How do I move past this?
Relationship Stress / by determinedMelon3300
Last post
 April 28th
...See more I was scared to lower my guard and be vulnerable with a person. I had issues with trust and the first time I took a risk in trusting and opening up to someone, I feel like I got screwed over. It wasn't even a relationship, maybe it was more like a situationship? I don't even know now. I've asked and clarified where I stood but I never got an inch of clarity or even direct rejection. It was always "never knowing what the future holds". I feel so dumb now for staying and hoping that it will change. I feel even more stupid for catching feelings and knowing it will not be reciprocated. I feel so pathetic for letting it reach this point. I've held on long enough only for me to get betrayed and lied to. I can't help but be angry at myself for allowing this to happen but at the same time for being too forgiving despite the pain and hurt this caused me. I'm struggling to detach but I really really want to let go. I hate that I'm still hoping and longing for something but I know it's so toxic already. My mind's a mess and I don't know what to do or where to start for me to get some sense of relief and freedom. 😭
