Tx. It's nice to know I'm not alone. Life is hard enough as it is for us to have to deal with these unstable emotions too. However it will get better in time, I believe strongly. We dated for 3yrs+ too. We tried again several times but it always went south with a big fight. We stayed friends too but never had to see each other. Now I was for his family as a contractor on contract, so I see him every week & realizing his feelings are dead it's killing me slowly everytime I see him or know that he's around. Cause now he disapears whenever he knows I'm around. It hurts cause my feelings are still clear as day. He tries to avoid crossing my path every chance he gets and we were just great friends until I expressed my still existing emotions towards him. Good to know I'm not alone, but I don't like the idea of anyone else going through this, cause it's too much to handle.
