In 6th grade I was very popular, like. VERY, and I had this somewhat of a crush on my girl best friend (I am a boy) All throughout middle school I could never confess to her because Best friends into lovers never work out. Plus she dated lots of guys at our school to, she always came to me with relationship advice, or even cried in my arms when she was heartbroken by another guy, and it hurt me, that I never had that chance with her, that i could never be that guy to fill her heart with love, rather than tear it away, as middle school came to an end, I dropped and cut off many friends, because I found out they were fake, slowly it got to the point where we basically had to pick a side, she had friends I didn't like and I had friends she didn't like, and instead of choosing a side... I chose her. I dropped everyone and maybe only talked to 3 people, because I wanted her... but in the end, she slowly drifted away, throughout high school when the pandemic happened from covid, we had lots of free time, so we hung out every so often, and she had this "attachment issue" with only me where she would hug me the entire time we hung out no matter who we were with she was always holding on to me, and when she looked up at me, I felt a connection in our eye contact, but I highly doubted she actually liked me... so I tried to not think anything of it. But now we're in 10th grade, and I haven't spoke to her in forever. Everytime I try to talk to her she responds either with "K" "No" some short message or doesn't respond at all... I sit and question everyday what could've happened if I just told her how I feel, even if I was rejected in wouldn't have mattered because in the end, we drifted apart anyway, and I don't know what to do
