Haha, okay!!! So, recently, I've been getting a crush on this foreign boy. He's from Indonesia, which, funnily enough, I knew existed, but I FORGOT it existed for like, a solid 14 years.
So anyways, I had a hard time telling this boy I liked him, because I guess I thought he friend zoned me, but anyways, I didn't want to just send him a weird, balled up text like:
*hides behind wall* *peeks from around the corner of the wall* Here are my emotions- *awkwardly throws ball of words* *starts running away* BYE-
So, I figured I would flirt, but then i realized i had no idea HOW to flirt. I tried asking my good friend, Miso, and she said, “Oh, just give compliments!!!” but like, when I do it, I feel like I do it so sarcastically-
Like, if he were to show me his drawing, I would be like “Oh, that's nice! Thats so good, thats f**king amazing!” I feel like he would feel like I'm trying to be a suck up, and I don't want that. I want to be kinda...subutle, you know? So I would try to self-correct by going like: “Oh but this could be better”
But then I feel like I'm dissing him, and so I try to self correct by giving him more praise and before you know it, I'm a walking contradiction that not even phoenix wright could unravel.
So I didn't flirt with him.
I know, how this boy doesn't know I like him is a mystery to me too. I mean, I've been so obvious.
So anyways. He is from Indonesia. So, for some reason, my brain was like:
Hey. Hey. *taps shoulder annoyingly* hey.
And I'm like,
What?
Brain: I see you like that boy.
Me: You see correctly. Though, HOW you can see correctly is a mystery, because my vision is crappy, so why would you see goo-
Brain: Shut up. I cracked the code.
Me: Code?
Brain: On how to seduce the boy!!!
Me: Oh wait, really?!?!?
Brain: Yes, it's so simple.
Me: Oh god, tell me.
Brain: Seduce him with history!!!
Then my heart, who is a very good eavesdropper, just comes in and it like:
Oh my god, how did we not think of this before???
And I'm just like:
You guys are so right!!!
So, instead of like, going to him and being like:
“Oh hey, I really like you.” or flirting like “You're really hot, I like you a lot”
Like, cuz why would I do that??? Why would that work??? Like, no. Boys like facts about where they live, duh. Like, just imagine me.
