I'll try my best to get straight to the point aha. (This is pretty long. Sorry!)

*Skip to the very bottom if you don't want to read*

About a year ago I met this guy at my school.(Lets call him Jake) Apparently we were both into PC games. At the time, I never seriously liked anyone. Just a few minor crushes here and there. (You can probably see where this is going.) I didn't expect much out of him, seeing that the only game I knew he played was Minecraft. Anyway, he asked for some of my social media and Skype and we decided to play after school.

So yeah. We played a minigame and he was surprisingly decent. As time went by, we talked more and I started to develop a small crush on him. Like I said, trying to get straight to the point so I'm going to cut off a lot of details.

He was pretty well-known around school. I was really close to his cousin (Lets call her Ann), who he lived with.

I know its pathetic, but sometimes I would walk home with Ann just so I could maybe get a chance to talk to Jake.

Fast Forward, we stopped talking at some point. I recalled him saying he was really into League of Legends and again, pretty pathetically, decided to pick it up for attention.

Jake started talking to me a little more. He spent a night explaining the basics of the game and I guess I started to get my hopes up again.

He decided to introduce 2 of his friends to me. One of them being a pretty cool laid back guy, and the other....

being his girlfriend.

but damn. I can't even be jealous or anything because his girlfriend is honestly the nicest and coolest person I have ever met. She has a really pretty voice (since we've talked in a call before) but lives in a different state. She's amazing.

I would talk to them now and then, and I kind of tried backing off of Jake. I just didn't want to hurt anyone-- or myself.

I began playing League.

Jake was much better than me (and still is ha) so he never really invited me to play w/ him. Instead, I played w/ some of my online friends.

This year, things have slightly changed.
After not talking to Jake all summer, we begin talking a little more.

He put his arm around me a few times. Sometimes he'd steal by things to have me chase after him. At one point, I went to his house (because of Ann, since we were close) and he put both of his hands on my shoulder to talk face to face-- and did that again once at school.

I start to realize how desperate I am to talk to him.

Okay. I know. I need to back off. He has a girlfriend. I'm just keeping my hopes up.

He asks to play now and then, but I decline since I still have a lot to learn about the game. I told him I would play w/ him once I hit the max level.

(I also found out that he was moving this year)

A few weeks ago, he asked for my phone to call someone, and yup. Being the smooth guy he is, called his own number and grinned. I have his number sitting in my phone now.


Very recently, he came up to me after school. (He has been doing this quite a bit) I guess I was pretty annoyed because I was trying to get over all the pointless feelings and ended up snapping. "WHAT DO YOU WANT."

He looked at me sadly and later apologized via text for being annoying and wanted to admit he was before he moved.

I felt pretty terrible.

Jeez. I talk to him normally now and then. Spent an hour explaining stuff for Science one night. He pretty much only asks for homework now.

I'm going to his house again in two days for his cousin. I just don't know what to do anymore. It's like I'm obsessed with him, honestly. Its difficult to explain since I'm trying to keep this short but hey-- I'll get to the point.

Say you like someone, but they're in a relationship. You like the person they're dating and wouldn't want to hurt them. You keep getting signs that the person likes you but you can't be sure. They're moving in 2 months. What do you do?

I would suggest, if you can, try not to even think about crushing on them. Talk like normal friends, think like you're friends. I have recently been in a fight with a friend, so I've had it hard on me. Think of them as a friend, but don't pressure yourself about it. Pressuring yourself with this will make it worse, trust me, I've kinda been in your situation. You may do stuff like what he does to you, but I do that with my friend that's a guy so it's fine. If you feel like you can't do this, then try talking it out online or in person (I suggest in person to face it better). And when he leaves, keep in contact.

I really hoped I helped, sorry if I didn't help.

@Hisa

Thank you. I think it would be easier if I released all the tension and just acted normally. I dunno. I could try that. I mean it's what I've been trying to do the last few months. The more I think about it, the more stressed I get. I'll try to calm down a little. It really shouldn't be that big of a deal. Thanks again (:

I can't give any advice, because I didn't read it and skipped to the end, but I love this post. The picture gets straight to the point, and you even warn people about the long story and say "Skip to the very bottom if you don't want to read".

@NZPIEFACE

Thank you (:

Man what a story, I gotta say I feel for you but I'm sure you know the right thing to do let it go. Pursuing the relationship will most likely get you hurt or if he likes you back, you'll probably hurt his girlfriend.

Since it seems like you guys are on bad terms maybe you can apologise for snapping at him that one time (if you haven't already) to try and patch things up. There's a chance he might leave his girlfriend but personally I think you should prepare yourself for the worst or you'll be heartbroken.

Good luck with everything hopefully I was of some help, too bad I cant help you at league I dont play on NA :D

I feel you seriously. I'm going through the same thing with a girl i met in my class. i know how hard it is to let go but it is for the best. And it will hurt for a while...
and your heart is still gonna skip a beat when you hear his voice, and you still gonna try stupid excuses to talk to him, and the whole world is still going to stop when you look into his eyes or her him laugh but in time it will heal and you'll be happy again.

if i was in your situation i would just be open about it hell if he is moving soon then what do you have to lose just try to make sure that its a private conversation like a "what happens in vegas stays in vegas" thing

@Hawkstar59

I apologized. I tried to make it clearly that he was NOT annoying to me at all! I'm assuming that he thought I was just being nice and decided to distance himself more. He's on and off. I just don't know anymore aha.

I'd rather the two be happy. I think the only way really out of this is to just keep my feelings in and wait for them to disappear

@Nox

It's difficult, right?

I try to stop. I decide to stop... and just when I feel like I'm finally over it, he appears again. Gahh

@" "

I'm so shy man. I'd rather keep the things the way they were then tell. When he moves, we'll still be able to play games and stuff but If I tell him and he rejects me, it's over.
