Fix My Broken Heart

read the Final Notes please.



My best friend is breaking my heart. I am so in love with him, but I don't want to jeopardize our friendship. I don't know what I would do with myself if I EVER lost him. If you want a more in depth explanation, go to :
http://storywrite.com/poem/961000


Now, the topics you shall write on.

Option 1) Help me figure out what to do. It's killing me to sit on the sidelines, just watching what could happen between us happen with other girls. Don't give me that "buck up and get over him" kind of stuff. Believe me, I've tried to be interested in other guys. Don't tell me to do something that would jeopardize our friendship, either. Be aware-we have only been true best friends for about 6 months, and he has a tendency to read a little too much into things sometimes.

Option 2) Give me your story of TRUE unrequited love. I don't want love between an inanimate object, animal, or celebrity and you. I want this to be person-to-person, heart in hand kind of stuff. I want you to write on either point of view- the lover or the receiver. I want true, raw emotion. If you cried, make me cry. Make me feel how you did.

*************************UNREQUITED MEANS UN-RETURNED************************

The Dreaded                     RULES
1) Enter as many times as you want...It takes skill to write poetry/stories by a deadline.

2) No prewrites-If you have one that you think is "perfect", IM me the link and why I should accept it.

3) Make it between 3 and 10 stanza/paragraphs.

4) I prefer stories for this kind of thing, but I want both formats. You may get gold for a poem that you enter. I DON'T WANT RHYMING POEMS!!!!!

5)If you want erotica as part of option 2, then make it tasteful. If it isn't, you will be warned. Also, if it isn't marked "adult" or "erotica", then you WILL be deleted.

6) No StIcKy CaPs!!! NO CAPS LOCK EITHER!!! and no ch@ talk

7) Cursing is only allowed in stories with dialogue.

8) Comment on two of my poems:
            My Beautiful
                 &
               Kindra
And one poem in the contest. You should earn 6 points
-Should you choose not to earn points for yourself, then donate 10 to me.

9)put "love is like a cheap boomerang-it doesn't always come back to you" in your author's comments. If it isn't there, I won't judge you.

10) Don't be insulted if I don't comment on your writing right away. I'm on Christmas Break in Ohio and my parents, my sisters and I are snowed into our house. If you don't understand, watch the news.


Prizes-
1st place- 325 pts
2nd place- ? it depends on how many I have left
3rd place- ? ^^^


REMEMBER- I want true, raw emotion. Not that fluffy, kissy-kissy, sappy stuff. You have been warned.

USE THE FREAKING SPELL CHECK TOO!!!!!!!! I can't stand misspelled words and bad grammar in stories and poems!

    You are so lucky, "unrequited love" is like my middle name I had a best friend, and we were like brother and sister for two years and when I realized I had feelings for him I told him and he in turn went out with my best friend and now he doesn't even want any part of me, I am still heartbroken about it and I even have a collection titled "Paul" about him... let me see what I can think of and I will definitely enter Thanks for informing me about your contest. I'm sorry that he is giving you such a hard time, I know how that is

    i understand. i did take your advice seriously though. i'm in the process of figuring out what to do with what everyone has told me i should do. i just wanted to give other people in this position a place to speak their minds on it, tell their story.
    thank you!

    I wish you the best of luck in love and the contest, I wish I could write a poem or story for you but, Since I have met and married a great man I have forgotten all others. And I beleive in honesty so if it were me I would tell him and risk it. But that is just me.

    I have a situation in mind that I can probably put into some form of poem or something, but I'm not really being hit by inspiration at the moment. It was 5 years ago so it's not fresh in my memory; and looking back on it, I wasn't too terribly heart broken by it. If I can't come up with anything, I wish you the best of luck in sorting this all out. All I can tell you from what I learned from my situation is that you're probably better off remaining just friends. Feeling awkward for loving him and nothing happening would be better than having an awkward relationship for acting on it.

    i know exactly what you're feeling, but having endured that for two years in silence i suddenly woke up one day and decided - what the heck, i'm moving on. so i did - i moved away as well, and its all working fine for me - so long as you don't mention his name! which is why i'd love to enter, i'd have a lot of things to rant about, but its all still a bit too fresh.
    good luck, and may you find your way to contentment, be it alone, with your friend, or with another.

    *hugs* I like your contest, and I feel for ya.. I`m going through the same thing right now, only a slightly different scenario. (Not my best friend, rather, the guy one of my friends wants to strangle..) I`d enter but I really don`t have any GOOD unrequited love poems. (:

    read the rules, check your poem and critiques. did you comment on my two poems? did you put the quote in? if you didn't follow the rules, i disqualified you. i hate it when people don't follow the rules and just enter a poem to be in a contest. if you enter a contest, you should read the intro...simple as that.
