I got cheated on and made excuses for the other person

tldr: Fell in love with a girl at 14, I'm 19 now and still in love with her - well, the version of her that she crafted in front of me maybe.
I am a girl. I had just accepted that I would marry a dude someday and live miserably ever after. Then I met her - the new student with the most beautiful eyes and the sweetest voice. We'd walk home from school together every day. She gave me flowers, grew possessive of me, held me and I was smitten. For the next two years, it was obvious we were in love but it never led to anything because of society's and our own internalized fears. We were best friends, I guess.
I want to preface this by saying that I'm not particularly good looking and she is \*very\* good looking, so it was hard for me to believe that she liked me. That insecurity came off as jealousy to her. And I'm very academically inclined so her mother was already sowing seeds of jealousy and comparison in her heart (god I hate that bitch). Some misunderstandings led to a big fight and she stormed off. Didn't see her for a year. Loved her through every day of it. When we met again, she seemed a bit different, maybe posh? Oh well, people change. She started talking to me again but hi

From a neutral view, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage and that’s where it gets complicated That’s what makes this interesting.

this feels more about execution than intent Time will tell.
