This is a heavily compressed version of the story bc of the character limit but there is this girl that I really like and I let her know irl that I’d liked her for a while and when I left we texted first a bit and she said she thought I was cute……

Shoot your shot with her, just text her and ask her out. If she doesn’t like you now, she won’t like you when you’re “better”

…but that was the last time that I talked to her and it’s been months now and I don’t wanna hit her up because I want to work on myself physically and mentally first but I want to ask women like was this messed up to do, to have our last conversation be my confession of feelings then not talk to her at all because I want to be the best version of myself since she deserves nothing less?

When you say you didn’t talk to her at all after your confession of feelings, do you mean that you ignored messages from her after that, or was it more like the conversation reached a natural stopping point and you didn’t pick it back up?

We don’t really text like at all so it was a natural end (if she texted me I would never ignore her)

Oh, then that’s not messed up! But I will say, using a crush as motivation to improve on something can be a double-edged sword, because it’s entirely possible to go through a lot of changes “for them” only to find out those changes didn’t really mean as much to them as they did to you. So ideally, you want to do things for yourself even if you hope someone else will like them as well.
