Crush confessions can be one of the most anticipated parts of a series.
After waiting patiently, all you want is for that one character to finally admit to the other how they feel.

More often than not, your ship eventually ends up riding happily into the sunset, but putting yourself out there is always a risk that may not have the outcome you're hoping for.
We've created a slideshow of 13 confessions of love that ended in rejection.
1. Winn's confession to Kara - Supergirl
The moment Kara pulled away from Winn's kiss, her face said everything we needed to know. It was kind of hard not to feel bad for Winn considering how head over heels he was for his best friend, but the two are better off as just that.
2. "Sebastian's" confession to Clary - Shadowhunters
This was all types of horrible. Honestly, we kind of wish Shadowhunters had left this part of the story out. But, Clary's brother disguised himself as Sebastian and kissed Clary. It was weird, and we're glad that she didn't want to be romantically involved with either Sebastian or her brother.
3. George's confession to Meredith - Grey's Anatomy
Right after George confessed his love for Meredith, she kisses him and they sleep together. But the rejection actually comes in the middle of sex when she starts crying since she knows she doesn't have feelings for George. This scene was equal parts cringe-worthy and heartbreaking.
4. Chase's confession to Karolina - Marvel's Runaways
Karolina didn't outright reject Chase, more like she just refused to be around him after he kissed her. As it turns out, Nico was the one she wanted to be with all along.
5. Bloom's confession to Reynolds - New Amsterdam
This one's a bit complicated. Reynolds originally rejected Bloom because when she confessed her feelings, he said that he wanted to marry a black woman. However, the two had been sleeping together, and he tries to kiss her later on, but she rejects him right back.
6. Eleanor's confession to Chidi - The Good Place
Although Eleanor fell for Chidi in every reboot we've seen, decision's aren't Chidi's strong suit so there were some occasions where he didn't think he felt the same way. And considering that they're soulmates, it was painful to watch.
