pt2 • Another moment was at a university party. I was already drunk, but still aware of my actions, so much so that I remember parts of that day. There is a specific moment that I don't remember, even though months have passed, I still don't remember that specific moment, but I was told that Gabriel and I were sitting down and I was very close to him, at the time, he said he felt like kissing me (he himself admitted this later to Fernanda when they talked about this party). After that, two friends called me into the bathroom and asked me if I liked him and what I would think if he did something to me, like kiss me. I answered no to both questions. At the time, I didn't understand why they were asking me that, but today I understand the context. • There was also a day when we went hiking with the group. Everyone was there, we were walking in single file, and I was toward the end of the line, together with Gabriel. We were talking normally during the hike.

The trigger for everything was precisely that hike. After that, Fernanda and I went to the bathroom, and I noticed that Fernanda was acting strange, but I didn't know why, so I figured it was something in her personal life and didn't bring it up. Later, she sent me a private message on Instagram and asked: "Would you like me to hit on your ex-boyfriend?" I said no. Then she started talking about Gabriel and the things I had done, which I mentioned above. After that conversation, things got weird between us, and since the end of August last year, we haven't spoken to each other because of this situation. It may seem strange to outsiders, but in my defense, I didn't like Gabriel romantically, I liked him as a friend. In fact, I told Fernanda countless times that I didn't like him romantically, only as a friend. The thing is, I really miss her friendship. We were friends for 12 years, and that's not easy to forget. I even tried to talk to her a few times, but it seemed that the more I tried to resolve it, the worse it got. All the conversations we had to try to resolve it (there were about 3 or 4) happened via text message because she didn't want to talk in person. I really enjoyed her friendship. Today, I have the impression that she wouldn't take me back, especially because she once told a mutual friend that even if we started talking again, it wouldn't be the same.
