I made a mistake

I have a crush on a person . They eventually became my closest friend . The only one I talk to on a regular basis now that all of my other close friends have a life I am not part of anymore. I told myself it is never going to work out and things were fine. But they initiated sexting one day and despite knowing better I indulged . They regretted it the next day and I am left feeling horrible . This has taken away what little self esteem I had after going through multiple rejections in the past.

I have no one to talk about this .

I don’t know what to say. At least now you know better than to get involved in that kind of conversation.

i’ve been through this so many times, i always was rejected and if not i went through the worst trauma i’ve had to this day. it’s hard but the one thing that has helped my self esteem, worth, and love is looking at myself in the mirror and telling myself i am loved and worthy and that anyone who can’t see that shouldn’t be in my life. i also would write down one thing i liked about myself and one thing i was proud of myself for every day. i would stick them to my wall and anywhere i could see so it was a little reminder everyday. i still have trouble with it but overall i’m much better than i was when i was younger

I actually had something similar happen. I was completely ghosted shortly after. I don't think you should feel bad. It was a mutual thing at the time. You are human. You wanted to have fun. It's their regret that bothers you but it's not regret that it was you. It's that they feel that they crossed a line with you. It's really not something you should feel shame about. It happens all the times. The attention you put on it will make it worse. It's been 9 months now and I still think about him lol I also have low self esteem. It could also be something totally unrelated to you. He was interested and opened that door. You entertained it. He felt something. Please don't feel bad.

Hi SS01

Here's a novel idea .... Tell him the truth about ur fellings BUT i will state this Are U ready to be in a relationship of 3/4 as there would be Him , U as well as ur anxiety & depression.

See as ur friend he only has to listen but as a lover they will need to deal with it too. Im not trying to dissuade you from being in a relationship but with anxiety & depression , its like taking a car to a wood turner to get fixed .

Also nothing wrong with feeling amorous, we are human after all & we all sometimes wish for more , so dont be or see any negatives in it.

when ur (a person) is i love...we wabt to plse so much....and to be wanted as human being find someone who wants us and keep the person buld the relationshp we hope goes etc....so we comply and cooperatie ..and want to plese.........then ...the toher person dos things that violate us or shame us etc........well thats their fault.......Sunset..i assure u u soulnd like a verv very caring life partner......wonderful carig woma who tries to plse........a tribute to u ..........shame shame shame oh him.....not u
