It would be wrong to tell them you know how they feel because you don't know. You know how they might feel. That there is a possibility for it, and how that makes you feel.

I think if you bring it up and assure them you do not and will not attribute their forgotten actions to them it should be all right. Perhaps something like "when you were here last you did/said something and I would like some closure about it if you're willing to discuss it with me."

You can initiate the conversation via texting but it should be done face-to-face.

It will be difficult, but to leave it festering will only make things worse as time passes. Do not put it off, though do not rush yourself either. I would suggest no longer than a fortnight, as it gives some time to adjust. Any longer and there is higher risk of expectations being formed.

I've had a similar discussion with Hades, and while things are still difficult there is no lingering paranoia or worry. Neither of us will be caught off guard, and we are respectful of each other's feelings or lack thereof.

He does not love me. And it hurts, yes, but it would have hurt even more if I had gotten my hopes up. Now I have more time for these new wounds to mend.

These are only suggestions from my own perspective and experiences, but I hope some of what I've said can help you, Noct.

No matter what you decide to do, I will be here if you have any need of me.

ive got a lot of thinking to do, huh. business as usual, nothings ever easy

thanks for the offer tho, and the advice. it means a lot, whatever happens

and im sorry you didnt get the answer you wanted. i can kind of get how the closure might help eventually but in the moment? ugh

same offer goes for you, if u need anything

The most rewarding things are never easy.

The answer I received was the one I expected. That he offered me kindness and understanding was more than I could have hoped for.

Thanks, Noct.

any advice for handling the fallout? bc there is totally gonna be

for someone in your position

[The rejected party, that is... though the kindness and understanding is a given, he'll file it away still.]

Acknowledging the feelings but not dwelling upon them. I still enjoy spending time in his company, and that he has not dismissed me nor avoided me has been a great help. I enjoyed his companionship long before I developed feelings for him, so being able to simply spend time in his company as I did before is nice.

I can't make my love disappear and I can't make him love me. We're both aware of this, and we respect that without letting it become the focus of our interactions.

that's fair, yeah... i mean its not like how i feel about them has changed or anything like that, just

idk. like they came late to a party & the pizza's all eaten but ive got burgers. still food, still good, but if u got a craving for pizza it's not ideal, but it'd be nice if u still stayed for dinner??

fuck me thats a stupid metaphor

anyway pizza is love

Pizza is O.K.

I would say it is more like cake. It's like going to a party, looking forward to having a wonderful piece of cake, and then all that's left are cupcakes that don't even have any sprinkles.

Cupcakes are wonderful mini-cakes, but they aren't a nice, rich piece of cake with icing and sprinkles and layers of fresh fruit and crème.

They're still cupcakes though, which are far superior to something like pie.

i like all of those desserts lol that one totally doesn't work for me

eithers good tho

this is just making me hungry
