Klaudija Asked:
“in year 5 i started a new school and i began to like the most popular guy in my year, and i was the least popular girl in my year. half way through year 5 he found out and asked me out and i said yes and we were going out for a year and a half and i think i fell in love. during the time we were going out he cheated on me once but i forgave him, then at the end of year 6 he dumped me and i was devastated. i don’t remember much but by then i had some friends (whereas before i didn’t have any) and they say that they remember it and that i was crying my eyes out and that a teacher shouted at the guy: “look at that poor little girl, how can you live with yourself after seeing that?!”.
now i am in year 9 and i still like him. i don’t know if it is love but i just don’t seem to be able to give him up. when we broke up we didn’t talk at all until just recently (we don’t talk much but at least it’s more than nothing) and i am scared to tell him that i like him just in case we stop talking again.
i know you probably think i am some stupid little girl talking about love or whatever but i just really don’t know what to do anymore. i don’t want to like him but i just do.
please tell me what to do, or maybe not do.
thank you very much.”

Dear Klaudija,
As someone who was once a teenage girl, I know how you feel. Every feeling is so STRONG. Every hurt is devastating. Every warm feeling is love. And being young does not make your feelings any less real.
Just because you are young does not mean you are not truly feeling, it just means you have not yet learned how to deal with those feelings.
Sometimes for the sake of protecting your feelings you need to pretend that you’re over someone. Eventually, you will actually be over him, I promise you. Until you are, pretend like you are. Acting as if you no longer like him will eventually become second nature, and before you know it you won’t be acting at all.
It will be difficult, but then you will know you can make it through heartbreak stronger and smarter for the experience. You will be fine, I promise.
Sincerely,
Suzanne White Montiel
