Feelings I had for my classmate were obviously one-sided (pretty sure of it), so I made a reasonable decision to never confess to not make things awkward. In a few years since we graduated I finally moved on, although I never loved anyone this much since.

Yet all this time I had a desire to tell her about them. I would definitely want to know if someone loved me this much ever. Would she? I don’t know. I don’t even know if she is in a relationship right now or not.

I would really want to cite some scientific study that “Over 80% of girls have their self-confidence lifted after being told they were secretly admired (p<0.05)”, but can’t find one.

    Ghosting someone is never an ethical choice and you know it, but I guess the level of “creepiness” depends on wording.

    like bro you LOVED me without my input?

    Isn’t that… The backbone of all classical literature?

    You’re doing it for you not for her and that’s absolutely not love, it’s probably mental illness

    My thought process was explained in full and honestly. You have a right to suspect me lying, but why would I?
