Well, I totally understand that you need to give missionaries some time after they get home to adjust to normal life again. Its been close to a week and he posts on Instagram, but won't reply to my Instagram DM (direct message). My mutual "friend" (i use the finger air quotes because I do not think she has the best intentions of being my friend. She wants to tear him an I apart as friends) with him and I were talking and she said "Oh yeah, we've been messaging but he is taking it slow." And I totally get that, but then she said "Maybe you should just forget him." She literally said I should forget I ever knew him. I have emailed this guy for 2 years and known him for an additional year before the mission (Though we have not met) I can't forget him because he has helped me through SOOOO much. I have been overthinking and now I am under the impression he does not want to talk to me ever again. I know this isn't a big deal, but I guess my mind is going crazy because I know my message is in his inbox, but he is not replying, but Is to others. Any comfort or advice? I have prayed for help to just distract myself and not think about it, but, It is not working so well.
