It doesnt matter how he hurt you or whether or not hemeantto hurt you.
All that matters is that it happened.
Your heart is shattered.

Your hopes are gone.
You dont have tobe the bigger personortake the high road.
He had no obligation to date you and you have no obligation to stay his friend.
Because you cant stand the thought ofjustbeing a friend when you were initially looking for so much more.
Of course, doing this wont be easy.
It wont be easy to leave him in your past when you once dreamed about creating a future together.

He might call you selfish and bitchy and fake.
Even your friends might tell you that youre overreacting, that rejection is not worth losing his friendship over.
But youre the only one who knows what you’re able to and cannot handle.
Youre the one who knows which situations are healthy and which are toxic.
At least for now.
You are allowed to get over him in any way that your heart needs.
You are allowed to admit that you dont want to be in his life halfway.
That its either all of nothing.
That hes either your boyfriend or a stranger.
You have to respect his decision not to date you.
