How I prayed when I felt caught between two boys
There was a boy in one of my classes—let’s call him Will—who I was pretty certain liked me. I liked him too, at first. But then he started acting differently and wouldn’t hang out with me, so I moved on.
I became close friends with another boy, let’s call him Luca, and we were in the same friend group as Will. Soon I learned that both of them liked me—a lot more than I had initially thought. This made me feel I was stuck in the middle, especially when they competed for my attention nearly every day. Will was a really good friend, and I didn’t want to hurt him. But I also didn’t want to feel pulled in two directions or give him a reason to suspect I was interested when I wasn’t.
