The purpose of posting a thread is for opinions and conversation, and a story about your personal experiences and feelings is far more conducive to that than "I agree." Plus, as you know, Spam does tend towards the "giving a fuck" side of the spectrum when it really comes down to it. So share, because we do care. And stop with the angsty self-pity, you're better than that; don't sabotage yourself if you have something to say and contribute.

Now. What were ya gonna say, man?

omg smiral why are you being such a bitch wtf. how dare you make jokes.It's not exactly angsty self pity. Maybe it is. Fuck if I actually know. But, I'm so annoyed and on edge because I stayed up 22 hours, only to get 6 hours of sleep because of inconsiderate fucks in my house.Anyways, after getting dumped and being uber shitfaced one night(imagine that!), I was talking to that girl and we pretty much straight up told the other that if we lived closer we'd be a thing. Thinking about it, it wasn't much more than that being said. Though, I did go and apologize the day after for not absolutely losing my shit that she felt that way because I was absolutely drunk. But yeah, that's my story. And it sounded way cooler in my head. THen again my head is relatively incoherent atm.

Does this "i just like some flirtiness in my friendships" apply to both men and women? If so you may be choosing the wrong word to describe this, unless you are bi, because by my definition flirting is banter suggesting sexual interest. If you really do mean flirty by my definition, then I can't think of a response to this thread that I don't think would hurt your feels.

Smiral's so tsundere

Doivid said
based on your op, ofc> feel a little hurt or offput or whatever>dies or gets suppresses? taking it that personally or phrasing it as if it's being done to you is a sign of wanting to control it. There's no reason to feel those things or think of it that way. no offense tho, just bein realtalk here.

i'll pass. for reasons i'm not going to say because i mention one little thing and i cause a shit storm every time, because it's somehow unimaginable that people are different from you.

Don't you think you're looking a bit too much into the language patterns of a sleep-deprived 17-year-old typing this out on a phone at 5.30 in the morning? You're ignoring the content of the point, what I actually said I meant throughout the post, in order to scour choice of language in a couple of sentences.The vast majority of the people I'd trust with my life, I don't have any sort of flirting dynamic with. The girl I have a crush on, I have no flirting dynamic with. It's unimportant; I have other, more interesting things to talk about with the people I care for than just flirting. And as someone who has friendships he doesn't even want to be flirty in, I don't view it as something being "done" to me. It simply is as it is, because people, and relationships, are all different.That doesn't mean, however, that it doesn't have an effect on the way I talk to that person, and in the manner through which I connect; I have to adjust, obviously, just as you said you have to adjust certain aspects of your humour at times. My question was whether other people felt that adjustment adversely affected their relationships, or not.Now that I've had to justify myself to appease your yearning for pseudo-psychoanalysis of language connotations, would you listen to the meaning of the paragraph rather than connotations of individual words from someone who's just not putting thought into them?

LOL>"ur putting too much thought">all these wordscalm down halo, it was an observation. You put yourself out there for it, so don't be a little bitch about it and just take it as constructive criticism.also no, I didn't do the whole reading the whole point thing because after I got through those parts I knew the rest was just rationalizing. And I appreciate the compliment, but I didn't spend a lot of time analyzing. It was the first thing that jumped out at me....in hindsight I realize this is why I always used kid gloves around you. just assume I'm doing your yearning thing or w/e, pls no more tl;dr.
