ok so this guy i like, the two of us have been talking since last year and we're really close. I thought these feelings were gonna fade in time so i did nothing about it.

But oh no, life had other plans.

this guy, he confessed to me today.

i was walking home at that time and then he suddenly came up to me and said "i have something to tell you," and i was like, "okay, shoot."

he paused and he looked nervous as hell and then he told me "I like you."

i ing froze on the spot and i just didnt know what to do. Now, tbh, i'm SCARED of entering into relationships and im not ready for one.

he's actually the first guy i have ever thought of dating (in the future i guess). I've had crushes before but i've never really thought of pursuing a relationship with them.

i was just so ing nervous that i didn't know how to respond so he immediately told me "Don't worry, you don't have to answer now, i can wait." So of course i told him to wait, cuz im shy as when it comes to my feelings, and i didn't plan on telling him with all these people around.

i asked him "Wow...you'd actually wait? you don't mind?"

and then he responded "Yes I will."

Now, my parents are strict as , like they won't even allow my sister and I to have crushes, so i asked him if i said yes, what would he do, and he told me "I don't know..."

i told him, "You know my parents don't approve of the whole relationship thing, right?"

and i swear to god, he looked serious when he said "Well...how about secretly?"

My sister is attending the same school as i am and her classmates know me so ofc they'll know something is up. Rumors spread like wildfire in my school so i can't let that happen.

(can i get a yay for my situation rn?)

i asked him why did he choose this time to confess, because it was literally so ing random. And he said "Yeah, well...i figured i would never have the chance if i didn't tell you so..."

im scared of entering in a relationship but im also scared that he'll be over me once i am ready for a relationship.

Why must life work this way
