For the next month or 2 after that i spent my time thinking about him and what if i had said yes and so i told him what i was thinking, i find i tell him pretty much everything as i know he wont judge me. He told me he'd found someone else and he is with her to this day. So ive basically spent the last two years in regret wishing i hadnt left it too late. I'd tried moving on and last summer i met this guy and we had a great time but i couldnt help thinking 'what if this was ben i was with'. We broke up after 2 months as we sort of drifted apart and i was left single again and thinking about ben. Soon after i broke up with my last boyfriend ben starting saying things like ' if we'ed gotton together i think we'ed still be together now' and 'you never forget the first person you fall in love with' later that day he kissed me, his girlfriend was on holiday in italy, and i know i shouldnt have and it was wrong but i couldnt help it. Afterwards he was all 'that was a mistake im so so sorry please try and forget it' and was just like right. and since then nothing particulary has happened but i think i need to tell him how im feeling. I feel like im lying to him and that he deserves to know even though im pretty prepared that he'll just turn me down.
any thoughts? (if you could be bothered to read all that)
