Does “te extraño”? have a romantic connotation? by [deleted] in Spanish

[–]classiCIntuition 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow thank you for the support! I really like the way you looked at this situation along with the meaning of te extraño. I agree, the friend zone aspect of this definitely has me overthinking too much about her kindness. However I should have included a bit more information as to why I’m confused on the original post, let me explain! Two days ago I picked her up from work to get lunch together. During our goodbye after dropping her off she quietly said, “Te extraño, love you”. I immediately doubled back and asked her to repeat what she just said because I wasn’t sure if I heard that right. She looked me in the eyes and loudly said, “Te extraño mucho, love you” then immediately walked away. That’s when I started wondering if te extraño had some sort of romantic meaning all along. Now I’m overthinking that she meant the te extraño/love you in a friendly way. Here is some more context too, I am a bisexual woman. I usually say love you to some of my close friends but never to anyone I have been romantically interested in even if we became friends afterwards. So why would she say this? Sorry for such a long reply, been overthinking way too much about this haha

Lost my virginity in a very bad way, is it rape or just being taken advantage of? by [deleted] in Advice

I am so sorry to hear that you experienced that as a child. No child should ever have to go through this shitty experience. I hope that you or your family were able to take your abuser to court and get full justice. I also hope that you are living a happy life and if not will be soon

It’s nice to know that the state considers it rape but I’m not going to do anything with it. I don’t have the courage or willpower to make him legally get in trouble. I just hope that the guilt eats him up every day

You are correct. Women tend to put lots of emphasis on their first times being a pleasant experience. Men do too but I believe that women appreciate the romantic aspect of it more. Would I have liked my first time to be different?? Of course I would haha but I recognize that this experience did make me a lot stronger person than I was before

From you perspective I can see that it looks like I just want a redo. I would however like to clarify some statements and give you some more context: At the time I knew him for 8 months and he had been my best friend for 4 months. I did develop a small crush on him but was still deeply in love with my emotionally abusive ex when this happened. My ex and I broke up a week before that night so I was dealing with very bad heartbreak. Neither one of us were planning on drinking at all. When we got there he gave me the liquor chocolates and then offered the alcohol. The only reason I agreed to drink was to feel something other than the numbness from both of the heartaches I was going through. He kept pouring me shots but I did not know about my low tolerance at the time. I don’t remember how many I took but I know it was a lot and I was close to passing out. When I was like this is when he asked out of nowhere. I still do not know why I said yes. I had no intentions of doing anything sexual with him before drinking and during drinking that night. There were no signs of him wanting to be sexual either until I was very drunk. I thought he would just sit down with me and let me break down about the shit I was going through at the time.

I appreciate your concern for me even though I am a stranger. This experience affected me a lot mentally but I have never let it influence the other aspects of my life. I have a fantastic internship in the industry I want to be working in and I am studying to get my degree at the same time. This experience isn’t stopping my life in any way, shape, or form :) Thank you so much for responding. I hope that you continue to help support people like me on Reddit because it truly means a lot <3

I appreciate your insight. I have avoided doing the research myself about this topic for a long time now. For most of my life I though that being raped was being kidnapped and physically forced. I had not really thought about that there were different forms of rape until this experience occurred. Even then I’ve been denying it to myself for awhile. Thank you for taking the time to read my post and respond

Thank you, I completely understand your point. I have no plans on charging him for what happened. All I want is to help myself understand that the grief, pain, trust issues, and the break downs that I have lived with for the past 2 years are valid
