Some people just don't get that

You can stop liking a person and still have your life changed by them. Some people just don't get that.

Like, I went to a sleepaway camp for 7 years, and met someone who changed my life. Yes, at the time I really liked him. A LOT. But when all was said and done, and I got over the drama and stopped liking him that way, he still had changed my life. Because of my relationship (no, not a relationship relationship, like crush relationship to someone who doesn't know you relationship. grow up people) with him, I began to write. I began to act. Those two things are some of the most important things in my life right now, and I never would have gotten into them if my experience with him hadn't changed my life.

So I respect him still, and I want to be friends. But that doesn't change the fact that he influenced me a lot, and I still look up to him because of it.

    I know exactly how you feel.
    I believe that everybody in my life, whether I know them or not, has affected it in different ways.

    Yeah, not to mention you change a lot of lives too. So always be sure to act in a way so that everyones life is improved because of you. This one girl I met in middle school in particular changed my life in such a way that I will never be the same. We were friends ever since, we met in homeroom and I believe we had each gotten in same homeroom ever since. She got me into photography and theatre and more into reading and all sorts of stuff!
