So I made this gift for my crush. And it wasn’t some stupid drawing or something I threw together. It was a whole chest. It had good detail and it was painted and everything. It was designed after the one from his favorite game. It actually opened, and I filled it with his favorite snacks and candies. I spent more than a week making it too.

Anyways, I put it in his locker back in February with solid excuses for why i was giving it to him other than "because I like him." He kept it in his locker since feb. It was kind of shoved in there but atleast he kept it. It was definitely bulky tho and took up quite a lot of locker space. (Mind you his locker is practically empty)

Today as I was walking past his locker, I glanced over and noticed it wasnt there anymore. There were only two possibilities. either he took it home, or he threw it out. I went to the nearest trash can and sure enough found it at the bottom. (There was just papers in there so it wasnt gross).

I am absolutely crushed. I put SO much effort and time into making that for him and he just tossed it. I know it was big and probably annoying to keep, but it still hurts so much.

I should probably add that before the chest, I made him three drawings of his favorite show. Actually good drawings. Not some stupid doodles. He kept those. I’m guessing they were just easier to keep because they dont take up that much space. he doesn't seem like a very sentimental person so maybe that's it?

I put so much effort into that chest for him, and seeing it thrown away like that really really hurts. I have a literal put in my stomach. Its not just that he threw it away. It hurts because it feels like rejection. If he actually cared for me in the slightest he mightve kept it. Idek what to think or how to process my emotions.

It won't let me add a picture of the chest so ig you just gotta use imagination on that one. Or, If you want to see it, comment and ill dm you images.
