Sometimes it is best to just let go. I am not saying cut out all the toxic people in your lives, but some people just aren’t worth holding on to anymore. It doesn’t mean you love them any less, in fact you may love them more than you’d like to and more than you know how to cope with - but that feeling might not be mutual. Does the relationship drain you? Does he ever text first, seek you out in crowds, sit with you when you’re alone? Does he actually talk to you, or does he let you ramble and rant senselessly about things and then leave you on read or only give one word answers? Oof is not an answer. I get working at saving a relationship, and at forming one, but if it’s been weeks or even months and he just draws away more then I’d say it’s time to just leave him alone. If you really loved him you would. You may be the most entertaining person in the world, or the most beautiful, but for some reason he probably finds you annoying. And he probably talks to other girls a lot, even ones he’s complained about being annoying before. Probably even seeks them out, texts them first. It hurts, I know. But if you are the only one working at making a relationship, and you’re nothing but entertainment for the other person; entertainment that readily goes to them instead of ever being seeked out, maybe it’s time for you to just find someone better. And if there isn’t anyone better, that’s okay. College awaits, one day. And there’s a whole big world. We’ll get over it.
