I do this bit all the time
It is truly just funny & entertaining to me.
Anyone i have a tad bit of a crush on… automatically I will start referring to them as my boy/girlfriend…. …And it has manifested many a situationship and hookup and people loving the idea of me but it has not manifested me an actual boyfriend or girlfriend…. yet.
When you accidentally vibe with s.o a bit too hard, the undercurrents about to break the surface, and then it ends because it has to and actually neither would be able to pull through with it for their own reasons. The unresolved tension stays with you though. Only kinda recommend, too much of this would literally kill me.
Being so enamored with your friends that platonic becomes blurry. Being adults and knowing nothing has to happen. Thinking about your friends before bed and when you wake up and wishing them well. Brunch and random texts and ‘made me think of you.’ Let yourself love deeply! Let yourself love in a way that confuses others!
