I Pretend I'm Okay

I just found out an old best friend of mine just moved to the city I live in. He lived 9 hours away and moved literally right next to me and didn't even tell me. We've been friends for years, we even talked about dating and how we wished there wasn't any distance, that he would move here if he could.... then he met this girl and he moved up here with her and I had to find out through a mutual friend. I'm a little sad because I thought our friendship was stronger than that.

I'm not going to say anything because that's just how I am as a person, shit hurts me and I just smile and nod and act like nothing is wrong.

I don't know, tonight is really lame and everyone that is talking to me isn't helping and all I want is for someone to talk to. It's this ugly ugly thing I have because of my avoidant personality disorder. I'm incredibly lonely but push everyone away.

Also I can't see. I'm blind (not really but it feels like it) I need to get glasses, everything is blurry.

Maybe because you had talked of dating, when he moved there with her, he felt a bit awkward?

Honestly I wondered about this. But I was very supportive of his relationship with her and wouldn't ever put him in any weird situation, to be fair the majority of our friendship we were both in relationships so I'm just a little confused and sad. The area that I live in I don't have any best friends or family so it's the best feeling knowing he's close but also the worst because he didn't even tell me and now I'm too scared to even ask to see him.
Just a thought, but maybe the girl he is having a relationship with doesn't want him to see you? Perhaps thinking there might be a spark?

@VeronicaJane: No clue. I hope that's not the case.
I know, but sometimes it is. Hard to say though. Best wishes.
