Never had a chance
It's easy to say that you're ready to move on and start anew with someone else, but it's hard to actually do it when your mind and heart is still with the one you need to move on from. The actions of someone has proven that he/she doesn't want to be with you. His/her lack of communication and interest gives you no reason to try and build anything other than a friendship. However, you can't let go of that little bit of hope for something you've wanted for so long. You go through the motions of being with another, yet, you're not really there. The sad part to it all is the other person starts to feel something for you. That other person honestly believed you when you said that you were emotionally, physically, and mentally ready for a lasting relationship, but you were thinking of the other person when you said those very words. No one will ever have a chance to love you if you can't stop loving the one who doesn't want to be with you.
