Youre allowed to be heartbroken.
You dont need to date someone to develop strong feelings for them.
Knowing that youre never going to be with this person is going to sting.

Youre allowed to cry your eyes out.
Youre allowed to mope about them to your friends.
Youre allowed to feel your feelings.
Dont let anyone convince you that youre overreacting or that your sadness is invalid.
It hurts to get rejected, no matter how close you were with this person.
Their opinion isnt a universal opinion.
Right now, you might not care what the rest of the world thinks.
You only care about what this person thinks and they arent interested.
While youre allowed to mourn your loss, you shouldnt fool yourself into believing that youre unlovable.
Just because one person isnt interested in a relationship doesnt mean the next person will feel the same way.
You are a catch.
There are going to be so many more chances for you to find love.
Dont give up on yourself because their opinion of you isnt theonlyopinion of you.
You shouldnt have to teach anyone how to treat you.
You might be tempted to continue chasing this person.
Your worth isnt tied to your relationship status.
Theres no guarantee that your friends in relationships are any happier than you are right now.
you’ve got the option to feel fulfilled without a relationship and empty with a relationship.
It all depends on the situation.
Remember, you dont want to force the wrong love.
If you eventually find someone who makes you happy, thats great.
If not, thats just as great.
Everyone gets rejected.
Think of the most talented, hysterical, beautiful, intelligent person youve ever met.
Now, remind yourself thattheyhave gotten rejected, too.
It happens to everyone.
It doesnt mean theres anything wrong with you.
It simply means you were chasing after the wrong person.
You should never feel ashamed of putting yourself out there.
Maybe you asked them out and got rejected.
Maybe you feel silly for imagining a future where the two of you are together.
But the truth is, you arent a fool for putting yourself out there.
Youre brave for speaking from your heart.
You should be proud of yourself for taking a risk.
Maybe it didnt pay off today, but it could next time.
Dont let one experience stop you from loving with your whole heart.
Youre doing the right thing by being honest with yourself and those around you.
Your vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness.
