at least i found out before i did anything stupid. back to sulking alone at home, i guess.
Is it normal to feel guilt over something like this?

That's what I was trying to do.
It sucks. I barely knew this guy so while I'm not heartbroken things didn't work out exactly, I am heartbroken that the first light I saw at the end of a long, dark 2 year tunnel suddenly went out, if that makes sense.
I don't want to say where I live.
