I went to a small k-8 school where everyone knows everybody. I used to be so shy I wouldn’t even talk in a group. I had this very tight knit group though of 5 people 3 girls and 2 boys for a good 4 years and we got closer and closer every year. I had a crush on one of the boys for literally the whole time but I also really respected him as a person. One year out of the blue the two boys decided they would up and leave the school for like no reason. I didn’t see them for 2 years. Over those years I changed a lot and when our group reunited I talked to the boy I used to like and he told me how much I changed in a good way and how cool i was. It was one of the best moments of my life 1 because I liked him 2 because I respected him and 3 because he is not the one to ever give out compliments.
