I've thought about you a great bit today (it was completely inevitable given my surroundings).
Around my ever-so-encouraging friends I pretend to find your existence irksome and painful- I pretend that you've become a burden for me to handle. I pretend to be angry at you and I pretend to want to scream at you for everything you've done to me (nothing- which is precisely why I'm perturbed). I even start believing it at times, but it's Not True. I could never be angry at you, I'm just...sad.

Sad that we never talk. Sad that we never see each other. Sad that everything kind of fell apart. Sad that I act distant. Sad that you've distanced yourself. Sad that you have no initiative and sad that I haven't said anything to you about it. The only way to take my mind off of this sadness is to act hateful because anger blinds.

I'm also sad that I'm too sheepish to say this to your face, so I have to post it on Tangst.

If you never see the guy and he obviously doesn't care for you why harbor a grudge, why act all angry for no reason? Just forget about him.

sucks when things go akward and distant in relationships. (friends or otherwise)

OP, i know you and i understand the feeling. it happened to me once. you don't have to pretend to be mad, and i hope you can sort this out before the end of school. i know if it doesn't you'll be sad all summer, and i don't want that to happen to you.

well, it sounds like what happened was your fault. you said u distanced urself. i guess if u want things to change you really do need to be open with this person and tell them what you think

This sounds almost like my situation...

The optimal option is to: Forgive and Forget. Is this a relationship that is worth salvaging? Do you feel like taking the intiative to scrape up the remains of whatever you two once had (since apparently the other person won't)? Can you look past whatever split you two apart? And then somehow establish a connection before its too late?

Is it worth it to you?

If so, then you know what is right. Tell him/her how you feel. Tell him/her that you're sad. Try to make things better and, if it doesn't work, then it's not anyone's fault.
