I’m not sure I should start this conversation and I’ve been rewriting this a lot lol. But I could use some relating and opinions from fellow internet leftists
Ok so, to keep it really simple: I happened to share a meal with somebody I really liked. I have interacted casually (no flirting) for about a dozen minutes total and we exchanged contact because of shared-interests (not dating)
Now my brain is fried
I’m thinking about her way too much and it gives be bad vibes, she probably has no idea and I can’t imagine the sheer horror of realising that someone is thinking this much about you after so little interaction.
I want to be a well-behaved straight (kinda bi but that’s beyond the point) guy, I’m trying to be an ally to the feminist cause, so, failing this spectacularly at behaving normally in relation to women disgust me. I know I can’t remove the patriarchy from my body but I damn wish I could.
wait they make justified crushes?
I mean, kinda? Like, having a crush on a classmate is typical school experience, and even if you don’t interact much with them you’re in the same room on a day to day basis. Also having a crush on a friend of a friend you spent some time with is totally normal.
My point is, when you have an actual relationship growing it’s totally alright to start having romantic feelings if the person is attractive to you. But getting sick with love with someone I just met once kind of rubs me the wrong way
