How to get over a bad experience with someone you actually liked?

[Anonymous]

i had always had a thing for this girl and really liked her , had meet her at my local pub a couple years ago. she worked there but i also saw her there when she was off work sometimes. we talked a lot and seemed to get along really well , i felt there was a genuine connection and though she liked me. but anyways the whole thing its difficult to explain but to sum it up things didn't work out and i'm left feeling rather empty and hurt.

i'm not really sure why things turned out the way they did or why she couldn't even be honest with me about such basic things.

for now she returned to school so i'm not seeing her in person anymore for the time being , not sure if she plans to ever return to that job or not? i obviously realise that it perhaps wasn't meant to be and open to moving on but not really sure what i want in a future relationship or what kind of girl i could find to date here.

one thing's for sure she won't be returning to that pub to work there anymore especially knowing you go there and used to go there and how you feel and felt about her it'll be to awkward for her to return there.

she's at school for the next 8 months , she only worked there this year from may - end of August , a lot of her girlfriend's worked there so not really sure what she'd do and if they plan to come back or not

i never asked her what her plans were and often she wasn't honest with me anyways

i guarantee you she won't be returning there and on the slightest chance she does she'll act like you're her aquaintance and nothing more

either way it doesn't really alter my plans to move on with my life , she might return there next summer if her girlfriend's are still there but its possible she could find something else if she was trying to avoid seeing me in the future. either way i'm obviously looking to meet other people and making an attempt at moving on to other things

i went to that pub on Friday for a drink but was less interesting with her and her girlfriend's not there , haven't been back since and tend to go there a lot less during fall / winter

obviously not going to spend the next 8 months sitting around waiting for the possibility she returns there especially when there is the chance she'll move on too. last year recall seeing her once around x mas so might see her before then but agree it will be friendly if she says anything

[FckY0u998]

no it won't be friendly it'll be on an aquaintance level
