For a bit of context we were best friends for around 6 months. Really close, we shared our deepest thoughts only to each other. We saw each other basically every day. I started having feelings on her since around a month and a half, and it got to the point where I couldn't keep it anymore. I told her one night we were alone. She said she couldn't give an answer, but the tone showed rejection, which I dont mind as I told her that day that I really value and appreciate our friendship. She did assure me that we should still be really good friends. The worst part (and the one that is stressing me out) is the fear that our friendship won't come back. Its been almost a week and she has felt more distant, talks way less with me and more with others, and avoids looking at me to the point where people in our circle have asked me if anything is wrong. Will this get better as time goes on?
tldr: confessed to my best friend and things aren't going so well
