I suppose you can call it a post about friendzone?

Ok, serious topic.
My best friend has a crush on a guy. So Obviously, I'm a therapist now, right?
Let me tell you a bit of back story. She was kind of crushing on this guy, let's call him guy A for a moment and they were having a party at someones house and then she kind of fell asleep near guy B. Like, I don't think I remember everything correctly, but the point is, with a bit of talking and spending time together at group's parties, my friend kind of fell for the guy B. As what she texted me and what we've talked about, it seemed to me she really liked him and he kind of liked her back.
But now, yesterday, they had like a huge weekend away party at someones beach house or something and she was sooooo excited because he was going there as well. And I got a text later that day, that he's there with his girlfriend.
I mean, you kind of can understand that she was more or less heartbroken. And my baby is really sensitive person. Like, she gets sad really easily and it's really hard to cheer her up. I told her not to be near him, but then again, guy B is always everywhere (you know that kind of guy who does everything everywhere). She didn't really want to talk about it, so I went to work and left her be. I know when she needs space.

But that's not the point here. I know she hates my optimism and strong mentality, but I can't help it. I told her that it's not fair for her to be sad when he's the one that lost her. She told me she likes him, so that's fair and I told her she's wrong. She is one of the most wonderful people I've met in my life and she was one of the reasons why I didn't kill myself after my Mum's funeral. She is that kind of person who'd always bring a smile to your face and makes jokes just to make you laugh. I love her with all my heart and I would kill anyone who'd dare to hurt her. So you can imagine how much I hate this guy B at the moment, even if I haven't even met him. I told her that a girl like her doesn't need a guy who wouldn't appreciate what he has. I asked her to repeat to herself that she likes him as a friend. I asked her to see him as a person who she likes not in a romantic way. I know it's not as easy as it sounds, I told her she'll need to tell this to herself every fucking day and eventually she will believe it.

And then she said 'whatever'. My friend, who never, and I repeat, EVER, brushed off my advice, just said it to me. I mean, c'mon, I have crushes as well, I know what it's like to see them with someone else. I don't remember the last time I cried for a guy. I'd rather find another reason to cry if I ever wanted to cry about the boy, but he will not be the main reason for my tears. I will not let another person make me sad just because they live their life and so happens I wish they lived their life with me as a part of it. You may think I talk nonsense, but honestly, if a person doesn't like you back, it's his loss. You are the most amazing person you can be and no one has a right to make you feel like shit. As for me, you guys know my story. I have a tendency to fall for my best friend who is usually a guy. I am not denying, I cried over my first crush A LOT. Like, it was devastating and I was heartbroken and it sucked, everything was so bad I wanted to stay in my room forever. And then I got over him. How? I started noticing bits that I didn't like about him, I saw what kind of girls he liked and it made me realise that I am way better than them. That he does not deserve ME. I have a crush now, but you know what? I never cried over the fact I can't call him my boyfriend. I spend time with him, I notice every little detail in what he does, I notice good and bad things and yes, I do think I deserve him and he deserves me, but you know what? If it's not gonna happen, I'm not going to whine about it. Why? because that's life. You live, you get your heart broken, you become in love again and then again and again.... These things happens. But it doesn't mean I'm going to let myself cry over something that didn't even happen. Even if I wanted it to happen. I live my life to be happy, not miserable. I spent way too much time being sad and crying over not important stuff. It's time I forget about them and play my happiness game.

Please, read a book for me, ok?

This. This is a book I love so much it makes me cry every time I read it. And I read it quite a lot. I know it's supposed to be children's book, but every time I read it, it reminds me that life is about living. And living means enjoying it. Please, read it and tell me what do you think. I have no idea how I'd have gone without this book in my life.
