I've never been so down in my life. We had the chance to talk about what's the real deal and that we decided to just keep the status quo between us. Nothing else.

On the verge of the happening, I asked a couple of people on how I would deal with this, but I still resorted on telling him what I really feel...which in fact makes me sad and happy at the same time. At least my burden's gone, and it's his turn of the story to fight this battle.

There are still some occasions that I do regret saying all of those things to him, but in fact, I still think that it's better said now than to linger on the blind faith I've had for this past few months.

I am still moving on, so is life. There's nothing different to it as to the other people I met, at least we're still very good friends (or so I hope that this remains) but quoting from what he said from the previous IM exchange:

"putting it all in time is lulling urself to a false sense of security"
