Generally speaking, I agree that I should NOT confess my feelings.
But maybe my situation has some grey area. You tell me.
About 4 months ago, we started hanging out. It was never clear if these were dates or not but it had those vibes. We could only see each other every 2-4 weeks bc one of us was going out of town. Never kissed. Only hugged.
I asked her recently if she’s free to hang out and she said YES. But when I mentioned going out for food + drinks, she says she can’t bc she’s spending time with her boyfriend (to my surprise). This is new (just not sure how new).
I genuinely believe that had I made a move earlier, we would be together. There were moments but I chickened out. No one to blame but myself. I feel like her feelings were mutual but maybe I gave her the wrong impression that our hangs were strictly platonic. I was just too chicken shit to do anything.
I would usually move on but it’s been 6+ years since I’ve liked a girl this much and would hate if I missed out on something special for not giving it my all. This isn’t just a random girl I went on dates with.
Given that her relationship is still new, am I an ass if I were to confess my feelings?
