You have to, for the sake of your sanity, find a way to get her jealous. You've made yourself too readily available to her. I'm not telling you this just as a female, but as a fucking doormat that's been in your situation before. You need a better head on your shoulders. Maybe suffer a little bit, but don't dwell and move the fuck on, quickly (make her jealous). Make your congratulations and "I'm so happy for you'se" sound trite and by-the-book. Basically, like empty complements.
The bold and underlined above is wrong. Deal with it.Story goes back to around two years ago when I broke up with my girlfriend of 3 years. It was tough at first but I managed to get over it. Fast forward to around 1 year later, I started to get to know my ex's best friend from high school. (They now live in different countries, far away from each other, but they are still in contact, usual best friend relations)
Anyway the more we had conversations, I found out how much she's like myself, our personality and taste in everything is almost identical. I started to have very strong feelings for her, and told her about it, but she said she felt bad about it because my ex was her best friend and all. Although I could clearly see that she was also interested in me and she was holding back because of her friend.
I had hoped over time she would eventually get over it and we could be together. At the same time I tried to date other girls but It was useless since I'm too picky when it comes to girls (in terms of personality, not hotness, looks, etc). I ended up comparing everyone to her and result was not being interested in anyone, except her.
Around three months ago she got way more friendlier than before and we had more conversations and fun than ever. I knew she was the one, I felt extremely in love with her (I still do).
Until yesterday when she told she had a date with this guy who is also a mutual friend, she wanted to tell me about it herself, rather than I find out from someone else. I told her I was thankful that she did, then we talked about it for like 2 hours. But man, my world went upside down. It was a heavy blow. I've never felt like this before, even when I broke up with my ex.
And here I am, depressed as fuck. I'm going through hell right now... I'm having serious motivational problem and feel like my life is pointless. I'll go see the university counselor tomorrow, but I need something to keep me up till then.
You're depressed because a chick you like doesn't like you back? Krist dude, the entire male population is in depression then. Seriously. There's a dating thread, there's even a depression thread, though I don't think you belong in there because it just sounds like you're a lovesick puppy. Get over it.
hot girls have got problems too!
Have you told her how you feel?
Telling her how you feel and hearing from the horses mouth whether or not she is actually interested in you has to be better than just letting some other guy move in because you are too afraid of a knock back.
I know her telling you she's not interested is not what you want to hear and your instincts tell you to softly softly piss around in the hope she makes the first move but sometimes you have to grab life by the balls. There's nothing worse than losing a gal to another guy just because you were too scared to say anything. Her telling you she's not interested will also give you the closure you need because you'll always be wondering what if otherwise and that's a lot worse in the long run than a kick back.
no better way to make her jealous than new vagina...
Thanks Tashbrooke, will drop a pm if I felt worse.
As I said in the OP, I told her I loved her long ago, but at that time she said she felt bad because I was her best friend's ex. Then I told her again yesterday, and asked if she had feelings for me. She somehow dodged the question by saying she now feels bad that I'm sad and if I had done something similar she would shocked. But she would be happy if I'm happy.
I don't think I can do that, basically playing someone's emotion and basically I'm almost not interested in anyone else expect her.
I'm 22 btw, if anyone is concerned about my age.
I'm depressed because every single decision that I've made in my life, decisions that affect me, I have regretted. Every one, and I keep doing them daily. One of these days I'm just going to crack and I'm not looking forward to it yet I'm frozen in place staring at it like the headlights of a train inevitably approaching me because I can't fucking take control of my pathetic existence...
ARE YOU FUCKING ME ?
EVERY SINGLE MOTHER FUCKING ONE
Gotta agree with this...The bold and underlined above is wrong. Deal with it.
I've dated an ex's sister. I've dated an ex's best friend. Hell, I've had the best friend of my then current girlfriend make a very thinly veiled pass at me. If the girl is REALLY that into you she'll get it sorted with her friend.
If she's that in to you and you broke up with her friend two years ago there is NO WAY she's letting that stand in the way of her dating you.
Sounds to me like you're friend zoned to the extreme. She's at least nice enough and aware enough to recognize your interest and be polite about it, but that's all you are. This is probably partly a result of you being her "dick under glass" too, so you got that going for you. Give up any delusions that she reciprocates your feelings to the same degree and move on.
Corky, I know that feel bro.

As I said I managed one break up just fine when I was 19 and much younger, but this situation is something else. It hurts so bad cause I love her so much.
I'm planning to move to Germany in April to continue my masters. She said she wanted to move there too once she graduated. And she was/is serious about it. Not sure what the hell should I do with my life from this point.

most guys who write/feel stuff like this are doomed, I say, doooooomed to end up with some girl who will be with them for the better part of their adult lives. So don't worry. It feels like hell shit now, and it will for a little while, but like they say "some day you will look back longingly on these days"
In the meantime, enjoy your 22-ness because some chick out there has got your number and perhaps neither of you know it at this moment, but she is gunning for you, and every day from this point forth you will inch ever closer to that day when your horrible, horrible freedom is revoked.. permanently
