I'm Pathetic...need advice (sorry, kind of long)

I like this guy that I've known since I was seven. We grew up in the same church, and we were always really good friends. He used to ask me out all of the time when we were young but I denied him. We moved from the church about five years ago, and I hadn't seen him since. Recently we met up again, unexpectedly at drivers ed. We exchanged phone numbers and email addresses and have been talking since. We go to different schools. For a while it seemed like he was going out of his way to call me and spend time with me, and now he is really busy. He asked me out a few weeks ago, but broke up with me five days later because he said he didn't think it would work out. He said we would never see each other because he is going to be really busy in the summer. I am getting my license really soon, so I will have the freedom to meet him places or pick him up when he has the time. I think I am in love with this guy, but I don't think he has any feelings for me anymore. I think if two people liked each other enough they would make time for each other. I really don't want to forget him and move on, but I can't keep feeling like this. Has anyone been in the same situation or have any advice for me?

Yup...you're right...PATHETIC.

Thanks...for making me feel even worse about my situation. Obviously you guys don't know what love is, or you might understand. Lol, of course..love is the most pathetic feeling in the world, and I am the queen of One way love. I already stated that I was pathetic, and that he didn't like me...I don't need you to rub it in. I asked for advice, not criticism. I guess I asked for it by posting my topic here. You are welcome to your opinions and I know I asked for them, but please keep the bad ones to yourself. ANYONE that can shine some light on my situation would be so much appreciated at this time....

You asked for advice not GOOD ADVICE. Be more specific next time. And I do know what love is...love received from both ends. It is beautiful. You are only 16 you have a whole life to live....just be patient. I know it isn't a light but I did my best.

Have a good day/night!

Thank you, and sorry if I sounded rude. The problem is that he told me he likes me. I think it is something beyond schools. My mom thinks it is a church problem. Our old church (his church) believes that if you leave the church (whether you are going to a new one or not) you are worshipping the devil or something like that. I know he doesn't believe that, but I think people at his church were giving him a hard time about it. It's just been hard on my end because I am always falling for the people that don't like me...and then when I move on...sometimes they start liking me. Idk, I'm just confused.

Well...the fact that you too met up again after such a long time means something is supposed to happen between you. Maybe this guy is scared or is afraid you don't have the same feeling for him as he has for you. Talk to him. Ask him why he thinks it wouldn't workout. Tell him that you think people if 2 ppl love eachother they make time for eachother. That is a statement i could not agree more on. If people love eachother enough they will make time for eachother. Tell him he's worth waiting until summer is over to see him. And explain to him that u will be getting ur license soon and so you can meet him. Don't give up...i have a good feeling about you 2. good luck!

Thanks! Everything you said is stuff I've thought about. I do think we met up for a reason, and i told him that. He said he thinks about that a lot too. Thanks again!
