Why Is She Making Me Feel Like This?
To cut a long story short, I'll just summarize the whole story: I really, REALLY liked this girl in high school. Well, because I'm a really shy person, I couldn't bring myself to approach her in person to let her know how I feel, so I resorted to writing her letters and notes, which she said were "sweet", but she never responded to any of them and every time I bumped into her and wanted to say "hi" or something, she would act like she has no idea who I am. She's really pretty and popular, and I'm a typical nobody, so she probably used to act like that because she thought I was embarrassing or something. Anyway, since I was a pretty good artist, I used to draw her all these pictures which she, and her friends really liked, but never me... Eventually, I stopped bothering, feeling hurt and used (yeah, she never 'asked' me to do any of those things, but I just felt like I'd 'used' MYSELF, y'know?) and I really threw myself out there for someone who didn't even give a crap about me. Well, the problem is it's been about two years since all this happened, but I can't get over her and I feel REALLY embarrassed every time I think about the letters and the pictures and I wish the Earth would just swallow me whole! The strange thing is that sometimes I feel like I really HATE her for being so cold towards me and never really paying me any attention when I was trying so hard! I sometimes just feel angry at her, but more like hurt at the same time and I feel like a loser every time I think about her. Why is she making me feel like this? I really want to get over these emotions and forget about her, but I can't. I feel like she's got a hold on me, and yet I've got absolutely nothing on her, and she probably got rid of all my letters and pictures :( Please help... how can I get over this?

She is not making you feel like this. You are making yourself feel like that. You must have picked up that this girl was not interested in you. And you must have known that she didn't want to hurt your feelings. And that is why the only thing she could tell you is that your letters and note were sweet. You can't say that you were that innocent in all of this because you said it yourself that you threw yourself out there for someone who didn't give a crap about you. And when you bumped into her and she pretended that she didn't know who you were then that was clear enough for you to understand that she was not interested in you. And that is when you should have walked away and forgot about her. But you didn't do that and you kept thinking and thinking about her.
It has been two years now and I don't believe that you still have feelings for this girl. I do believe that you are embarrassed because you think you made a fool of yourself but you should not feel this way at all. And I honestly believe that this girl has already forgotten about this. Today you are older and I'm sure history will not repeat itself. You were younger two years ago and sometimes when we are young, and we do make mistakes. But that's all, it is. And there is no reason for you to feel like a looser. You are not a looser. You were just a young guy in love with someone who was not in love with you.
This girl has no hold on you unless you let her have that power over you. And you get over these emotions and you can stop thinking about her. You are in control of your mind. So take control of it. Start going out as often as you can with your friends and stop focusing on this girl and what you did two years ago. Two years ago is part or your past and that is where you should leave it. You really need to get a grip here and move on. Try going out with other girls. And try to enjoy life.

Not to be harsh, but it's a little selfish of you to feel this way, you act like she had some sort of obligation to like you just because you did something nice, but blaming someone else for the way you feel is rarely the answer. Your tactic for getting her attention was a good one, and a lot of girls would be really into that, you should get back out there and try again, it's always easier to live with the past when you're happy and focused in the present.

First things first............this girl has nothing to do with how YOU feel. Only you have control over your feelings. You have decided to give her the power to make you feel so bad. She isn't living her life to make you feel bad. One thing that you need to understand is that not every person you like or feel for is going to feel the same for you. It makes it interesting to find the one that does like you the same :) And when you do, you wont believe how good that feels. The reason you can't stop thinking about this girl is because you haven't decided to stop thinking about her. Try to focus on other things or look for other girls (there are plenty). Wouldn't it be great to find someone who really likes YOU for who you are? I mean it would be wonderful. Every time you think of this girl that makes you feel bad, just tell yourself that she isn't the one and you have to move on. You don't have to be upset with her..........it's not her fault that she isn't into you. We all have different chemistry attractions. Think of how you would feel if a girl that you weren't interested in was really into you and you knew you werent into her. Try and see it the other way and you will understand it better. Look around and try and see the good in people and you will, in no time, find someone even better than this girl. you deserve someone to really enjoy who you are :)

Nothing doing! Simple few steps. Don't bother about peoples who dislikes or pays no attention to you. Get rid of such peoples. Look around yourself - there are many peoples who love you. Who wish to be your good friend, your parents, your sisters, brothers, relatives.... Don't waste your life for such idiots you dislike you.

1.) Maybe she didn't like you romantically but was really scared to hurt you by letting you know so she pretended not to really know.
2.) She was shy and wanted you to make a move.
3.) Did she already have a boyfriend maybe? I don't know....
Those are some guesses!

You are on a right way - way to receive what you REALLY want.
If it didn't go well on a 24th time, try 25th time...
