I feel like if you don't want to date someone you shouldn't tell them that you like them. I was just texting someone and we somehow got to the conversation of who we liked and he said something which made it really obvious that it was me and he was like 'shit I'm stupid' which made it more obvious. I automatically assumed he wanted to date me because you know.. he liked me. I told him I wasn't ready for a relationship, and his exact text was-"I didn't say I wanted to date you I just said I like you..."
I automatically felt SO embarrassed and I still feel like shit about it. Like, why tell me that you liked me if you didn't want to date me?? I would've preferred to have not known instead of knowing AND feeling like shit. Luckily I have a friend who I was texting the whole time and she helped me with it. She even told me not to text him back because he doesn't deserve me. it probably doesn't seem like that big of a deal to everyone else, but idk just hearing someone say they liked me but didn't want to date me really fucking blows. I'm glad I had that friend there. I definitely don't always feel 100% confident in myself and seeing her said that made my day. and as if it wasn't bad enough, I told this bitch I'd text him later or tomorrow or just whenever and all he said was'ok'. Like I definitely don't think I'm a fucking princess (im basically trash), but idk I feel like he could've at least said bye or ttyl ??
