and the worst part is no one cares. when i try writing/talking to friends about it they say stuff like "go out and find someone better" (as if i'm not trying), or just change the subject. so here i am writing about it to internet strangers who probably don't really care either. because keeping these thoughts in my head/in my icloud notes/in my diary notebook feels like it's Just Not Enough

everyone i've tried dating since, or having sex with since, i compared to him. probably the best sex i've had so far; and i've seen him on grindr again since, so i know he'd probably be open to doing it again! but i suspect it'll just hurt me even more if i go back to that
