Look, you're not dating. Yes, you're still head over heels in love with him. But you know he's never going to want to be more than friends. Ever. Period. Get over it. You say you need to, but you're not willing to. All your friends tell you to, but you refuse. Now let me make this nice and clear
IT IS NOT YOUR PLACE TO CONTROL WHO HE IS FRIENDS WITH OR WHO HE WANTS TO HAVE FEELINGS FOR.
You have absolutely no right to yell at him and get in giant arguments any time he doesn't do what you want him to. If he doesn't feel like texting you, calling you, hanging out with you, etc., then he doesn't have to. If he wants to talk to a girl, if he wants to make a new friend that's a girl, if he wants to attempt a new relationship, then he can. You are his FRIEND. And only his friend. Nothing more. I don't care how close of friends the two of you are, you cannot control him. Feel free to be upset that he's moving on an you're not. But just keep it to yourself. Or cry to your other friends. Other people want to have more prominent roles in your life, but you just won't let them. He should never have to feel guilty for having feelings for someone. If you really, truly loved him like you say you do, you would be happy for him because he has finally found someone that could very well be the perfect girl for him. You should let him live his life in the way that is best for him, not you. He deserves the best. He has made it very clear that you are not the right girl for him. So stop keeping him from opportunities that could lead to the right girl.
Now don't think that I just think you're an awful person. We've tried telling you that you need to move on. What you're doing now is not moving on. You actually need this even more than he does. He is going to leave you some day soon. He will graduate, move on with his life, and you'll be left here alone. I tried telling you before that you need to take this time to re-strengthen your other friendships, so that when he does leave, you have someone to fall back on. So please, for both of you, let him go.
Now back to tough love.
If you ruin this weekend for us, you'll be hearing from me. My BEST FRIEND IN THE WHOLE WORLD is coming to visit me, which rarely happens. She wants to see him, and he wants to see her. If you keep that from happening, there will be hell. Believe me. He is allowed to have friends. He is allowed to hang out with them with the rest of the group there too when they come to town. So just let it happen, or all of your friends will certainly be pissed at you.
