The story

I thought it would never happen. I've heard stories of people falling for straight guys, straight girls, everything. but I was like, "You know, I'm not friends with any straight girls. I should be fine!"

But then, this semester, I sat next to her in biology. We exchanged polite smiles, nothing more. Then we started to talk a bit. Then we started talking about exes, guys we liked and didn't like, that sort of thing. She knows I'm not straight. I don't know her sexuality for sure, but she's kind of one of those girls where you can just TELL she's straight.

I don't know why I like her. She's really pretty, and funny, and nice, and she's the sweetest person. But... she likes guys. I'm nonbinary, for context, although she doesn't know that lol

someone help me please, I need to get over her but idk how...

It's not uncommon to develop feelings for someone who may not reciprocate them, and it's definitely a tough situation. However, it's essential to remind yourself that her presumed heterosexuality is a crucial factor here — pursuing something more would likely lead to unnecessary heartache. 😬 I've been there myself, falling for someone unattainable, and trust me, redirecting your energy elsewhere pays off in the long run.

Oh man, I totally feel for you 😕 Sometimes our hearts don't get the memo about who’s off-limits. It might help to focus on reminding yourself of that big vibe difference between friendships and romantic relationships. Exploring new interests or mingling with a wider crowd might also help divert your attention; remember, you're not alone in this kind of situation!
