I [17M] have started "liking" a good friend of mine [18F] (let's call her Phoebe) after she opened up to my about her problems when her grandmother died. She was grieving and I was there for her so she could vent and stuff.
From then on we started sharing a lot more and we started to open up more as well.
3 years ago, I fell in love with another close friend of mine. I got rejected and like a dumbass I became depressed and well... I got hurt. Mentally and physically. My barely non-existent self-esteem was gone. I was exhausted. And to be honest, I was ready to give up.
Recently, I've been trying to work on myself. I've been working on my cardio and I've been trying to lose weight (as I have nothing better to do during quarantine). And Phoebe has been encouraging me in any way possible. She has been there for me as I've been for her. She has been trying to help me move on from the previous girl.
I wasn't sure if I liked her or not before, as I wasn't even sure if I was over the previous girl. But now something has flipped and I'm quite sure.
The thing is I don't know how she feels. I'm quite introverted and so is she. She doesn't dare to tell anyone she likes that, well, she likes them. And I... Well, I'm afraid. Like I've said, I've been hurt before. And I'm afraid I'll get hurt again. And maybe this time I will give up...
Please, what do I do?
(English is not my first language so please bear with me)
