I used to make jokes that referenced my "online crushes" a fair amount until someone on Twitter who I barely knew responded by implying that I had a crush on them and it bothered me more than I thought it would
And they were someone I could have potentially been attracted to! It's just that the moment I feel like someone's being at all pushy about trying to tell me what my feelings are is the moment I lose interest in them
Idk I kinda wanna go back to being as fun and flirty on the internet as I used to be. I don't wanna be too ambiently intimidating because that always seems to scare off the people who actually are being gracious and sensitive. I just need to be more upfront about where my boundaries are I guess.
