Hi spats1996,
I think she was lying to herself that you were just a friend. I could be wrong, but I believe she must have known on some level that you liked her romantically. After a year you kind of have a clue, you know?
Then she was blindsided by the lie/confession. But she is uncomfortable NOT because you lied, but because now she has to admit to herself that you liked her all along. That she in fact lied to herself “Oh, he’s just a friend”.
It’s hard because you’re graduating. Unless you would see her everyday, gently drop her, let it go, and chalk it up to a learning experience.
Best,
Inky
