"MAYBE YOU SHOULD JUST TALK TO HER"
honest to god i probably should but i don't know how to approach this crush. it's brand new and it's exciting but sometimes i feel bad and i pretend i don't know why. i shouldn't have to feel bad for my attraction. should i?
and i know a lot of my friends don't realize it but it's not as easy as they make it out to be. i feel like i have to be so careful not to scare her off. it's the game of you're not a predator just because you like girls and the game of then why do i feel like i'm doing something wrong. it's tricky and i don't want to play anymore.
i've never told anyone this because i feel like they'll just tell me there's nothing wrong with loving girls! when i've already told myself a million times but i just can't make it stick. others may just not understand and for once i don't think i'd have the words to explain.
i've seen the parades but i've also seen the hate crimes and i've heard the love stories but i've also heard all the tragedies and i try so hard to be proud but reality makes it difficult. if love is love then that must mean hate is hate and which one is there more of?
