How could I have held onto Skye??

[Willow22]

I am a teen. My problem is this: when I was in my last year of primary school I fell in love with a boy called Skye. He often tried to talk to me and people told me that he fancied me. However when it came to high school I got sent to the local comprehensive and he got sent to a private all boy's school
I was in the depths of despair as I loved him and had wanted to spend the rest of my life with him.How could this have been made possible???
I never saw him again.
My question to you is this: how could I have held onto Skye? What could/should I have done when I first started high school to hold onto him??PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
