How do i deal with just being friends with a guy i like, who i pushed away without realizing it (we had a thing for each other during high school) He has a girlfriend now but he begged me to not avoid him coz of it... I try so hard to control my emotions, to accept the reality but it doesn't help... he always tries to flirt with me, or remind me how much he still loves me... I don't want that kind of friendship because i have to pretend i don't feel the same way coz i don't wanna ruin his relationship and i told him that... Even though i get sad when i see him with his girlfriend... i still wanna be a good friend by not giving in to the temptation with all the mixed signals he keeps sending I try to stop texting him but i always find myself texting back coz i like talking to him I don't know what to do, how to let go without crying myself to sleep.. I like him, yes and i wanna have him as a friend but i dont think its working for me!! How do i leave without hurting myself , how do i let go and not have regrets? I need advice please!!
