*emerges from hiatus* I just had to get some things off of my chest, and there wasn't really anywhere else to say this. Anyways, on with the current mess I'm in.

So, I have this friend, right? We've known each other for ages. Problem is, I have a squish on them. For those of you who don't know, a squish, in the words of urban dictionary is "In the asexual/aromantic community, the equivalent of a "crush", but explicitly lacking an interest in forming a romantic couple or having a sexual relationship with the person in question. It does not matter if they are "in a relationship", as longas you two can have a deep connection. A squish is an intense feeling of attraction, liking, appreciation, admiration for a person you urgently want to get to know better and become close with. It is different from "just wanting to be friends" in that there is an intensity about it and a disproportionate sense of elation when they like and appreciate you back."

I don't know how to approach this though?? I mean, people have thought that we were dating before, but this is different?? I honestly don't know. Emotions suck, so any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.
