Original Reddit post

for context i’ve known him for over 4 years now. we met on snapchat ( awful I know) found we lived in the same area so we hung out and we eventually shared a mutual friend. I got into a toxic relationship so I stopped talking with them, then shortly after that our mutual friend passed away. he was obviously devastated, as that was his bestfriend. I reached back out, and was told that I was the only person who truly stuck around after his death and made sure he was fine. that was 3 years ago. since then it’s been an annoying game of who will unadd who first. it’s happened over 10 times. it had been a year of us not talking, then a couple months ago he reached out, he was obviously depressed and told me he tried taking his own life. we talked for weeks about his therapy, how he’s feeling, life and hobbies then he told me he liked me, then that he loves me. which turned into a week of us being flirty before he unadded me again. usually i’d just go see him, but i’ve moved 8 hours away. two weeks after unadding me he adds me again, he apologizes saying that he feels guilty talking to me bc his heart is still broken over his ex girlfriend. and for some reason, even though they haven’t talked in month he still feels he should be loyal to her. i’m so fucking confused and honestly just want my friend back. I said we should just stay friends but it feels so awkward now, my friend of four years made me feel like a rebound. submitted by /u/CareerOk540
