I caught feelings for my friend of nine years

I caught feelings for my friend of nine years... My bad tho she straight up told me friend zone only. Then like a month ago things got spicy but she still said no feelings. She went to meet this dude she liked and they hooked up. She told me and it wrecked me. Heartbroken over something that wasn't even real. But she was like my only real friend the closest person to me. I told her how I felt but she didn't feel the same. Now I'm trying to just cut her off completely but it's so hard. Anyone else been here? How'd you get over it? Did you ever link back up? Feeling extra lonely rn cuz I got no one to talk to about this.

You’ll move on when your heart is ready not on a timeline.

There’s nothing pathetic about hurting over this. When someone meant the world to you even as a friend letting go is just as hard as any other kind of breakup.

You’re not wrong for wanting to cut ties it’s hard to stay close to someone who doesn’t see you the way you see them. But be patient with yourself through this process.

Feeling lonely after something like this is real. But trust that in time you’ll rebuild—new connections new friendships and maybe even a love that chooses you back.

Losing someone you cared about, even if they weren’t truly yours is a kind of heartbreak that doesn’t get talked about enough

Unrequited feelings hit differently when the person was your closest friend. Walking away is painful but sometimes it’s the only way to protect your heart.
