Hi, I've read the FF and it's a really interesting one and rather a pity that you would allow someone else's dastardly act to determine what you want to do...
I haven't read 'A lot like love" or the copy that you mentioned but I can appreciate it can be irritating to find someone else has copied it but given the advantage of a few years under my belt, a piece of unsolicited (lol) advice - it's something that happens in life everywhere!! The most common being an office where your boss / colleagues steal and take credit for your ideas, but you've got to take it in your stride and move on!
If I were you, I would take this as an immense compliment for your writing skills - someone deems it worthy of copying!! If one was to give up something important to oneself, every time someone copied / imitated / intimidated or sabotaged it, there would be little to do / live for!
It's for you to decide whether you would deem the person and his/her act inconsequential and ignore it or give it more importance than it merits and allow it to impact what you enjoy doing! You can choose to exercise the right to make your own choices or allow someone else to dictate what you choose to do...
Apologies, if it sounded like a sermon, but I just think it's such a pity that you stopped writing because of someone else ... but whatever you do decide, it is, of course, your decision and the right to choose remains yours..
Wish you all the best!
