Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
I was wanting some advice, this isn't about depression but my depression can make it hard for me to say my feelings out loud. I have very strong feelings for someone I've known for a few years, I've never told him how I feel. When we first met we were both in other relationaships, my ex boyfriend was very violent and jealous and when we eventually split up it took a long time for me to get back in contact with this guy I like. When I finally rang him we arranged to meet up and I was so excited to see him but he turned up with his new girlfriend (who is a horrible person). I wasn't sure if he'd brought her along so I got the message he was attached, or because we are supposedly friends and he wanted me to meet her. Since then we've stayed in touch but I've never told or hinted of my feelings towards him. I'm not interested in anyone else and have been sort of waiting for this guy to give me a sign or leave his gf. I know it's wrong to interfere with a relationship but my life is on hold and I was thinking if I plucked up the courage to tell him how i really feel then there would be some sort of closure to this. Ideally I'd like him to tell me he feels the same but if he doesn't I guess I'm better off knowing sooner rather than later. What do you think I should do? My heart is breaking....

Has he given you any indications that he likes you too?

Not really, thought he is very nervous around me, he doesn't look me in the eye. I took a friend to meet him last week and she said he was acting very nervously, she also said his gf was giving me bitchy glances all night and seemed obviously jealous. I don't know what to do, if my feelings weren't so strong i'd just forget it. But I've liked him for years now.

does he like u aswell?

Ok maybe its time to take the plunge, Like Jane said hes not married. Be honest with him and be prepared for the worst.... After all the worst that can happen is he'll say no.

Thanks for the advice, I will take a deep breath, be honest with him and see what he says. I am prepared for him to reject me.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
