AWKWARD ZOMBIE

Why did you sniff your hand after scratching in your pants? Needed to confirm whether it'd smell terrible or not?

Sort of late reply.

I think I wouldn't really be able to have a meaningful relationship with anyone unless we were friends first. I have been pretty emotionally scarred in that department so I need to be able to trust them enough to talk to them about that stuff, but even if it weren't for that I feel like being friends is important because that way hanging out with each other is natural and you know what you have in common.

I think if the friends are close enough that they can clearly communicate to each other about their relationship and what's expected, then they'll be fine dating each other. If things go wrong, they need to be able to talk to each other about it, understand each other, and forgive each other if the need arises. If it turns out they would be better off as just friends, it is possible to work it out with each other to still have that friendship afterward. Of course, every relationship and friendship is different, but communication is key here.

Nothing short of beautiful.

God damn Zone.

it's almost 7 am and i am awake

i have been up since 4

the fire alarm kept beeping and scaring the ever loving fuck out of my dogs. they whined and whimpered and followed me everywhere even after the beeping stopped. i went from bed to bed and finally onto a couch and the fuckers are still crowding me and there's no room and i'm so fucking tired

Oh God, I haven't taken a shower in like 3 days. I feel so gross.

I can't go a day without showering

I can go a day, but no longer. I usually shower every night so if I skip a night, I shower in the morning, and then my shower schedule goes weird for the next day

^ this. I usually shower/bathe at night but on Fridays I work mornings and I'm disgusting when I get home so I shower at noon and then its all weird haha. Sometimes I'll shower again that night or Saturday morning

Guy I like just broke up with his girlfriend. Never saw that coming. I just wrote a few days ago that I would be surprised if they didn't get married at some point. That must be really hard for them. It's weird because they were such a stable thing for years. It's kind of upsetting for me as well because things are changing just a little bit more. Thinking of telling him about my crush on him now because I don't have to feel like I'm interfering with his relationship, and at the same time I would no longer have to feel like a creep for hiding it from him. My emotions.

if you're going to tell him about your crush, wait a while. post-break up is going to be hard for him, and throwing your feelings into the mix is going to make things messy for both of you.

What Bacon said, if you just jump in on it like that, things could get very very messy and there's a chance it could backfire on you

What Bacon said. If you come up to him now and confess your feelings he might feel like you were just waiting til they broke up for you to snatch him up and that will cause him to resent you. Give him a few months and just be his friend and see where it takes you.

I'm not really trying to get with him or anything, I just want to put my feelings out there so I can get it off my chest. I just want to stop feeling guilty about it. The whole thing is stupid anyway.

i kind of went through the same thing. offer support as a friend but don't involve any romance or expect anything to come of it until he's healed from the breakup.

and don't think of it as "what can i do to get him to date me" just try and be there for him as much as you're comfortable with
