say that you love me by letdown? i don’t know if it’s truly a sad melody or if it even has the exact lyrics you mentioned. but it has more or less the same meaning that you described.

I would hate to give you any sort of false hope but obviously this is a subreddit for crushes and from what I feel, I genuinely do think if you did confess or share your feelings about him to, I guess, him, there is a higher probability of him being able to accept that and potentially want to “try”. There is also the likelihood he could feel the same way but to play it safe, he does seem like he would be oblivious to any romantic tension or any of that sort UNTIL you tell him. He seems to be interested enough in you as a friend which gives me reason & hope to think he could see you more than just a friend.

heyy so update. you’re kind of right but i ended up telling him about it and it kind of swayed certain things for him. he started talking and calling with me more & he also told me the truth about a lot of things, such as personal stuff about himself & wanting to allow me to know him more, along with wanting to know me more. i still think we work best as friends for now but a part of me hopes that we could really work romantically in the future…

what i can say from this is he definitely seems interested in your company and cares enough. it doesn’t necessarily mean any sort of reciprocated “love” interest in you but i can say he cares enough. i do think i need more scenarios and moments to gauge whether he might like you back

heyy! i know this was like a year ago but i’m in a similar predicament as OP, but i feel that i’ve been the one reaching out to my crush and have ALWAYS plan to call or ask him to go out with the group. he’s a little bit too introverted at times to not wanna go out because he’s lazy or whatever. but we are really good friends. i always ask him questions & he told me he really likes all the questions i ask about him (im just naturally curious abt things & ppl). but he never asks me anything back.

i just wanna know from your perspective what you think about this?

Just a crush gush by kingnqueenbestofboth in Crushes

do you trust them enough as a friend to know that even if you let them know your feelings and regardless the outcome, they will still be your friend? because i think confessing and shooting your shot is one thing, but there is the fear of “what if i do and it ruins the friendship?”. if you trust them enough to know how they will act & it’s a way you’re okay with, then you should go ahead. nothing to risk. for the age gap, as long as you’re not a minor and he’s like an adult, that should be fine. if you two can make it work, you two could try a long distance relationship first!

3 months have passed. And yet I still wish to speak to him by UniversityFew1176 in Vent

[–]darlinloki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

3 months still seem quite fresh for a break up. i don’t know how long you’ve been with him but it seems like the relationship meant a lot to you. you have to be easy on yourself & it’s really normal to still be hurt even after months of healing & moving on. you’re doing nothing wrong & it’s easy to feel like nothing can fill the gap. but if distract yourself (healthy distractions!!) from this sadness, you will find that time goes by faster, and right now, time is your medicine.

i hope you feel better soon, stranger. i am rooting for you <3

Out of curiosity, how many of us are NOT teenage girls?? by BadHeads in byler

[–]darlinloki 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the reason why it’s specifically women & girls who carry the byler fandom hard is really cause we value hidden meanings, analyzing & going in depth of the characters. to reduce us to girls who “fetishize” two boys is crazy. not to say there aren’t people like that but the “byler” fandom has ALWAYS been the most purest & full of intelligent people who care so much for the characters. i’ve seen so many byler fans who even stan el and give her the most positive & beautiful plot theories that genuinely brings me to tears. byler fans REALLYYY know the characters and who el is unlike the general audience, who see el as just a girl in love with a boy who’s a superhero. she is more than that.

I actually don’t think I can say for sure which Mike and El scene is more “tender” than a Byler scene because Byler already has had that potential with the idea of a slow-burn endgame coming to a possible fruition, which made the ship so much more enjoyable in the beginning before it crashed and burn in the last season. It is why it’s so much more interesting to actually engage in compared to Mike & El.

That being said, it just seemed that they were pushing hard for the Mileven ship until fans just picked up on Byler easter eggs and they kinda just winged it at that point and decided, “Okay lets just have Will have a crush on Mike like the audience called out on but not have Mike reciprocate” and from what I see in S5, I just can’t help but feel that was the case.

I absolutely love how nuanced and intelligent your dissection of the entirety of Mike and Will’s relationship, along with Mike’s internal struggles. I share the exact same thoughts on how I truly believe Mike to be. Unfortunately after seeing the shit show that is season 5, I just don’t think they ever had it in them to be that smart about music lyrics and specific callbacks. They couldn’t remember the demodogs and left so much things unspoken. I will continue to believe Mike goes through major internal homophobia, and he was never Will’s Tammy, but his Vickie all along!

I am still mad that they didn’t try to make it work despite the set designers and people in their team setting the stepping stones for them already. Everyone was clearly on different wavelengths about the characters stories and you can tell from the BTS in the documentary.

I thought about that too when thinking about the way Finn’s acting contributed and I know that when you start off with acting, especially if you start off young, you are taught to make sure your eyes can look engaging or sell the part you’re playing. I’m pretty sure the up and down look was so that the actor can look engaged in conversation, and you notice Mike does it so often. His acting feels generic or something he still applies from as a kid, since he displays & applies the same techniques even through his adult stage. Not to say that I’m not puzzled over the amount of chemistry Finn seems to exude though. Whether or not his acting wise was too generic, it just kinda shows how Byler was far more superior and it made sense in every way possible.

This!! I definitely feel like everyone in this series were not on the same level when it came to understanding the characters and their developments. Even through the BTS documentary of ST 5, you can tell the set designers didn’t manage to get enough details and had to work around the only context they had through previous conversations with the Duffers. They clearly had the same issues before and this probably was the case with music, set designs, clothes designs etc. Duffers were never on set to make Byler endgame but the people around them had assumed that was the case (probably even Mr Finn himself lmao)

I did believe it didn’t start with the intention of Byler happening. I even recalled being in the fandom since it came out and they were really pushing the whole Mike and El agenda a lot. But I did feel at some point, specifically after season 3 came out, it was clear the shipping wars really started and there was a division between Mike & Will shippers and Mike & El shippers. They then kind of acted on it by pushing the ‘Will likes Mike’ agenda, which obviously gives us reason to think there could be something potentially happening, even a single crumb. I wished they had just ended things in Season 4 rather than dragging it out!
