I have feelings for a gay guy

So i am gonna be completely honest because i’m not gonna sit here and type a bunch of lies. So i started catching feelings for my guy friend let’s call him “justin” bc that’s a hot name right? So i had a feeling Justin liked me and i’m pretty much always right when i think someone likes me. Once i started catching feelings, i remember being so happy; like i was on cloud nine. Anyway, so we started being pretty flirty for a while. A couple months to be more specific. But he’s a clingy guy and i’m someone who just needs and likes to have space. So we started to gradually grow apart. My friends would tell me that he would non stop talk about me. Don’t get me wrong i still had feelings for him, i just thought that space would make him chill out. We started to get close again a couple of weeks ago and Justin seemed less obsessive and it was nice.

About a couple of days ago, Justin came out to me and told me he was gay. I am really truly happy for him. i’ll admit i was confused bc he’s had girlfriends in the past and especially since he admitted to me he liked me. So i was conflicted bc up until a couple of days ago he was straight. He told me that like he’s always been gay which is obvious bc that’s normally how it works. He said he thought he was supposed to like me bc i liked him. My friends told me that he didn’t actually like me but just the idea of me which makes sense a lot of ppl are like that. I’m just conflicted bc i like Justin but he won’t like me back bc he’s not attracted to guys. Also like i really thought we had something; i truly have/had (i am very confused) feelings for him so it kinda stings. my friend told me that i’m just upset now bc i want what i can’t have but i’ve always wanted him. I know it’s a little selfish and self-obsessed of me to make his coming out about me but i’m sorry i can’t help it. We kinda agreed to just be friends i mean there’s nothing else we can do. It’s gonna take some time to not be awkward.

I don’t really know who to turn and talk to because all my friends are also his friends.

This app has become like my outlet and i love it for that. If you have any comments like you wanna tell me to stop making this about me or you wanna give me advice pls do so. Thank you in advance. Luv ya babes💕
