I just got rejected

3 months ago · 1 · Rejection, +10


162

Sporty, handsome boy. Slick black hair with beautiful brown eyes. I used to like his friend and viewed him nothing more than an obstacle, but now I've fallen for him.

I told him I liked him. It was so scary. I wanted to write a note but I thought that was too cowardly. Knees shaking, eyes teary, trembling hands, I waited for his answer.

He just said sorry. Like just saying it would make me feel better when it was a tone that could say any word.

I feel like a stone just dropped into my stomach. Regrets fill me, if I hadn't told him I would never feel embarrassed. Now the one thing that made my life shine the brightest is null. I have no hope in him. When I see him, I just feel that wave of anxiety and shame not that happy, nervous but exciting feeling.

I'm so sad.

    I've been there before. The person I liked just brushed off my confession like it was nothing. I hope that this doesn't stop you from loving another person. I've moved on. I've loved countless other people after that rejection, I got hurt, I became loved, I broke things off, but believe in me when I say that time will heal it all.
