I don't believe that anybody feels the way I do about you now

What's wrong with me?

Am I just naive? Am I stupid? Am I just some pathetic, foolish, hopeless romantic? Why do I do this to myself? Why do I torture myself so? Why do I allow myself to be in this position?

I mean, honestly! It's ridiculous! How can I possibly expect this to end? What other possible way could it end? What, am I just going to one

Ehh, irony is a bitch. Worst one was when the guy I like was dancing with his girlfriend, and turned and looked at me and smiled when frickin' "Mr Brightside" came on, as if it was our song or something. Well, it's certainly my bloody song e_e.

I don't believe there's only one person that people can be happy with. There's hundreds, everywhere... just takes the right little spark to set it in motion

:3 You can do it. Chin up.

Please don't give up. Not entirely, anyway. I'm not saying you should pine on for her for eternity and never move on, but don't just give up on your feelings and consign yourself to never achieving them. That would just basically kill everything that makes you so overwhelmingly Buddy. You're the guy that clings to that shard of hope irrespective of how tiny it is and I don't want to know you any other way, 'kay?

Just keep on keeping on as you have been. :) Keep stoking those thoughts and emotions somewhere in the back of your mind. 1,000 miles isn't so far enough not to.

What, am I just going to one day give up my life, drop out of college, quit my job, withdraw my life savings and close out my bank account, throw some clothes in a suitcase, and drive 1,000 miles away to be with some girl I've never even met face-to-face?

You know, one day - after you graduate college, probably, and start looking for a career rather than just another job - you will be more mobile than you are now. So will she. If you still feel the same way about each other then, and are willing to take some risks (and really, if years later you still feel this way about each other, you damn well BETTER be willing to take some risks, because that's something that doesn't come along all that often), you can find a way to make it work.

I'm not saying it will happen. A lot of things can change in four years. I'm just saying it's not as utterly hopeless as you seem to think it is.

What Ember said. When it comes down to finding a job after graduation, you can pretty much go anywhere you want to... and if you still think she's worth it, you can.

*hugs* And no, Bude, I don't think you're being dumb or emo or anything. I mean, you said this to me once when I was being emo, and I'm going to quote it right back at you. You're human. Feeling unhappy because of these things, or hoping for something, isn't at all naive and immature. And like all the comments pictured, you have a whole bunch of people who care about you enough not to care if you're being immature or not. <3 <3
