Is it normal to hate my crush?

I have a crush on a friend. I told her and she rejected me. She was actually really mean about it saying I shouldn't have imagined she'd want to go out with me as she's way out of my league. It was really awful and childish as we're 26 and 28. I felt as if she could have handled it better.

She later apologised and we became friends again. I still have feelings of attraction to her and I'm obsessing about her, but I also hate her for how much she hurt me. It's caused me to act up and be a jerk to her from time to time, pick at her and say mean things, call her names randomly when she hasn't done anything. I don't think we will ever get along again like before. We were really good friends for a long time. I can't get over what's happened.

We have talked it over a few times and it looked like things were going to be okay, but I stil can't get over it.

    I think you guys need some time apart. If you see her too much, you'll keep dwelling on those feelings.

    If you want to, you'll be able to be friends again in the future, but right now you need to spend more time with other people if you want to get over her.

    I hope this helps

    I'm surprised being rude to her hasn't made her start to like you more. I've witnessed it time and time again. Guy is nice to a girl and she doesn't want him. Guy is ass to girl and she falls in love.

    She's a bitch , what a thing to say say to you especially supposedly being good friends.
    Mine has a really savage tongue too , it's just a really destructive and ugly thing about her that usually cuts me atleast once or twice a day when we're around each other.
    On one hand she's sending out signals i n this shy and forward then pull back way , the next she'll just come out with something that really cuts you.
    I've decided she's basically a bitch by nature ,she just has this really smart/ass mouth in her nature and totally uncalled for stuff too/ unfortunately something I'm hating about her , there's no need for that shit . We can all be an ass/h and hurtful to someone close if we wanted too but why , wtf for ?
    I'm dumping the whole idea I've decided , f'n had enough of it . As much as I want her , f'n living in a love hate things just bs.

    Basically if truth be said , she thinks she's much much better than you deep down , so doesn't that just make you her lapdog until somem else comes along ?

    Rejection hurts a lot. It doesn't matter whether it was your kindergarten teacher who praised your little classmate's rainbow more than your dinosaur eating The Jonas Brothers or your boss firing you from your dream job. We're bound to be rejected many times in our lives, so we just have to deal with it, and you'll find your best way to do it. What I would like to talk about, though, is friends. That's the part of your story that got to me.

    I've had that happen to me before, as I usually befriend guys. Yes, that blablabla men and women can't be friends thing. Friends are the people we decided not to fuck, for one reason or another. I'm pretty sure my best friend of 12 years and I are only friends because we never happened as romantic partners. At the very beginning he said he wanted to, and I replied "Ewww!!! Nooo!! You have dandruff on your eyebrows! Never!". Okay, I was almost convinced one night, but it never ever happened. We now live again in the same city after several years of adventurous living moving around, each on their own adventure. And we managed to remain friends. Moth & Mammoth. My point is that hopefully you can keep this in mind and maintain the friendship you have. Lick your wounds, hate her all you need to and, if you value the friend and can get over the attraction, make up.

    im sorry to say this but if the situation is like that than the only right thing to do is to stop obsesing with her, because by the sound of things it seems that its not going to work. you need to find someone who you can really connect to and get along with.

    Na, it's fine. Act like a jerk, flirt & kiss other girls in front of her, don't care about her anymore & then 90% chance she'll do a 180 come to you & say what a mistake it was & she's realized recently how much she actually cares about you.

    If there's that 10% it doesn't happen, guess what?

    A) you won't care anymore.
    B) you'll have got it on with some other girls.

    Score.

    Do it!

    Having sex with one of my friends ruined our friendship, for some people it may work... 9 out of 10 times it may not. Friendship love and feelings are different to the other love and feelings or lust, and it clashes often resulting in situations like this, its unfortunate that once you cross that line it more than likely will never be the same again.

    Being as nasty as that, should help you go off her.
    Who would want to go out with such an arrogant pig as her?

    Wow, I'd be pretty pissed off as well, but the fact that you still feel attraction as well as hate in my opinion means that you really do like her and hating her is painful. Time apart from each other could help cool the hatred.

  • It's not easy to be away from her because we have so many common friends and acivities. I've even been excluding myself from things I enjoy to try to avoid her.

    Soz for double post, but to comment on a post above, the worst thing you can do is STOP being mean to her. By being mean she'll feel guilty and feel that she owes you. Plus, you're entitled to it, she was a bitch.
