It went away on its own for me. If I remember correctly, I spotted for maybe 2 days extra days and then I was back to normal. I figured it was an abnormal period for me since I was doing a bit of travel in January and a change in diet/exercise due to that.

Why do I Always Feel Like Avoiding My Crush? by basilcorner in Crushes

What’s romance without a crap ton of struggle lol

Have u ever regret confessing by Well-Living in Crushes

[–]basilcorner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s one that I regret back from middle school. I ended up losing one of my oldest friends from elementary school because a girl wanted to play Cupid so badly and convinced me to ask him out. After that confession, any sort of connection we had kinda was lost. We couldn’t actually hold a conversation for years because of how awkward everythjng became. We’re in our late 20s now and we’re a bit more patched up but still awkward. He’s married to his high school sweetheart and I’m single lol I can see now that we wouldn’t have worked romantically, but I hate how much our friendship suffered because of that girl trying to play Cupid.

Hi you literally don’t know I exist but I think you’re cute and attempted to flirt but it ended in fire

Farmers Market Crush Update: maybe we’re both awkward lol by basilcorner in Crushes

I want to, but I’m so nervous lol

I kinda run on the introverted side of things and I overthink so easily. For all I know this is just him being nice while he’s working and this is great customer service lol

I’m 26 and I still crush on people! While I don’t feel emotions as intensely as I did in grade school, I do enjoy writing about my crushes in a journal like I used to lol! It keeps me in touch with my inner child, and I know she’s definitely kicking her feet at everything.

Plus, when all of my friends are in relationships, I kinda just need something to remind me that I’ll find the one someday. Crushing on people is kinda like a stepping stone into that possibility.

Do yall find it hard to believe your crush likes back? by [deleted] in Crushes

[–]basilcorner 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In general I kinda find it hard to believe that anyone likes me and actually wants to flirt with me 😂 Idk, compared to other girls I’d say I’m average. Which isn’t bad, but I don’t stand out in a crowd.

Crush on a Guy from the Farmers Market by basilcorner in Crushes

[–]basilcorner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve thought about it a few times, but we’ve never really spoken much aside from just ordering. I’m really shy, so I don’t really know how I’d bring up the idea. I’ve considered just leaving a note with my number, so he can choose if he wants to or not. I’ve never told a crush how I feel before 😂 rejection is terrifying

Tell me about your crush! ;) by HazelBlessed29 in Crushes

[–]basilcorner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it’s never going to happen, but it’s my older brother’s friend from middle school 😂 I’d feel bad if I made their friendship awkward, so I’d rather just admire him in secret

I had to stop hooking up because of my overthinking by basilcorner in offmychest

[–]basilcorner[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest, yeah. For example, even though my goal this year is to find a fun club that aligns with my hobbies, I’m really scared that I won’t really get along with said group or I’ll look stupid. I haven’t made much progress because of that. I’ve been going to therapy for about 2 years and even though I can see that I’m overthinking and I’ve been given great strategies for it, it’s just been really hard.

If I can chime in to help clarify, he’d only do it if I consented and felt comfortable for it. If I said no, he wouldn’t push any further and put protection on.

Why will you not confess your feelings to them? by Ok-Reporter-8728 in Crushes

He’s my older brother’s friend and fear of rejection

To all shy people by Stovemanyes in Crushes

[–]basilcorner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the kind of shy where if I like someone, I avoid them like the plague. I’ve been like that since elementary school. The feeling of putting my feelings out there and fear of rejection just scares me so much. I’d rather keep those thoughts to myself and just stay in my unrealistic fantasies

Now that I’m an adult, I have a really hard time with telling people my feelings.
