<human>: Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?

So here is the situation: I am normally a very logical person but in recent months, I seem to have lost the ability to control my emotions with the same strength that I used to be able to. The reason for this recent development is, well, a girl that I have fallen in love with. But here is the hard part: she is currently dating my former best friend. But when they started dating, she did not know my feelings for her which were, at the time nothing more than a heavy crush. I then made the regrettable decision to make my feelings for her known in hopes to shunt their relationship before it went anywhere. But that didn't work. and before anyone starts trying to call me a bad person, he made his move on her with full knowledge of my feelings for her. Hence the former. Oh, and another thing: he made his move on her 2 DAYS after her ex broke up with her. I was going to wait for at least a month before I started dropping hints or anything like that, you know, to give her some time. And I feel betrayed by him an I think I am right in doin so. But over the past 2 months, that crush that I had has amplified and grown into something more powerful than any emotion that I have ever experienced before. And the fact that, due to other circumstances, my former best friend currently lives in my basement. So this girl that I am in love with; she is over at my house almost every day. I know that doesn't help any, but he doesn't have anywhere else to go. Even if he did betray me, I am not going to kick him out onto the street. So after much turmoil and emotional torment, I had a moment of clarity and have come up with the solution of: I must kill the hope that she will ever love me in the same way that I love her. But see, I don't know how to do that. So... How does one go about killing hope?
<bot>: I'm in love with a girl who is a very close friend of mine and need to know how to kill the hope that we will ever be together.
