I am a straight woman and I am in love with my gay best friend. He and I share such a deep connection that he's even admitted to me that if he wasn't gay, we would have been dating a long time ago. Knowing this literally kills me a little bit everyday and I can't stand the fact that I can never have the only person I will ever love. Its really difficult for both of us because he knows how much it hurts me and he feels really bad that this is happening to me. I have tried to forget by getting a boyfriend, but time and time again, I eventually realize I will never love them as much as i love my best friend. I am so scared that i will be alone for the rest of my life because he will eventually find a husband, whereas I only ever love him. The pain is so severe that I have been considering cutting myself off from him. I want the pain to stop. Any advice?

Go out more often and meet more people. One is bound to make you feel the same way you feel about your friend. It's not about finding a replacement, but really if you meet enough people, one in the bunch is bound to make you feel that way.
