Confessed to a woman I liked. Didn't get flat rejected. Still said no but with conditions so I'm gonna call it a victory.

A friend who knew her blabbed to her over messages about somebody having a crush but didn't mention it was me. She responded that almost certainly it was gonna be a flat no. Then she hunted her down, found us, and upon realizing I was the only one said friend was hanging out with who wasn't in a relationship and I was clearly super nervous, it became really obvious from there it was me.
I didn't get a flat no, so that was good. Response I got was basically "I'm into somebody else, but if that doesn't work out I don't see why it couldn't potentially happen if we became better friends."
I'm very happy with that. Even if nothing else ever comes of it, I don't get why people don't like romantic rejection. It's basically an infinite friend glitch.
