How to Make Friends in High School

Here we go. This is another question someone asked us. About 2 months ago, I began texting a girl who goes to my school. She's beautiful. I had a hard time getting the nerve to talk to her at school, but I eventually texted her and asked her out. She said no, saying that she didn't feel the same way. I was crushed because I thought we were going really well and have a lot in common, but I figured that I should remain friendly because I don't want to be rude and cut her out because it's a small school and I see her frequently. We still text on Snapchat frequently. I thought I was moving on, but we just had a school dance several days ago and she looked amazing, and I realized that I was not over her. I don't know what to do. It feels like I don't want to move on. Is there any advice that you have for me? This is a move-on question. How do you move on from somebody?

Jason, you've done it like 18 times.

Probably, probably just get into somebody else. Really? Yeah, find someone else, even if they're not as good as the person that you liked. You'll find better qualities.
