Hey there. Peeks from behind the curtain*
If you don't know by now, I'm a girl. Yay! (awkward wave)
I'm bi, and I've dated people here and there, but I've always chickened out before things got too serious. A lot of that came from my last relationship with a guy. (Ugh. I know.)
There's this girl at work, but she's based in Ottawa, Canada, which is... painfully far away. We used to catch up once a week for project meetings, but even after the project ended, we'd still hop on calls just to chat.
Then March happened. I nearly died and ended up in hospital for a month and a half. (Story for another day.) We barely spoke during that time.
Somewhere in those awful weeks, I realised that what I felt for her went far beyond seeing her as just a colleague.
So, last month, I confessed.
I also told her there was absolutely no pressure and that I wasn't expecting an answer. I simply wanted her to know how I felt. To my complete surprise, she admitted she has a tiny crush on me too. Phew.
But let me tell you... it's bloody painful to care about someone you can't actually be with. I want to kiss her so badly, and all I get is a tiny rectangle on my screen.
The reason I'm posting this here is that I'm unwell again, and I miss her terribly. I don't really have anyone I can say that to, so... here you are.
Right. I'm off to dunk myself in a bathtub of something before I completely lose my mind.
Okay, bye.
Oh, and one more thing...
Game Over is officially back in full swing. I'm finishing this novel by the end of August 2026.
Hold me to it.
