Re: I still like him, but he's dating her - April 24th 2017, 09:49 PM

Hey there, Bianca!

I'm sorry to hear that this happened.

It sounds like Caleb cares a lot about you. He stuck around and helped you for quite a few months, and not many people will stick around that long if they genuinely don't care. Even more so, he sounds like a gentleman by letting you know that you could tell him right away if he made you uncomfortable. It seems like he cared a lot about you and that has me puzzled as to why he broke up with you.

Maybe he had a difficult time establishing whether or not he liked you romantically or just as a friend? Sometimes we mistake friendship for romantic love. But it's hurtful to learn he broke up with you through a text because he at least owed you a talk/explanation in person. Have you thought about asking him why he broke up with you? You deserve an explanation especially since it impacted you a lot. Finding out exactly why he broke up with you could provide you with closure and help you move on.

As for your friends, can you talk to them and let them know it's upsetting when they make fun of you? Make it clear that the situation is already hurtful enough, and you'd appreciate if they would refrain from making fun of you. I am wondering if you have any support from your friends, or elsewhere in your life; people you can talk to about this? This break up is really hard on you it seems, and you shouldn't have to go through it alone.

In the meantime, focus on yourself. Try out new hobbies, start a daily exercise routine, branch out at school and talk to new people etc. Explore different activities and try new things, and most importantly - take care of yourself and be kind to yourself. Pamper yourself if possible! Binge-watch a TV series with your favorite snack, have a bubble bath and so on.

You're welcome to message me if you need anything, Bianca. Stay strong and hang in there. You've got this, girl!
