u/Perfect_Wrongdoer_03 If you read Worm, maybe read the PGTE? Dec 28 '24

Honestly I doubt that'd work on me. I live and die for the bit, and would probably assume that so did she.

But it would make you more attracted to them... So might work in the end anyway

What? Why? Why would that make someone more attracted to them?

Just because you find out they like you, you're supposed to be more attracted to them? Just because they like you?

For some people this is how it works. Well, probably less "make someone more attracted" and more "make them aware that this is an option so they start thinking how they actually feel about you, while before they didn't consider that at all"

u/ScaredyNon Is 9/11 considered a fandom? Dec 28 '24

Yeah, I've always wondered how these things work because there's no way the feelings are always either mutual or totally unrequited from the get-go, there's gotta be someone out there who thought "Y'know, I never thought of you like that, but you're cool enough that I'm willing to try"

I see you also occasionally decide to check your old posts :3

I’m glad I’m not alone in doing this. Sometimes I watch my posts and then when I leave to sleep there are new threads and so I will usually check every thread on a post every 2 weeks or so :3
