I have a friend. He's the brother of a Girl Scout in our troop.
We were talking about our crushes, our sexualitys, me being lesbian, ETC. He said that he'd tell me his crush if I told him mine.
I did.
Then I said, "Okay, now YOU tell me."
"UH!"
"Tell me."
"It's gonna be kinda embarassing for meeeeeee..... You might get weirded ou-"
"JUST TELL MEEEEEH!!!!"
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you. It's somebody we know very VERY well."
"Hmmm....." I then said one of my friends that we both knew.
Then he said, "It's YOU."
I literally made a flabbergasted face and said, "NAHHHHH YOU'RE NOT FOR REAL YOUR KIDDING, BLAH BLAH BLAH"
He looked at me and said, "No, I'm not."
It then got very quiet.
"Wow," I said, "I didn't think anybody would ever like me like that."
He said, "Well, I do."
He looked pretty sad because he knew I already have a crush (Alexis) and that I didn't like him like that, and that I'm not allowed to date until I'm a teenager.
I do like him a lot, but like a friend. I've only met him once before that but we bacame friends rlly fast.
Then he said, "I'll be right back," and I took advantage of this moment and went to spy on my other friends. When I came back, he was just sitting there, with tears in his eyes.
So then I sat next to him and said, "Are you okay??" He said, "Yes" then I asked him whats the matter and he said "you know whats the matter." After me trying to make him happier, I said, "If it makes you feel better, if I could, I would get with you." I didn't mean it, I just wanted to cheer him up.
"But then the relationship wouldn't be real, you know?"
"How come?"
"Because you already like somebody."
"But I still would."
It did cheer him up a lot. In no time, we were being nerds and talking about anime and random sus things on roblox.
Even though he felt better, he did tell me he was afraid of being rejected, like I rejected him right then. I felt really bad, so then he said, "I'm sorry for making you feel bad." I accepted the apology.
I know he did feel better in the end, but I still feel bad about the way I left things.
Can y'all help me??
