I'm not great with this stuff, so bear with me… but some serious advice would be sERIously great. And perhaps a good reference if you're a creative author who wants a dopey character (If ya know what I mean…)
HeLP... I think I like someone
JUST BE NICE
AND it's so cliche but BE YOURSELF
This entire chat is cliche, I know, BUT HOW
Like, seriously. I like this someone so much my face dribbles to the floor
I RELATE????
just like
be nice
like that's it
I have no more advice
just be a nice person
actually wait I have more advice, pls hold
okAy
Well, there's a slight triangle in this situation… and it's kiLLing me
OKAY
so
wanna know a thing
crushes actually do not matter in the long run
they are agonizing when you have them (at least to me… I'm speaking from my own experience)
you will overthink all your actions and everything you do and you will want to impress them
you will want to talk to them all the time
and it will be wonderful.
and it will suck.
But no matter how wonderful or terrible or both or neither the crush is- in the long run, it prob won't matter. You will get over it. The world will not end.
But in the meantime- enjoy it? It's kinda fun to like someone lol
and if you ever wanna talk about this wonderful human who's caught your eye….
Come to the british friend chat and talk about your crush sometime
we do that a lot
you may even be added to our IRL ships…. we have a trinity rn but we are open to having more
Well, there's a slight triangle in this situation… and it's kiLLing me
CRAP IRL LOVE TRIANGLES ARE THE WORST
I WAS IN 2 AT THE END OF MY SOPHOMORE YEAR
…. don't ask lol
it was a mess
(or do ask)
((but I may not tell you))
(((we'll have to see)))
Kk. It's all a mess, I k n o w.
See, I've ReAaALLy liked this guy for-
.
.
.
Crap-
… 7 years? At least.
But I didn't really have the… hots? Digs? Idk, for him until a bit over a year ago… so it's been a long, agonizing run…
wow 7 years is a long time
can't relate
I didn't even have my first crush until 4 years ago (maybe only 3? and like…. they usually only really last 3 months AT THE MOST)
but like
I get what you're saying
I hear you
Fact: If it lasts longer than two months, it is not a crush, it's falling in love
Just be your fabulous little self! It'll sort itself out from there :)
EUugh. I wish it only lasted three months. Seriously. I don't want to come across as obsessive- or creepy, but it jUst… idk, messes a person up. I'm scared pantless to tell anyone in my daily life, and normally not great at telling strangers in fear of judgement, but… I just can't do the ups and downs anymore
I'm myself TOO much, lol.
I'm too terrified to explain anything
I feel the same about Jensen Ackles
But in all seriousness, you should try and tell him. (I know that could very well be impossible but I think you would be a lot happier if you told)
Dude
it's okay
having a crush can be scary
and it's hard to be vulnerable (and telling anyone about a crush puts you in a position of vulnerability)
you don't have to tell anyone anything if you don't want to
I feel the same about Jensen Ackles
But in all seriousness, you should try and tell him. (I know that could very well be impossible but I think you would be a lot happier if you told)
Honestly yeah?
this one time
I thought I had a crush on my best friend (let's call him just M)
and I told M "okay time to get over my crush on you"
and bam it was gone
(to be fair that "crush" literally lasted maybe 2 weeks and I was bored and an emotional wreck otherwise…. so maybe not the best example)
but like
the other crushes I've had too
it's easier to get over them if you tell them
and hey if they like you back then you get a bf
It would make so much more sense… but I'm just, physically unable.
I know if he said no, I'd eventually get over it, but the fact that I also understand that it would hurt like hell..
Right, if you're not comfortable telling anyone, than don't! It's ok to have a crush, and it's ok to just let it play out.
LIKE beING BIT BY A BROWN RECLUSE
(The right metaphor)
Yeah… I wanna go inbetween a bit
It would make so much more sense… but I'm just, physically unable.
I know if he said no, I'd eventually get over it, but the fact that I also understand that it would hurt like hell..
I wish I could tell you it wouldn't
but it will
and I know exactly how you feel
I'm gonna tell my crush that I like her
and every time I think about it I actually get terrified and my heart races
but I also need to do it
bc I can't go to college several states away and not have her know
(I hope you don't have an ultimatum like that)
Between going up to him, slapping him across the face with a fracking rose and shrieking, "I REALLY LIKE YOUR FACE, aND YOUR BRAIN. RECIPROCATE?" and what I'm doing now
do the first one
I'm sorry
I wanna see that
just do it
(or maybe don't listen to me rn lol)
That's actually why I'm bringing this up now…
but like
If you do tell him
I'm rooting for you
and also
do it in person
it's so much scarier
but it's also a lot braver
and then you can read their reaction and also they can't ghost you or avoid the conversation
Y O U - D E S E R V E - C L O S U R E
He'll be moving a solid state away soon, and I won't really be able to see him… for a long time. But not long enough, if that I completely screw things up-…
(I would probably just slap him with a book full self-written sappy love poems… a rose may cut him)
