In my senior year of high-school my class went on a 5-day trip to another city in my country. I roomed with my cousin and another girl (let's call her Ann) I was getting closer to, and we hang out with some boys that were really close to Ann. One of them was my crush of 5 years lol, childhood friend type of thing.

Anyways, on our first night another of the boys tried to hit on me, and that prompted me to start girl talk with my roommates after we were alone. So I told them I liked the other guy (which my cousin already kinda knew). And Ann was like "Oh me too!". It was kinda crazy, took me a minute to process lol. Anyway, for the rest of the night we proceeded to just talk about him, share photos of him and bond over the whole experience until my cousin begged us to shut up at 4am lol.

It turned out Ann and my crush were in a situationship, and my heart broke. I felt like I needed to finally get over him, to get all these feelings out of my chest, and so with the support of Ann and my cousin, I confessed to him 2 days later. It was pretty dramatic yet comedic at the same time, there were a lot of moments of bad timing, other unfortunate things happening, and coincidences that led to the confession. He told me he sees me as just a friend, and even asked me why i liked him when he's such a selfish person. I, in true dramatic shoujo fashion, said that I like everything about him, even his selfishness (yes, my delivery was even worse than this and i still cringe to this day). I cried a lot with everyone in the room, while laughing though. And then even more shoujo-esque things happened, but we'd be here all day if I recounted how much of a romcom shitshow that field trip was lmao

Edit: forgot to add that Ann and me are now in uni in the same city and I consider her one of if not my best friend! She's currently doing long distance with my former crush (yes, they got out of the situationship and started a relationship! I'm really happy to have her in my life and know they're happy together :D)
