Why did she kiss me if she liked someone else?

Author

i’ve had feelings for this girl for a long time. we’re technically “just friends” but honestly it never really felt that simple. there was always tension between us flirting little moments that felt like something more. she’s naturally playful and affectionate and over time i genuinely started believing maybe we were slowly becoming something real.
a couple nights ago we were at a friend’s grill party and i got way too drunk. i was already feeling jealous because she seemed really close with another guy there touching him a lot joking around and it got in my head. i mixed way too much alcohol and was barely conscious by the end of the night.
while i was half passed out she kissed me and whispered in my ear that she loved me. in that moment it felt like everything i’d hoped for was finally real.
then a couple hours later she hooked up with that same guy upstairs.
the next morning she had hickeys on her neck and when i asked if they slept together she casually said yes. later when we talked about it she told me she kissed me because she was trying to “wake me up” from being drunk.
that honestly crushed me. for one moment i thought my feelings were finally mutual then just hours later she was with someone else. i feel stupid for getting my hopes up but it hurts so bad. it’s only been two days and my chest genuinely aches over this.
the worst part is i can’t even fully cut her off because despite everything i still care about her deeply.

before that night had she ever actually talked about wanting something real with you sober and clearly? or was it mostly those flirty in-between moments that kept pulling you back in?

i’ve been the guy clinging to tiny moments too, one kiss, one sentence, one look, convincing myself it meant we finally felt the same thing. finding out hours later she was with someone else would’ve broken me too

but just know your feelings are that way because you still think so highly of her and have her on a pedestal when it is about time to find yourself
