Let's see maybe it's because of my age and how time works. I'm 21 years old and I posted a few months back that my ex and I had gotten back together. We were first together when we were 18 years old then two years passed by and we decided to try again. We are now 21. We are no longer together because well he has become some one different ..his words.
I know someone once told me that it is hard to date at this age because mainly we are trying to still figure out what to do and what we are. Plus, he said he didn't feel as strongly as I did which of course is a factore...the sad part about it all is that my feelings for him returned when we started to go out again...and I have found out they never went away. Now this is the part that kinda just gets at me because it's kind of sad to feel this way still and no one to affirm it or want it..espcially the person you want to have do this..(shrugs)
I don't know if these feeling will go away...and it's kinda crappy if they won't...
Will they ever? and is it true during our age which Im guessing aroun 20-25 it's hard to date because we are still trying to figure out what we want and are?

Thanks!

No, it's not hard to date at that age. Some people mature faster than others but you should be able to date and enjoy each other between 20-25. This is the prime age to date. You are finding about others and they about you and you can just have fun before you settle down with one person.

Now to your question. Yes it is hard when your love is not returned. The mistake you made was to start back with him. Your feelings did not go away and to be with him again just re-kindled them again. If he doesn't want a relationship you will have to accept it. You could try to be friends but I would advice against it. He will be OK with it but you will still want more. You need to break away and find a new interest.

You are not a loser. You just need someone who sees the specialness in you.
Hang in there and things will improve....
