I Finally Landed My Crush – Only to Discover He Was Still in Love with His Ex

I spent years crushing on Jacob before he finally admitted he had feelings for me. At first, everything felt perfect – our calls, dates, and the moment he asked me to be his girlfriend. But after four months, he started avoiding my calls and blaming work stress. My gut told me something was off. I checked his ex’s social media and realised he’d never truly let her go. He broke up with me and soon reunited with his ex on Valentine’s Day – posting photos and a message that made me feel like a placeholder. His honesty hurt more than lies, so I blocked them both and began to heal. Now, I’ve vowed never to date someone less than six months out of a relationship. I still believe in love, but I’ll never be anyone’s rebound again.
