Who do I love
I'll never tell
His hair dark as the night
His eyes blue as the sea
His mind filled with knowledge
His heart warm and tender
He is my prince
And I'm just a Little Mermaid

This is about the one guy I love, who doesn't quite love me back.
I think.

Well, I'm glad that things are at least getting a bit better.  I don't entirally know or even think that there are any wise words that'll make the pain go away... or to even help cope. Different words help different people.  But honestly recovery is just something that comes naturally, you know?  It, really, just is going to have to take time.  I pray that the relief will come soon for you.  From your work, I see that you're a strong individual, and you'll make it through... but half the battle is just believeing that you can. (this comment turned out to be a lot longer than I thought it'd be.  But I hope this helped somehow)

That's okay, you can ask. I can trust you. I'm doing better, I'm still sad, though.

Thanks. Yeah, he said to me [via Facebook] "I do not like you like that." I cried for an entire weekend. :(
