So I like this girl… and she likes me back!!

For context, im in jc1 and i have liked this girl from my class (lets call her D) since the start of the year (really, even during her self introduction during class bonding, i found her attractive) And its not js about her looks - her energy, her humour, her interests just seem to exactly match mine. AND BY SOME MIRACLE, we managed to end up as DESKMATES. Anyways for the first few months, we just talked like a normal friend, about studies and sometimes interests etc. I didnt really dare to make my move, cus what if she rejects me? it would be really, really awkward for the next 2 years, and i really dont want to lose her as a friend since we have so much in common But the more we talk, the more i realise we both have so much in common: K-pop, baking and hate towards our GP teacher (story for another time). So fast forward a few months to just last week, I finally decided to shoot my shot - im done hiding, now im confessing, like im born to be 🤪 And there i go, sent a risky text on whatsapp after school one day: Hey D, i know this is going to sound very weird, but i think im falling in love with you - we have so much in common, and i enjoyed every interaction i had with you. If you wish, we can level up our relationship, and if not, i hope we can still be good friends 🙏 Annnnnnd i closed my phone, with heart racing at minimum 160 bpm, checking notifications every 2 minutes. finally, after waiting for 34 WHOLE MINUTES, i got a text back: a yes!!!! No words could describe my emotion back then - first relief, then unimaginable happiness I guess next week will be our first official week as a couple 😁😁😁😁😁😁 and it just all feel so unreal even right now so thats why im sharing it here before ill see her again tmr!!! So moral of the story? Be brave, go for it guys!!! You never know if you dont try 🙃🙃🙃
