<human>: Give me a shortened version of the text

OK in high school there was this girl I liked that I wanted to ask to our winter formal with the intent of dating her afterward. So I decided to ask her by using this inside joke we had with a teddy bear. So I went to build a bear because (surprisingly) I was having difficulty finding a normal looking teddy bear to ask her. So grudgingly I go to build a bear looking super out of place feeling really awkward just trying to buy a damn bear. So the next school day I wait before classes when we usually talk to ask her, and everyone is asking me "what I have in the bag?" So I show them and every one says good luck and stuff when my "friend" Vince walks up and sees that I was going to ask her out. So later I see him talking on the phone I immediately think he might be calling her, but then I think that's ridiculous and calm myself down. Little did I know she was sick that day. And the next day. And the next. So for three days I sit there in the morning with that bag waiting for her. Then one day I see her at lunch and present her with the bear and everything asking her. WELLLL it turns out he did call her that morning. Leaving me embarrassed in front of all of our friends. And as a bonus didn't tell me that he all ready asked her,  leaving me day after day waiting for her and embarrass myself in font of everyone. So when I tell people about this I have no trouble with them believing me, but they do go "well he did ask her first and that's all that matter" Or "you gotta give him props for being quick" that's bullshit he could have told me and not left me to feel the worst rejection of my life! 

Any way Reddit what is the worst thing that others don't think was that bad that happened to you?
