Your 'attachment to the outcome' of this pseudo-relationship is your problem. Before it was even real, you made it real in your head/heart. You basically fooled yourself because, like any drug, it felt good. You were in reality at the heavy flirting stage which means nothing. Flirting is flirting. Flirting is fun. It feels good. Until one of the flirtees assumes it's a relationship. Then everyone has to feel bad because someone must burst the bubble or else both must step into the next stage. You are wrong to be shocked at the kind of girls that exist. The problem wasn't her. It was you. You assumed there was something when there was only flirting.

Flirting can go on forever and be suitable to both parties if that is what they both want. You wanted more than the other could give.

Rejection sucks. There is no way around it. Dust yourself off and move on.

I have to disagree with this. When i flirt with someone,it means i like them and want to proceed to the next level. Why would you flirt with someone when you dont like them?
