I've developed a pretty big crush on a girl in my friend group over the last few weeks. I was going to just keep my feelings to myself because it could really make the group dynamic awkward if I made a move and got rejected, but last night after we were done hanging out and we'd all gone home for the night I was just the right amount of drunk and in love to decide to go ahead and let her know how I felt.
I decided to go ahead and shoot her a text. In my drunken state, I guess I decided that it wouldn't be enough to just ask her out like a normal person. Instead I felt the need to compose a long AF wall of text telling her all about how my feelings for her had evolved over the time I'd known her and I'd now come to realize that she's the coolest girl in the world and I really just need to be with her forever. I hit send and then passed out for the night.
When I got up a bit ago, I couldn't find the message in my texts. My first thought was "well, I was drunk enough to maybe not really remember what happened. Maybe I never hit send and deleted the whole thing. Good news, crisis averted." Well then I popped open our group's GroupMe chat to check on something from the last night's discussion...and there my message was, posted in our group chat for all to see.
So at this point, I'm trying to decide whether I should a) cut my losses and never show my face with this group of friends again, b) try to play it off as some sort of ill-conceived drunken joke, c) just own it and roll with it, or d) some other option. Is there any way to turn this around, or am I pretty much finished with this girl (and probably the whole friend group as well)?
