this story isn't interesting you dumb ugly bitch
>>8388885
> work with her the next night, being super awkward and avoiding her, she says "what, you're not going to talk to me now?"
> ask her how much of what she said was true and how much of it was just her being drink and desperate not to lose me
> she says it was all true, talks about how she's afraid to leave M because they've been together since high school and they live together, says she doesn't know what to do and she's going to ask her mom for advice, reiterates "I do love you"
> tell her I love her too, and now she has me fucked up
She says why, because you don't know whether to stay or go?
> say yes, when really it's because I'm afraid to be gay especially coming out to my family
> don't really give her any reassurance that I'd stay for her, even though I've decided I totally would
> nothing happens, she doesn't leave M, we don't talk about it anymore
> have last day at job, hug her goodbye on the verge of tears
> moved this weekend
> will probably never see her again
I don't know why I'm posting, I guess I just need to vent. I feel heartbroken, like nothing will ever be ok again, confused, I don't even know what my sexuality is anymore, but mostly I just miss her. I don't know what to do.
And I have to suck it up and be a person to start my new job tomorrow.

>that ending
Really heartbreaking, dude. I hope you will be okay.

Stopped reading there. Unforgivable. Get off this board.
>>8388932
Well how far away is your new job?
>>8389011
Damn, that's hard. I really feel you here.
I'm sorry I wish I could give you some advice. You still gonna text or whatever with her?
>>8388833
>She says why, because you don't know whether to stay or go?
Well, thats sad, you have to move on however
>>8389029
I don't know. I think it might be best not to. Maybe in a few months when I'm not so torn up over it.
>be straight female
Kek. When a post on this board starts with "be straight" they're NEVER straight.
>>8389078
Maybe yeah
I don't think I'd be able to deal with it if I were her and you kept talking. It'd eat me alive.

It's really hard moving on sometimes. I had to learn the hard way over and over that feelings even strong feelings aren't enough for a good relationship. In the end if someone isn't going to be there for you at the moment of truth then it doesn't matter. They might just fuck you up and move on.
