After some recent deep reflection, I'm convinced I'm bisexual after literal years of thinking I was just gay.


I wouldn worry too much about it. I am a bit sceptical about setting things into fixed categories of either "straight" "gay" or "bi" as fixed sexual orientation one has supposedly, to pick or decide for.

Human beings are more complex than fitting put into some category or corner of either letter combination or word that, as you said, we're supposed (sic!) to figure out. Regardless what the mainstream tells those days, be in favor or against it.

That's always a problem with massive crushes. Do you do anything social with this person or have you been doing puppy-dog eyes from afar? I would recommend - and my advice is worth many times more than the paper it's printed on - I would recommend getting coffee or something and saying, "So ... uhm ... is it hot in here? Whew ... anyway, do you think we could go out sometimes, like on a date or something?" Don't say anything about having a crush on them, just "I'd like to go out with you."

And blow a chance at a relationship you want?
If they don't feel the same way, you are exactly where you are now, not in a relationship you want to be in.

Farn gave good advice, I recommend taking it.

We try to hang out every few months since we're good friends, though its been a while since we hung out since I'm away from Asheville rn. Though we talk frequently via Messenger n shit.

Hmmm ... well, every few months is kind of an impediment. I mean, you could say, "Look, I've been thinking about this a lot and I'm really into you so why don't you throw everything over in Asheville and come here to me?" Okay, that probably wouldn't work. Ethel and Nana said good things, I can't improve on that. Since you do talk electronically, you could have The Conversation that way. "It would be great if we could get together more often." Just don't be creepy.

I do plan on moving back to Asheville sometime next year, lol. I dunno, we both complain to each other every few months about how our dating lives are shit and we both agree that dating apps/trying to date strangers doesn't work and we need to be friends with somebody before we date them.

I dunno, maybe I'm reading into things too much. I figured next time we have our complaint session I'd somehow just suggest we date each other.

If Kannap says it in the same tone I've just read it with, this will totally not go wrong. ^^
Since Lillorainen's geography is currently being overhauled a 'tiny' bit, most information on it posted before December 12, 2018, is not entirely reliable anymore. Until there's a new, proper factfile, everything you might need to know can be found here. Thank you. #RetconOfDoom (Very late update, 2020/08/30 - it's still going on ...)
