This guy was my bestest friend for 3 years and we loved each other but knew that we would never get married as i am from an orthodox family who would be unhappy with me marrying someone from another religion. we were both ok being just friends. but then when he got engaged, he stopped talking to me completely. he just got married yesterday and i am so devastated i dont know what to do.

how could he just stop talking to me? he had promised that we would stay friends forever and then he stopped talking to me. Now he is married and I have too much self-respect to ever talk to him again. but im too depressed and constantly thinking about him and our times together. How can one forget about their past? how do i make myself feel better?
