Apparently I now mean nothing to my best friend

Kimberley • Aussie • 17 • fashion • makeup

So I’ve been best friends with this guy for almost a year. We’re both almost 18 now and at the beginning we were crushing hard but we decided to keep it chilled for senior year, so our feelings went away. But we were still so attracted to each other so we’ve caught up a couple times and made out and had oral sex. But recently he’s lost respect for me and has started treating me more like an object and whenever we have an argument or something and I get mad at him he tells me that I’m overreacting and have no reason to be mad, like my feelings and opinions are invalid.

But I am literally the most chilled person you will meet, and I even get told that. I keep my thoughts and feelings collected and choose my battles wisely, but he just can’t admit when he’s wrong and turns everything against me

So on Tuesday we were arguing and he said to me “I'm not gonna put in any effort to be friends it’s that simple” so I fucking dumped that ass

But seeing him around school is still hard. We haven’t talked at all or even made eye contact, no messages, nothing

I’ve always been the one to mend the mess and sort out the issues and be friends so I’m leaving this one for him

I just don’t understand how he can consider me his best friend for so long, kiss me, cuddle me, and then turn it around and not even talk to me or want to be friends anymore

It hurts
