Reply #3: I think...

throwing the note in the bonfire may have been a good symbolic first step.

I wish I had some really good advice to give you Little Bit. Everything I could say is cliches you've probably heard a million times. Give it time, other fish in the sea, etc. (Although I totally disagree with the person who told you you should be having lots of sex.)

A couple of things. First, I think you need to have a discussion with the friend you think was "taunting" you. That's not cool. Second, I don't ever want to hear you refer to yourself as stupid ever again. No self-deprication ok? Ok. You're a bright articulate young man.

Part of me thinks you shoulda made a move on the cute girl. Introduced yourself. Talked a bit. Another part says that's probably not a good idea until you're over the current situation. I'd hate to see you just fall into the same pattern again.

I feel like I'm not being very helpful (or coherent). It's late and if I think of any fabulous advice overnight I'll be sure to respond again. Mostly I just didn't want you to feel like you were out here alone Little Bit. You know if you ever need anything I'm here. Ok? Ok.
