The never dating

We never actually dated we only talked, but it felt so really we fell for each other fast or at least I fell for him. He said he loved me. I said I loved him too the same day he said he needed space then later that night he texted me and said he’s not sure what he wanted and then we kept talking, I should’ve known to stop. Then the very next night I woke up at around 4 AM to see a text from him. it was a long paragraph and I knew I didn’t wanna read it as I started reading it. It said that he didn’t want me and he didn’t want me to wait for him. I couldn’t sleep at all for a week because I never got to date him and I never got to actually know him and I Think that that’s why I still miss him.
