The Conversation

when i was in high school i was friends with this guy, and i quickly fell in love with him. i was too afraid to tell him how i felt because i was scared of being rejected. we ended up going to the same college, and during our freshman year i finally told him how i felt even though he had a girlfriend. i just needed to get it off of my chest. he said i should have said something while we were in high school. after that night, we didn’t really talk again. he continued on with his life, but i’ve never really been able to move on. it’s been a year since we graduated and he lives in a different state, but he occupies my every thought. i just can’t seem to get past the “what if’s”. it also doesn’t help that i’ve never dated anyone so i haven’t had the chance to feel that way about someone new.
