Unrequited love is one of the worst feelings our heart has in store for our mind.
The good thing is, you already are on a good path to recovery, if you understand that you'll be fine eventually. This advice is often repeated, but getting your mind off this thing and onto a different thing is usually the best action. If you have friends, they can help accelerate this process of making your heart understand what your mind already knows: That there is a light on the horizon, and what you are feeling now is simply a storm that will pass.
This might sound like grand, empty words, but there is no way past those emotions. You simply have to feel them and move on.
I’m feeling how I am afterwards is that I haven’t so suddenly felt as intensely interested in someone for possibly my entire life.
Our mind often likes to interpret past missed opportunities as better than they actually were. Of course I don't know the details of the situation, only you do. I would not chase this feeling again, and focus on yourself instead.
If I can help in any way with occupying you, let me know. I don't know if you play video games, or read books or watch movies, but if you don't have friends close to you to help you out with this, I can attempt my best to fill this role. Feel free to shoot my a private message if you are uncomfortable with a public thread.
Some people just have the right personality for you and it feels like they’re perfect. It’s not wrong to value that, but for myself I am trying to value a willingness to put in work far more. I’m...
Some people just have the right personality for you and it feels like they’re perfect. It’s not wrong to value that, but for myself I am trying to value a willingness to put in work far more. I’m still in the thinking phase rather than the feeling phase on that.

I think if the person has made it clear that is wasn't a thing I wouldn't push too hard, out of respect but also to not hurt my chances any further. It's probably a better strategy to be casual and say something like "I understand your decision but if in the future you want to do something don't hesitate to contact me again, I'd be up for it". Some people have randomly contacted me after not seeing me for a year, so that can happen.
For the sadness you can either let it go, mop around for a week and then you'll be mostly fine. You can also hang out to it and try harder, but that can have negative effects on your mental health, so you've got to monitor yourself and press the eject button if it gets too bad.

I'm sorry.
There is something incredibly heart breaking about lost opportunities.
I've been around the block a few times. I've never felt regret about the relationships that were multi-year train wrecks. It's the magical train wrecks that could have been which always make me feel wistful.
One of my favorite relationship books is Shel Silverstein's The Missing Piece Meets the Big O.
For the longest time I thought if I only could find the right person, I would find happiness.
I now tend to think happiness comes from within.
After every heart break I would find something fun to learn.
You may never know what could have been, but you can find out what exciting adventure is next.

Man I know the feeling. I meet some one on tinder we texted endless for a few weeks finally went on a date and it went fantastic. Went on a second and it was better called me on the drive home for no reason. Had a third that was awesome too. Next day she messaged me saying she wasn't sure it was what she wanted.
We were 2 hours apart which I understand but we seemed to kick it off great. I felt and feel she gave up early.
A two weeks later she messaged me asking if we could still talk. And we picked back up texting like nothing changed. After a week of that I asked what we were doing this seems like more then friends. She said she was already seeing someone.
We really clicked and I thought it was really making me happy. I fell into a bit of depression after that still coming out of it.

That's rough. I'm sorry to hear that. Relationships are complicated and entering them can be scary, I hope y'all figure things out.
