Does anyone have some good examples, either manga or anime, of these? The scenario may be romantic, or just comical, depending on the situation and how the two people handle it. Three types I know of:
1. Mistaken Identity: the poor fool thinks he/she is talking to a friend or confidant about a love, not to the actual object of that love. This is often followed by fast talking to try and convince the person that they weren't serious.
2. Slip of the tongue: talking to a crush makes many people nervous and makes it hard to really think about what they say. It's not hard for some people to accidentally admit their feelings without even realizing at first.
3. The main form, fits in what TVTropes calls Right Behind Me. You only think you're alone.
Often this can very often be funny, and in some cases it can also be really sweet/romantic, but it's almost always entertaining. Especially the confesser's reaction to realizing it. I'll take any type of anime or manga.
