Can someone help me how to reply to this message because I'm totally taken aback. She admitted to always being a closet lesbian just last week. I was expecting your typical apology where they admitted to being a rotten person, were having family issues, etc.
This is her message:
Hi Daisy,
This is our last year of HS and I'll probably never see you again. This is my sadness, never seeing you again. I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused. You were the only person I've been mean to. You'll probably going to hate me after I confess this. It's just that I've always liked you the whole time. Yes, what you're reading is correct. I've always had a crush on you. I've always been a lesbian since childhood. I always knew this but only my parents know it. This is a secret among the family. If everyone at school knew this, I'm afraid my reputation will suffer. Once again I'm sorry for back then.
I plan on replying back but I'm still trying to process all this. I don't have any romantic feelings for her nor any girl. I'm straight. While I appreciate her apology, her confession is a shock to me still. How to reply to that?

I didn't have bullies but that's quite a crazy plot twist no lie, you should tell her that you wished that she would've shown it in a healthier way, then proceed by telling her that you are straight and don't swing that way but you do appreciate the closure.
Tell me about it!!! I didn't see that coming. It took me by surprise. Out of the many reasons to bully someone of the same gender, doing it because you like them well that's a weird way of showing you care about them. She didn't seem like a lesbian.
Well looks like it was a doozy for everyone I guess lol
It's pretty wild but it does it at least make you less mad? 😂
I've replied by now thanking her for the closure but told her I'm straight and won't tell anyone at school. We spoke for a bit afterwards. In a way, that was less upsetting and more understandable (people still get discriminated for openly saying they're gay and she was afraid of how others would react at school) than if it had been the typical ''I'm sorry I was an immature kid'' excuse. That excuse is basically doing it for no reason but just for the sake of being a dumb kid.
Well sounds like the problem is solved then
What did you tell her?
I haven't replied yet. I will. I'm still quite shocked, trying to process it all. I really didn't see that coming.
Ok well
