...graduating emailed, why? I was infatuated with my guidance counselor since I was 15 year old sophomore and he 26. Over the course of my school career we became like buddies and were very close. By senior year, I felt madly in love with him and was convinced it was reciprocated. I still believe he at least enjoyed my affections. Mid-way through my senior year, he got engaged to a woman he had met only 9 months before and I was devastated. I felt like someone had broken my spirit and my heart at a tender age of 17. I spent my second semester depressed and crying in my best friend's (god bless her) arms. After graduating I sent him a letter thanking him for everything he ever did for me, confessing about my "teenage romance with him i had in my head", apologizing if it made him comfortable, wishing him a happy marriage and life, and telling him, "I know you aren't in love with your job because you wanted to make a real difference but if it helps, you made one in my life and I'm not just saying that"; because he did, I am an freshman at Columbia University today!
In order to begin my new life at college and forget my "first love" I didn't go back to visit, didn't e-mail him, lost all contact. Today after 5 months (when I'm almost there) he mails me from his iphone asking me about my life, and pretending like nothing ever happened, like we can be buddies now. WHY is he being so inconsiderate? Does he not realize that his presence makes me ache and I'm trying to forget him?
PS: He got married this summer and is probably happy.
