hi, my name is ariya, and i'm 16 years or older in high school. so, my best friend (opposite sex) has a crush on this girl, who likes him back. they aren't dating or anything, and never will, and only 3 people know about their feelings. i used to like him, but i don't anymore and he knows about it too. i don't have feelings/like him in that way (i LOVE him as a friend) b i cant help b feel a pit in my stomach when he talks about her, feel sad about it, and feel like im not pretty enough and I don't know why. I don't even have romantic feelings towards him, but i feel a bit sad for no reason and i don't know why. any advice please?

Thats just natural attachment and the need/want to be loved. All of this can have an unconscious aspect, so it doesnt matter that you do not feel conscious love towards him.
When I broke up with my ex, and stayed with her friends after, I did not have any active love feelings towards her, yet it was very painful to hear her talk about a guy that she became interested in. Your entire being can tell your something u can neither explain nor articulate. Every person is too complicated to know themselves completely, and we all contain wisdom that we cannot comprehend;)

That makes sense and really does comfort me a little. I felt so guilty for feeling this way, but this makes me feel so much better
