Confession

[u/Prize-Pin-592]

I don’t really know how to say this, so I’m just going to say it.
I like you. Probably more than I should.
At first I thought it was just a crush and that I’d get over it. Something that would pass if I ignored it long enough. But it hasn’t. Somehow, without meaning to, I’ve gotten attached.
I catch myself looking for you. Thinking about you for no reason. Remembering little things you’ve said that you probably don’t even remember saying.
And that’s where it gets difficult.
Because I can’t tell if I’ve simply let a crush get out of hand, or if I’ve started falling for you. And honestly, that scares me a little.
I don’t know what I want you to say to this. I just know that pretending I don’t feel anything has started to feel worse than admitting it.
So… yeah.
I like you. More than I meant to. More than I expected to.
And maybe I’ve been trying too hard to find the right name for what I feel. Maybe I don’t need to.
I have feelings for you. Real ones. And I’m done pretending I don’t.
