It is what it is. This mehr ain't finna pay itself 🌚

Lol take it easy sis. It seemed like you were really into that guy. Just make sure you give yourself time to process your feeling and learn from your mistakes. Otherwise you’ll keep repeating the same mistakes and finding yourself with the same outcomes.

Idk how to describe this. I can't and won't ever be with my crush. I know that. Sometimes I get overwhelmed and have feelings for him again. But I mostly pray it away and focus on other things and only have feelings for him in cycles. Because of my current situation I feel that marriage is a necessity and I definitely am ready to make that transition.

Lordy, marriage is not a fix for getting over someone! Now of all times marriage is *not* a necessity and no you’re clearly *not* ready for it! Because you’re clearly hung up on a whole different guy. If you rush this, it is likely you will eventually feel like you settled or jumped to a quick fix. In the long run this will lead to dissatisfaction and resentment in your r’ship/marriage. Do not drag this man ( and maybe even kids) into your mess.

What would you do if your crush had a sudden change of heart and wanted to be with you?

I'm not aiming to get married to "get over" someone. I said i have personal reasons for it and the merit far outweighs the cons. And at any rate I will never be with my crush, that won't change any day at any time. I have very short intervals where I miss him but most of the time I'm able to not think about him. I went a few months without caring until I just so happened to see him in person which caused the rant post.

I wouldn't accept it. He's not Muslim so that's not even an option.

I think about this dude a few weeks out of the year :abuxyga: and I honestly haven't thought about him since after that post when I did a bit of praying and reflection and soon met Mr. Green Vegetables

I am happy for you but I just don’t want you to feel like you need to settle because you can’t be with your crush. There is no need to rush, give your head a few months to breathe and get over the other guy. Inshallah, it all works out for you!

Its been over a year. I haven't spoken to him in over a year. I saw him for the first time since before quarantine started last month when he was walking down the street and that just made me reflect on when we were friends. I'm unpacking it more and that era was very traumatic for me and I was hurt and confused and he was so kind to me. I mean it when I say no one has ever been kind to me in that way. I wasn't even physically attracted to him when we knew each other lol. Just one day he entered my life and here he was so friendly and understanding. If he pitied me or thought I was crazy he didn't let on. He just kept me company sometimes. Here I am ranting on anonymous forum again lol o_O When my PTSD was really bad I had insomnia. I would go on runs at 3 am and he would ask me if I was OK and tell me to go back in lol. We would buy each other food and cook or just chill. He drove me places so I didn't have to walk. I want no reminders of that time period in my life so I disassociate from it but I occasionally do think about how much his support comforted me.
 
Find out how he views women. Ask him who his female role models are or which women he admires- you will notice what kinda traits he admires in a woman which will be the same he wants in you. Finances- as in does he want you to pay the bills. Family- find out what you can about his family. Finances and family are the two things that pose problems. Here is a list of more things to ask
