So... One of my friends and I both work for the school magazine, along with this other guy. Let's call him Colin, as in 2 days into college.
We were both convinced he likes my friend, bc we see him everywhere and he got her a gift for her birthday and all which is adorable!
Soo later that day I decided to go ask Colin about it since my friend was busy. I wanted to know more than she did tbh. He smiled and said "No."
I scanned his facial features. Colin was telling the truth. As per usual, I'm dumb. "I'm sorry, let's forget about this, please?"
He was chill the WHOLE TIME. "Nah, it's cool. It's understandable why you'd think that."
We parted ways but I kept thinking. I really am dumb. I used to be friends with this one guy in my class but somehow managed to find a reason to break it off (things were fine, I swear!) bc people kept thinking something's up with us.
So after convincing the world and subtle ignoring him, we officially (unofficially, but actually) maintained our stance as classmates who just so happen to have way too much in common.
But after seeing how chill Colin was with my own such assumption, I felt absolutely dumb. I'm a complete hypocrite to my own beliefs an keep tryna justify them but like yeahhh whats my plan of action now?
And ik for a fact there's absolutely 0 hard feelings bc he even texted me later that day and was quite friendly!
Well that was an unexpected life lesson right there for me.
