I got PTSD in 10th grade when the girl of my dreams turned me down, and since then my life has gone downhill

I'm 23 now and still have nothing accomplished. Can't stay stable enough to even finish one semester of college, and I been trying college since 19.

I just totally give up now and I know god doesn't care about me, just wish I didn't have to keep living

I am a firm believer that real love is when two people have the same strong emotional feelings and attractions for each other. One-sided feelings, like you experienced in 10th grade, do not meet this definition of love. When someone does not share your feelings for them, and they turn you down, it is actually a good thing. Why? Because it frees you to find someone who loves you in return; it enables you to consider looking for "real love;" and it gives you an opportunity and incentive to go find it.

No question, feelings of love that are not returned hurts a lot. But, experiencing "true love" rather than "one-sided love" is the real goal. No unreturned love interest is so important as to ruin your life over it. It's her loss that they did not appreciate your feelings. It's time to learn what real love is and how to look properly for it. It sounds like some counseling could help. Are you seeing a counselor?

Wish her luck in her life and get on with yours! Time is a-wasting! You are losing valuable time to date and learn new attitudes towards dating and towards women. It's time that you found your "true love" - someone who feels the same way about you that you feel for them! It's a wonderful feeling but it won't happen if you don't move on. Eight years is a long time. It's time to move on . . . NOW is that time! Your former crush is getting married. She is no longer available. Time to put her out of your head and find new love interests. Good luck!

Unhappy guy pretty much said it all. You need to move on now. It's time. See if you can get some therapy. Good Luck.
