At school
you act like you don't know me.
Out of school
I'm your best friend.
At school
you don't like me.
Out of school
you love me.
In school
you won't hug me.
Out of school
you can't let go.
In school
I want to break up for good.
Out of school
I can't help but hope that
you
us
something
anything
will change.

Thanks for the advice! You guys really helped. I told him how I felt and he said he was sorry. Now he'll talk to me at school and give me hugs! Thanks so much!

Isn&#039;t it ironic? We ignore the ones who adore us, adore the ones who ignore us, love the ones who hurt us, and hurt the ones that love us.

I know how this is. I told mine how I felt and we went our seperate ways. Try talking to him, telling him how it feels.
