I have been through a lot in life too, which helps me to be able to empathize with situations, thoughts and feelings that we have. Sometimes, it's not easy just being human.

I know it may be difficult to keep thinking of someone, whether it is a loved one or family member, finding closure is hard. I know you're scared he might come to avoid you, but I think what's best is to focus on the present. Let yourself accept your feelings of longing, it is healthy to acknowledge your own pain. By learning to acknowledge your feelings and respecting yourself, you are opening up your doors to moving on from thinking about him. Respecting yourself means putting the other person on the same pedestal as you, treating him at the same level. Remember you deserve to focus on your own emotional needs, and through self-reflection and encouragement, I believe you will be able to move on and look ahead! Hopefully, by talking to other people, you will focus more on your other connections, the people present in your life, to help distract you. Whether or not you will socialize with him in the future will play less of an importance if you can healthily give yourself distance to focus on your own well-being.
