was a few days ago. Which is why I’m wondering, how did it feel for you? Have you had any similar experiences?
This is basically my feeling too. Had some pretty major emotional upheavals as a teenager, but it all just feels kind of silly now I’m in my 30s. I spent such a long time convinced I would love no one and die alone, but it was all just time wasted making myself miserable for nothing.
If there was any advice I’d share with younger people now, it would be to not be stubborn. These feelings are intense, but they’ll fade in time. You might feel like you’ll never find anyone in your life that will grab you the way that one person has - and you might even be right - but that doesn’t mean you won’t find happiness elsewhere.
