A guy I liked proposed to his girlfriend.

I’m 24 year old female, and I’ve had a small crush on this 27 year old guy. We both attend the same program in university.

I thought he liked me too cause he was constantly staring at me. Once I stumbled upon him in the mall, he was nice, and my mom was like “he’s totally into you!”.

But months went by, he didn’t talk to me, didn’t help me, didn’t flatter my artwork lol I did, didn’t try to befriend me. Unfortunately he befriended the most vile mean girls of our class.

So I realized he’s not my type if he enjoys the company of such rude, selfish, arrogant girls who bullied me. It was a letdown cause other guys in my past connected with mean girls and excluded me.

This was in 2023.

Fast forward to now. I discovered last week he proposed to his girlfriend. It hurts that he never even wanted to try with me.

He didn’t want to get to know me. Just stared at me like a freak from afar. I’ve been single a lot of time. So it just hurts that neither he nor anyone else I know tried to get to know me.

I consider myself to be a nice and kind and caring person. Yet no one seems to value that.

I’ve been very alone and dealing with many difficulties, like poverty, no job, no friends, no savings, an unsupportive father, being the daughter of a single mom and living in an old house with many issues, no couch and a broken kitchen.

I used to be optimistic and used to have a strong faith. Now after years of struggle I’m just broken cause nothing good ever seems to happen to me.
