A little backstory, when I was still talking to my crush, we’ll call her Lily, I was getting close to her friend group and her best friend. Me and this friend hit it off really well, we had a lot in common and if we met under different circumstances I think I would’ve went for her. However, 2 months go by and I decide to confess to Lily, I get the usual rejection phrases, it’s not you it’s me, I want to focus on school etc. I can’t say I wasn’t expecting this response. This is where things get complicated, me and Lily never had any classes together but me and her best friend did. We even sat together one of them. I know for a fact she knows me and my confession but she never brought it up. I was still getting over Lily at this time and I think part of the reason I fell for her best friend is because I was looking for someone to fill in the empty space in my heart. I don’t know whether these feelings are real or not but I can’t stop myself from trying to start a relationship with      her. We’ve hung out a few times alone and she’s kind of my go to person atm she also doesn’t seem to mind my company. My main concern is that I might seem like I’m just leading her on. So AITA?
