Short summary from previous post - I started to had feelings for a guy and thought that he likes me too based on how he acted with me, but then he found himself a girlfriend.

So after some time with low contact I realized that my "feelings" are not that deep as I thought they were. I think it was more like an emotional attachment to a person who supported me so so much when I was stepping out of a toxic environment and even more so before that.

Yesterday we met and I can't even tell you how free and chill our time was and it was GREAT. I am extremely happy to have a friend like him and I am truly happy for him. His new relationship sounds very nice and sweet and I wish him the best.

Also, recently I joined one hobby group and I met a guy there. We have a lot in common, he is funny and smart. I think he is flirting with me a little bit, but I'll see where it goes. Maybe I will ask him out some time soon. I know this is all very sudden, but it is sudden for me too and I surely didn't expect all that story to go this way.

BTW, my friend is also pushing me to invite my "new crush" for a beer or coffee, so I think this proves he didn't have any feelings for me, except friendliness.

Thank you all for replying to my original post. Thanks for support, thanks for disagreeing with me and thanks for your time.

TL;DR Me and a friend are going to stay friends I hope for long time and now I have a new crush.
