YOU HAD ME AT

I have a squish who reciprocates my platonic love...I hope it's okay if I gush? If not, let me know and I'll delete Long story so collapsing

NO I DID

@Blue Phoenix Ace Size doesn't matter

What about this one?

Yes, definitely. I don't think it's really up to anyone to police labels and identities unless it's something that's logically impossible, like circumgender.

Usually, I only see trauma brought up to invalidate queer identities, like, "oh, so you're only lesbian/ace/trans/aro because you were abused as a kid." This is the first time I've seen trauma brought up as a part of identity.

Eat 10 sheets of paper. I used to eat paper for fun. And also, no one said anything about not being able to put other food on the paper to make the paper taste better. WYR be a sentient potato, or be able to communicate with potatoes?

@breaddd, not sure if you're unaware, but there have actually been a couple other threads discussing differences between a crush and a squish. You can check out the three following threads for some more information: Romantic Attraction What is a Crush? Where is the line between sexual and romantic behaviour?

Both are terrible but I'd pick eyeballs. I've always wanted to be a snail. (sarcasm) WYR take a bath or a shower?

SOMETIMES POP MUSIC MAKES ME WANT TO POP PEOPLE'S EYEBALLS OUT

Speaking of crushes, I had this crush on a polyamorous person who I lost interest in, after finding out they seemed to be somewhat infatuated with me. I tried to reduce contact with them to more of a "friends" level rather than "crush" level, except they ended up rarely talking to me at all, which pissed me off. It's like, the only reason they wanted to talk to me was to see if they could date me, and they weren't really interested in being friends at all. I unfriended them on Facebook, and blocked them on Steam. We haven't interacted with each other for a couple of weeks, and after seeing them flirt with other people, I assumed they moved on. But then, yesterday, I noticed them staring at me through the window between our classrooms. Like, literally, just standing there staring. I aggressively avoided eye contact with them. I'm so frustrated, both with myself and them. I don't want to date my crushes; I want to be friends with them. But then if my crush ends up liking me back, they start acting all weird and the friendship turns into a terrible performance where they try to do ridiculous things to get my approval. I wish there was a way to approach my crushes without risking this kind of situation happening. Maybe I should just not approach my crushes at all.
