Hey all, I actually commented on another sad cringe post and got a decent amount of upvotes so I thought I’d tell it properly.

4 times I’ve been in pretty sad situations all involve trying to tell a girl I like her. The first was during my college years, where I was crushing hard on a girl and she when I went to try and be her friend she began to tell me about all the other potential dudes she’d love to be with. I guess just a typical friend zone story. The kicker was, she realised I liked her but she kept sending me videos of her making out with another dude from my class ? Wasn’t sure why but she’s always blow up my phone with her and other dudes. This was one of my first crushes so I didn’t block her even though I should have. It hurt

The second time, I Eventually met someone in my university course who was really nice and there was a small spark. I thought I had a chance this time, and was gonna make my move at the club one night. I invited my best friend ( at the time) over and fed them,let them stay with me ect so they could come too! We went out together and met up with the girl and her friends and the night went on. The stinger is, I went to buy them drinks and I came back to them making out on the stairs. ( the girl knew I liked her and so did my friend ). I didn’t have much to say so they held hands and went back to her apartment. I just went home and waited for them to finish fckin so I could give my friend his things and send him away.

At this point my hearts sensitive

The third time , was 2 years later I met a dude and this girl in class. ( in hindsight I should have read the room better). They seem decent friends but I had known the girl prior and we’d got to talking on account of our shared interest in gym. We spent all summer together. This time I thought to myself, il tell her at sunset since our chemistry seemed good . I also brought her a baby yoda plush and hid it behind a tree. I managed to get a picnic set up on the park hills and I open my mouth to tell her -. She cuts me off by saying “can I tell you a secret ? I’ve been hooking up with (previously mentioned friend ) for months and it’s great.” At that point I just resigned myself and still surprised her with the toy but eventually went home.

Finally, the only relationship I’ve ever had failed hard because ( while I was younger ) my mum used to take my phone from me and search it for evidence that I spoke to girls. Asian household so that’s a big no no. This also led to her stopping me from going to sixthform(college) so I couldn’t go to my classes and see her. Eventually this ruined my relationship, I was too emotionally stunted to actually be a good partner .

Now days I’ve fully withdrawn from most of my small circle of friends. I just about work, go gym a couple times a week and watching gaming retrospectives. The loneliness never hurt as much but some of my cousins have been getting married young and my culture and family ( plus my own insecurities) are making me feel like Sh*t.

TLDR: wanted to share some sad cringe stories, basically always get the short end of the stick. Constant rejection and a combination of bad environments lead to heartbreak.

Hey dude, Just wanted to say you seem like a really nice guy, and don't let all of the things that happened break your heart, because, in my opinion, they weren't the right people for you. You're better off without those kinda people. I've been through almost the exact same things, and I know how much it can hurt. But hey, don't worry, you'll find someone that'll treat you much much better than any of those people would have done. Keep your head up, and stay strong! Take care 💙

I understand man. After having to go through that many experiences, anyone would feel the same way. A part of me still thinks that way too. But whatever happens, don't lose value in yourself. Always remember your self worth. All those people who broke your heart in the past, they didn't do it because you weren't a good person, they did it because they weren't good people or they just didn't see how good of a person you were. But that doesn't mean the next person won't.
Life is strange. You never know what tomorrow can bring, or who you might meet. So don't give up. It's okay to feel like you shouldn't open your heart to anyone after what you've been through, and to be scared that the next time you love someone, that they'll do the same thing everyone else did, but trust me, one day you'll meet someone that'll see how much of a good person you are, and treat you better than anyone ever did.
Stay strong!
