Today, you've been a stranger for three years. I've tried everything from running away to seeking counseling, from drinking whiskey to just spending time with good friends. Despite my attempts to move forward and be happy, a day hasn't gone by in three years that I haven't missed you. I feel pathetic and foolish and worthless. I'm disgusted with myself for admitting this, but I still love you. MMT

This hits too close to home not to respond. If you are who I think you are, reach out to me anyway. 3 years is a long time, and more has changed than you might think. If this is someone else who's just in an uncanny similar situation, I apologize for any added grief this might cause you. I've been fighting for her everyday, and it'd be a real miracle if this is where the healing starts.

I'm sorry to say that I'm not who you think I am. But maybe that's okay. Sometimes, it's just nice knowing that there's someone out there who feels the same as you. Sometimes, that's all you can ask for. But it also gives me some kind of hope to know that this happened to someone else, and the other person still wants them.

I had to create an account just to respond to this. It's been almost two years and I feel pathetic how I sometimes still cry myself to sleep over someone who meant the world to me. I know he doesn't feel the same way, but after all this time of praying and trying to distract myself in hopes of forgetting him and truly being happy, I constantly live my life as if I'm gonna go back home that night and telling him all that happened for that day...like we used to. I want to stop loving him. Hopefully one day I will.
