When I was 16, this guy that wanted me to be his girlfriend asked if he wanted a serious relationship with me. I rejected him several times. I told him that it's better that we are better off as friends. This happened when I was only 16. I am 20 now. I wasn't ready to have a relationship at 16. I realized now that if I didn't reject him, my life would be very different and if we were still together I probably would get engaged to him and having children with him by now. I realized now that he's the one for me out of all the guys that I dated in the past two years and now I can't get him back because he has totally moved on and is in a new relationship. How can I deal with this?

I don't think you're painting a true picture of this.

 

He seems to have something you want so, the issue is not him - it's what's lacking in you? It does not stand to reason that this one guy out of the whole wide world is so special or unique - save for the fact that YOU have chosen to make him so.

 

Do not obsess over this. Work on completing YOU instead of looking for completion in someone else. The right ONE will turn up eventually, don't panic. If you admire him so much then live by his example and move on.

It's hard when you feel like you missed your opportunity with someone. I was in a similar situation where I really liked this guy, and we would have been perfect for each other but it didn't happen. For the next few years I would always think about him and thought he was "the one" for me. And then I met someone else, and I totally forgot about that guy who I thought was "the one."

My point is- Sometimes you just think you're meant to be with the last person you had a real "crush" on, but that's just because you haven't felt the same way with anyone else yet.

Just keep waiting for the right person for you :)
