So I feel like this is a pretty lousy thing to ask for advice on, but I’ve been struggling with it for a while.
I really like one of my friends who recently left on his mission. I have no idea if he has feelings for me, and so I really don’t want to dwell on it.However it’s bothered me to the point that I have been praying for some kind of help for MONTHS. I often switch up what I’m asking for, but for the most part it’s for help knowing what to do right now. It’s been difficult because I just feel like I’ve been receiving mixed promptings. Wait, don’t wait, it will work, he isn’t meant for me. It’s really confusing, and I just hate it because right now I’m just unable to be interested in anyone else because it consumes my thoughts! I have yet to really tell anyone for fear they would think I’m being pretty dramatic, and if you honestly think I need to get over it already and stop worrying so much, let me know. I DON’T want to tell this boy my feelings, because it’s wrong for me to cause any kind of distraction when he’s taking this time to do the Lord’s work. Not only that, but we have grown up close and I don’t want to ruin a good friendship. I know that no matter what, I need to take these few years apart and experience dating, but it’s a little hard when I feel like I’d only be comparing every boy I meet to him. I don’t know. I’m really new to dating and what not, so I’d just really like to get feedback from my fellow Mormons thanks
