Don't waste time on people who are not reciprocating. Life is short. Find those who cherish you and hold onto them like they are the last things on this planet. At least, that is my perspective.

Well, bpcyclist, I don't know if she truly loves me or not, but it did seem like she was pretty bent out of shape whenever she thought she hurt my feelings. She felt so bad that I had to convince her for hours together that she didn't hurt my feelings. And this is coming from me, a person who doesn't chat with people all that much. Like very minimal text contact.I've had crushes where they didn't reciprocate the care I had for them, just like you said, but this felt different. She cared how I felt.
Whether I should continue being her friend like TishaBuv said, or be distant with her like MsLady suggested is gonna be really hard to decide. If only my aunt were doing better with her Melanoma treatment, I could have been a little less emotionally all over the place to think straight.
