But I mean we've talked about maybe seeing if there's still something there when he comes back. But I think that I just need to not talk to him while he's gone; I've muted him on some social media so that I can distance myself as much as possible... Ugh. This is almost worse (for me) than a break up because at least with a break up there's a clear end but we kinda just muted/paused/exited whatever this was, at least for the time being.
tl;dr I hate boys and feelings suck
Honestly, you really need to sit down and think about what you want. Do you only talk to him through social media? You already stopped talking to each other? You feel you don't want to talk to him for six months? You have distanced yourself? WHY have you distanced yourself? Are you unhappy? Are you moving on?
It takes two to tango and you both are contributing to the silence and awkwardness. You may both be confused or making assumptions about how the other feels. If you want to know where you stand, you need to ask and also work on where YOU want to be and where you want things to go.
To other person - Have they done anything to interfere with your relationship, act inappropriately with your bf, etc? If not, then I kind of say let it go. She wanted to get their feelings out there but if they have been appropriate and respectful and good friends thus far then I don't see why that has to change. YES, it makes it weird knowing that. But they see that you guys are happy. You can think long and hard whether you want to tell this new information to your bf or not but at the very least, sit on the information for a day or more. Let it sink in until you can think more rationally.
