[ It took her a little bit to figure out how to post anonymously and she'll likely fail to keep it up, but she thought she'd try. ]

A recent survey posted to the network has me wondering how many here have been here for a little while and HAVEN'T done anything more beyond platonic physical contact. I only wish to know how long you've been here if so. You don't need to elaborate unless you want to.

One more query.

Say you have a crush on someone who isn't here. And not just a tiny little fluttering of something but it's so ridiculously INTENSE that it's like a magnetic force draws you to them any time they're around. BUT you find yourself having similar feelings to someone who IS here. Maybe it's not as intense but you do really like them and think about doing similar things with them as the person from home. Even though you've barely done any of those things with anyone let alone had a crush before.

What do you do? Do you hold out hope that maybe the crush will just go away or that your crush from home will show up? Do you go for it and hope it doesn't ruin everything? Especially if you're unsure if they have any of the same feelings or if they might already be with someone else.

ok so first off holy shit at least buy us dinner before you get that eboner going bro
thats the biggest unless i ever saw man and ive seen some motherfucking unlesses haha

aight jokes aside
you feel somethin for someone then you go for it
yeah itd suck if your dude or dudette showed up but what you gonna do bro?
you got dokidokis for another person and if youre happy and you meant anything to them before they gonna be happy for you
if they aint then they fight for your hand and it turns into a romcom where your best friend comes to your wedding and then you realize they been hittin on you the whole time
guarantee you start questioning why you ever got into this role until you see young julia roberts tryin to sing you some karaoke and you bust out laughing

yeah probably that

been here for about 5 months or so
was able to

[um

[oh boy how the fuck does she say this? It's a good thing Rey knows how the anonymous function works on her end because... woof.]

never really had contact with anyone before coming here beyond platonic
and even then being touched has always been difficult

uncomfortable

was able to try being more intimate with someone else since coming here
like touching them is fine
but not ready to be touched the same way yet

probably

[It's been a Process, to say the least.]

doesnt help that there WAS someone from home
wouldnt call it a crush so much as an infatuation maybe??
just something really complicated

I've thought about this before.

Back home, I have someone I have strong feelings for, still do

But I kinda like the culture here so I've been pretty intimate... but more casually though. Like friends with benefits

The way I see it is that everyone's relationship with me is unique. I can't really replace anyone in my heart with someone else, even if I wanted to

Maybe that's why I have yet to actually have a romantic relationship with anyone

If it's a crush and it's not reciprocated as far as you know, then it's not like you'd be cheating on them.

It would probably be different if you were, but since it sounds like you're not with that person back home I don't see why you can't see where this new crush takes you.

this place really sells it on the need for intimacy i'm kinda curious about people who haven't done jack shit either

also

i'm sort of in the same boat

I have absolutely no experience with the either of these things, but, if I do know one thing---

It's that waiting typically is not the best option. You'll regret on what you miss out on. Every time.

I was here for three or four months before the moons compelled me to give into my more base desires.

I just got here so I can't answer the first part, but the second part!! Make sure you tell the person! Even if they don't return your feelings, it feels good to know that someone cares about you. It'll feel good for you too to get it out and know instead of keeping it bottled up. You can't do anything about the person at home and you haven't made a commitment to them, so all you can do is focus on what's in front of you.

Your definition of crush is making it hard for me to answer which option may provide the best outcome.

I cannot pretend to know your situation, but I have been told that a Moonblessed’s time here is often finite. I think it would be a shame were you to leave without having properly found closure, even if nothing more came of your feelings for them.

Whatever you choose to do, know that I have faith in you and will support you wholeheartedly in your decision!
