It hurts...

The pain of not having who you want was eased by being able to at least be near him for an hour....a minute?

Exchange ideas or jokes.
I have stopped myself.

From hoping, from denial. 

It hurts like hell. It still does sometimes, but not as much anymore.

You’ll get through this. You are doing what is best for yourself.

Yes, you got hurt caring too much. 

That’s part of being human.

I don’t know if I can be friends with him after all this.

You don’t have to.

But I want to.

I know you do.
