I Have a Broken Heart

My heart was broken in high school by a teacher, it hurts so much because I still love him.We didn't say or do anything, relationship wise but it was something about the way he had often looked at me that made me think he cared but maybe I was wrong.I may never know what those looks meant and the anticlimactic way it all ended just hurts so much.

That sounds like a crush on your teacher not love lmao and it would be fvcked up if he acted on it before you graduated

No, I know what a crush is, I had one on a teacher once, I don't think about him much anymore, at least I don't think about how much I care about his well being still and how I'd be willing to give my life for his.Thinking about it, all I think of for a moment is how fast he made my heart race and that I just thought he was attractive.

It's different with the phys ed teacher, he never made my heart race, I didn't spend any amount of time thinking he was attractive and I liked him.It was a later realization I actually cared for him andat one point, I think I had even seen his fiance and it made me mad and jealous inside, I couldnt explain why to myself at the time and was in denial, now I know why when it's too late.But I still hope the best for him and his family because of my love for him.I didn't want him to act on anything, I just wanted it all to end on good terms, it didn't, it was anticlimactic and I had the sense he hated me and/or didn't care about me, that's where the pain stems.

Then nevermind a label for it, I care about him and wish I could at least be one of his closest friends

It's not as bad as you're making it sound, it'll just always be with me.I do intend to continue to do things that will make me happy, otherwise.
