Rejection

Ok but does rejection ever hit you like this? 

This happened a long time ago when this guy liked and he was really nice and sweet but I already had planned to ask someone out so I politely rejected him but felt really bad and ended up crying about it cause I know how it feels to be rejected but my friend saw it as I was to scared to commit to a relationship with the guy. A while later I had got with my boyfriend and I had went on a beach day with friends. I found out that boy found a girl and was really happy, I was happy to. So we were walking and talking when the same friend went "you two would be so cute if you two weren't in relationships." And I got this weird feeling in my chest and stomach and I could tell he did too. Also later we went walking alone talking about how our relationships were going, both taking about how we both thought we found the one. When we got back it was the same friend asking if we were making out and the feeling came back, that sickening feeling. He was just a friend I rejected that doesn't mean we have to be romantic with each other just because he liked me, love dies off when there's nothing holding onto it but my friend wanted so desperately to matchmaker but he just made both of us uncomfortable.

We still talk sometimes, and we're really good friends im really happy he found someone who loves him.

But note to people, not all love is going to work out, it takes time and connection so don't rush people into it if they don't want it :)
