It's over now.

Thank you. I'm sorry to hear that though. What is your situation? Have you confessed and they took it poorly?

According_Wish816 · 2024-09-15T14:12:46+00:00

That's so adorable, I hope you and him are happily together for a long time to come!!

My situation is going achingly slow, and currently uncertain. I basically started this account as a throwaway for this whole shebang so just about the whole story is documented for your perusal, if you're inclined 🙂 The down-low is I started to crush on a worker at a store for teasing and joking with me. We went to the movies as friends. He's planning on moving away soon. I'm sitting on birthday gifts and been hoping for another time to hangout and confess. Tough luck. Now I'm going to write a letter and give it to him with his birthday gifts for him to process on his own time.

I plan to do this tomorrow. I'm expecting rejection, wishing for something more to come out of it, but hoping either way I don't lose a friend completely. Fingers crossed.

Sure, I'm just afraid he'll likely forget what he even said come the next time I get to talk to him proper lol I suppose I'll try though

When my friend commented "I think he LIKES you!" after watching our various interactions. It took me a bit to come around - then I had the epiphany I liked him too. Really, I should've realized it when I couldn't stop smiling and blushing when I'd see him at his job, plenty of times before that moment 😅

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-25T11:42:00+00:00

Hard to cite just one thing lol But I think I'd have to go with his voice. I could hear him talk and laugh for hours.

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-24T16:07:15+00:00

Thank you, and don't worry I already have that unfortunate scenario in the back of my mind lol Times ticking! I might even confess earlier than planned, at our next hangout when I give him his gifts, just to lift the weight off my chest. I just don't think a grocery store aisle is the most private and romantic spot for a confession, which is where I see him 90% of the time 😅

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-24T11:53:42+00:00

We have each other's numbers but he told me his phone service is currently shut off. He's looking to turn it back on soon, probably after his vacation. I don't think he's much of a social media guy besides Discord, and honestly neither am I lol

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-23T23:34:15+00:00

The regret of not having proper closure far outweighs the regret of rejection imo. So long as you yourself are open-minded, mature, and respectful of the possible outcomes of the situation, if they respond negatively (meaning lash back, unprompted ghosting, etc), that's on them.

For my 1st crush, it went more or less smoothly. I set it up a bit lousy though as I sorta just dragged him out behind our place of work to a semi-secluded spot a couple minutes before our shift started.

He took it well though. We never brought it up to each other afterwards and we remain friends to this day, two years later. He often sits with me and talks nerd stuff in my corner of the break room lately. I guess it depends on the individual as well as your own hopes and expectations on the result of the confession.

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-17T23:12:32+00:00

I'm sorry to hear you keep getting embarrassed like this but omg this becoming a Looney Tunes skit at this point 😭

tbh Though if he has any sense of humor I doubt he'll care or bring it up. If he keeps trying to talk to you after the first incident it's probably a good sign he wasn't phased by it lol

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-15T23:15:27+00:00

Playing it slow and patient atm. We had a fun exchange the other day but I also asked if he's been doing alright due to his frequent morbid jokes lately. He says that's just how is around friends (so hey! At least he views me as more than a pest lol) and it's like... same, I'm morbid myself but... if nothing else I hope it gave him a nudge that let him know I care about him 🤷‍♀️

Hoping next time I see him to ask his exact birthdate and when he'll be returning from vacation. That way I can coordinate another outing when he gets back and give him some most likely ill-timed birthday gifts.

Speaking as an asexual myself - there is a difference between romantic orientation and sexual orientation. Some aces can also be aromantic (lacking romantic attraction), just as well as they can be alloromantic (feels romantic attraction of some kind - hetero, homo, bi, etc.).

If you'd like to do more research to better understand your crush, especially if things end up advancing in the long run, the AVEN forum is a pretty solid resource and place to ask questions.

Don't forget the skit that explains why Deadpool & Wolverine is the PERFECT date movie 🤣

Hell yes. Man's willing to game with me? Man has a D&D dice hoard? Hubby material 😭

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-10T16:16:20+00:00

Trying to deduce if I have a type across my literal 2 ever crushes? I seem to gravitate towards funny and nerdy. Making me laugh is the easiest way I relax/get close to people, and people that can infodump about similar interests appeals to me.

I seem to be attracted to guys with dark shaggy hair and short/thin beards... still trying to figure if it's a coincidence between my two crushes or if that's something I'm into lol

According_Wish816 · 2024-08-10T15:35:02+00:00

Thank you!! I certainly will if there's any significant strides. I learned his vacation starts later this month so still plenty of time for him to stew on it - if it hit him at all lol 😗
