I fell in love, at least I thought it was love, with my best friend. But, I always knew that though we were buddies but I wasn't his kind of girl. Though he was about to confess that he was falling for me (I could read his mind, so I knew what is coming and I diverted it) I never expressed my feelings and eventually we moved away. No hard feelings, just distance reduced our bonding.
I always missed him, tried to keep in touch with him. He was okay with me, while he was moving on with his new life (He went over to other place for college and I started working). Our interactions reduced and finally died out. I don't know how he had felt when I didn't allow him to express but knowing him so well, I knew I wasn't right girl for him. And so, I say I loved him as his happiness was more important than my own.
I secretly wished our paths crossed somewhere, we meet in some journey or may be come face to face when we went to our hometown but that never happened.

Then, I received his marriage invitation. I didn't attend because he personally didn't invite me and that hurt me. And the day he got married, it was like a switch was turned off and I suddenly stopped missing him. Thinking back today, I'm wondering why did it happen like this...

Any thoughts?
