I had a crush on one of my guy friends for a really long time. After two years of friendship, he finally asked me out over the summer! I was so excited. We had been going out even though I was visiting another state. It was tough, but I thought we had really made it work. Two weeks in to school, he broke up with me. It was completely unexpected. He didn't give me any reason other than that he wanted to be single during school, aka I was only a summer fling with the title of girlfriend. I was so sad and angry that I didn't talk to him ever again. Not only did he break my heart, he also lost my friendship.
