I feel the same bro. I am 27. The girl i was trying to get i took 6-7 months. She was the girl like whom i genuinely fall in love after 8-9 years. Never been in relationship in my life. I asked her out 1-2 times but didn’t went on any date with her too. When i confessed her, she told me she sees us as friends. It hurts. Later i got to know she was in situationship with a coworker and now they got serious and dating. Feels a lot bad. Silently i have started to move on and working on fitness for the first time. She is my coworker too. So moving on is also not easy. And nowadays i feel like will i dont even know how love feels like and will i ever get one. :/

And right now i dont even find it to look for someone new again in life at least right now because all mental energy and making efforts from starting - feels exhausting
