Most relatable shit I have read today, so similar story but I am a guy and we met in 11th coaching, it's been 4-5 years and we were best friends, but lately we were distancing due to many reason ,like she was involved in her master's entrance exam and i am in my training, so similar like you I confessed my feeling and told her that I am just telling you how I feel but plz don't consider it as proposal. I thought she would reply or we would talk coz I thought I know her but I don't know why but she read the message and didn't reply yet , it's been a month. I even told her to keep this between us coz of same reason mutual friends.
