A slightly long question, but please I need advice

A female United States age 30-35, *istwolf2 writes:

I've been very confused lately and I haven't yet decided what to do, so any input would be appreciated. :]

I'm a 14 year old in high school--please don't judge me by my age. I recently moved from NJ to MN to CA. I lived in NJ for the vast majority of my life, and when I first started going to grade school I met my first friend in that area. His nickname was Dallas. We were best friends for a long time but weren't in each other's classes much after first grade.

In fourth grade, however, Dallas asked me to be his girlfriend. Being a shy little girl who happened to know the connotations of love, I just said I'd think about it, but never replied. (I also had developed a crush on him).

Throughout middle school, we didn't talk much because he had become more or less a bully, yet he wouldn't really insult me and when he said something that I might not like, he did back off. In eighth grade, we didn't communicate much at all and I started to realize that I want to at least try to push him in the right direction (no bullying, care about himself, etc). Now that we're separated by miles, I tried sending a message to him via Facebook, but he never replies to what I say to him and when he does it's a short exchange of "how are you?" kinds of things. I want to tell him what I think of him, but don't want to do it so bluntly that it would destroy the 9 years we've known each other. Any ideas?

My friend said maybe I could tell him to listen to a song with similar lyrics to what I think..such as "Which to Bury; Us or the Hatchet" by Relient K.

He's not talking to you because you broke his heart. You need to apologize to him for not getting back to him and explain that you were not ready for a relationship when he approached to you previously. Don't expect him to come running after you, hun. There's a pride thing he'll need to get over as well, but only he can do that. The heart is a fragile thing. It is easily rent and quickly spent, but much time is required to heal it of its pangs from yesteryear.

ok to me your story is kinda complicated but my dear i do think you should talk to him in person if not send him a long message explaining everything bluntly but nicely.talking in person is usually better.just let him know you care.
