>finally confessed to friend/con crush and got rejected
>he admits he had feelings for me but ultimately decided to deepen a relationship with a girl he was talking to before we met
>we stay close friends bc I didn't want to look bitter about being turned down (even though I'm salty inside of course)
>he sometimes vents to me about her and I can't help but think to myself "you should've picked me then"
>also can't stop mentally comparing myself to her because I'm so insecure
>they go to a con together
>notice she's next to him wearing a cosplay I planned to do
>feel like the character is ruined for me
>tfw fit and can pull off the costume pretty well but I've lost all motivation
