idk what to do

so there's this girl that I've had a crush on for the longest time, I think about 2 years now. We're very close friends and we hang out all the time. We have this kind of flirty friendship and for all this time I would just lay all my hopes on that. Until she told me that she was rly into this other guy and when I saw how she was looking at him I knew I didn't stand a chance. I would always listen to her rumbling on and on about him and I never showed her that it hurt because it would ofc ruin our friendship. I'd never asked her if she would be interested in dating a girl but she looked like she would.

A few days ago we were talking about another girl and I was like ''just don't fall for her coz she's toxic af'' and I actually meant it coz I would never sabotage her no matter how much I like her and she told me that she wouldn't coz shes straight. ofc she knows I'm not and she's very supportive but now ofc I know that there is nothing I can do about it coz I can't change who she's attracted to and I can't seem to get over her. What do I do?

    You think now that you will never get over her but you definitely will.

    I can appreciate how hard it is for you. When you see the person you love, you could feel thrilled, on top of the world, and at the same time extremely sad. This is because you will never have more than their friendship. Although it's disappointing to have your love dreams dashed, you can lessen the psychological suffering by adjusting your own thinking. Take a look at your actual life situation. You will be able to let go of this person much more easily after you discover and deal with the reality. Try accepting each of these feelings consciously. You will benefit from being able to be truthful with yourself about what is happening. And remember, there's always someone you can talk to. Bless you!

    I know how you feel because I liked I girl, she was my bestfriend and she is straight and I really loved her. She told me about guys and about how she wanted a boyfriend who love her. Many years happened that but I am still think her and sometimes I text to her. I know it is hard to see her with someone else. Sorry for my English, I am italian girl.
