This year, things got better. Toby and I were still dating, but not for long. Brendan moved away from town. You weren't in my class and Julie was in one of them. I had started to feel better about everything that had happened the last few years and started moving on. I made friends with a boy named Tyler. I, for the most part, quit self harming and started to be okay. Then I started thinking, "okay, what was that feeling in 6th grade and that sadness in 7th?" Towards the end of the year I felt this urge to be friends with one girl in particular. Then I realized, no, I had a crush on her. I started to put all of the pieces together and realized I liked you in 6th grade, was heart broken over you in 7th, and got over you in 8th. I finally decided that I was bisexual and didn't tell anyone about it for a while.
