People make mistakes and people also forgive. It takes time and effort, but they do. She's hurt and probably really embarrassed which takes some time to get over. The best thing you can do is apologise, say that you understand what you did and how wrong it was, then try and give her a little space. Don't avoid or ignore her, just don't annoy her by constantly saying how sorry you are because that'll just make her angrier.

I've had fall outs with my closest friends before and regardless of what happened, I cared about them too much to let them go forever. In some cases it took a lot of time to feel like I could trust them again, and for some I don't have the same relationship with them as I did before. I used to be so close to one girl and now, even though we are still close, there's something different between us which isn't as great as it was before. This might be the consequence of your actions.

At least you can take something from this experience. Trust is something that takes time to build up and can be destroyed in minutes. It's better to stop an urge to tell someone something if it means keeping someones trust in you. Maybe next time just think before you speak. And also just think about how you would feel if you were in her position, and think about what you would want her to do for you to make up for that. That might give you ideas on what to say to her.

she is right how ever the game you were playing you shouldn't have gone that far if i was her i wouldn't forgive i mean.. put yourself in her place you would have felt disappointed coz you lost a big secret and your friend's trust so i think that you should let her pick your punishment that is all i could say
hope it helps!
