<human>: I finally confessed to my new crush how I really felt about him -- it wasn't all jokes and he is crushing on me back!  I joked about crushing on him so I could take it back in case he didn't feel the same...but then I finally told him screw it - whatever he says, it was for real.  I just hope it lasts.

It pisses me off when people act like they've been with a person for a few years and it's the end of the world they won't find anyone again when they break up...well guess the heck what?  Things didn't work out with my friend of nearly TWENTY years!  Now I am crushing on someone new who is crushing on me, too and I picked myself back up...and I thought I'd never get over a guy who I wanted to be the for real father to my future children.

It's a complicated situation with the new guy I'm talking to, but at least we are friends who talk and that is better than a random dude meeting me, pretending he's "interested" then doing the fade away.  I'd rather be friends with a crush than nothing at all and see where it goes from the friendship.

We don't have a proper place to hang out, plus we work a lot and other factors that are in the way, but I'm just glad my new crush is crushing on me and is at least talking to me and not giving up the friendship.

Give me a shortened version of the text
<bot>: I'm not wasting my time over people or someone who doesn't want me anymore.  I found someone who wants me back and we're taking things slow. :)
