What's the old Charlie Brown quote- nothing takes the taste out of peanut butter like the bitter taste of unrequited love? Truth.
I don't think I'll ever get over mine. In my heart of hearts I hope we cross paths again some day.

I agree with this. A room in your head where you put in all your thoughts and feelings for him and close the door. Open as you wish but only consciously.
People don't fall in love all the time and love means all sorts of different things. You loved him. Accept it and let it be.

Read Love and Limerance. It's not uncommon. Besides time and trying less contact. Perhaps short-term anti-depressants of some sort to control the intrusive thinking. This has happened to me before.

keep this image emblazoned in your mind and think of it every time you see him.
you're welcome.
Man here, I have never understood this. While I get that a man/woman ill with the runs isn't sexy, does it really make someone universally and permanently unattractive?
What I don't understand is why OP is expected to clean up them sh*tty shorts!? The man has no hands?
For someone you fit with and love, helping them out when their body fails them is an honor.
Yeah. No. Not, unless he's quadraplegic.
