Comment on Love is love
Nuke_the_whales@lemmy.world 1 month agoI agree with this. I had this gorgeous friend that I never once tried making a move on our flirting with, cause she was way out of my league. We got to hanging out alone a lot and I would never do anything but just act like a normal, non horny person for once. All of a sudden she’s kissing me. Like wtf?! Good times.

That’s why I always tell people to stop ‘looking’, that’s just desperate and off-putting. Friendships will turn into relationships if its meant to be.

these are all great stories but what if it doesn’t happen and you stay single for life

If that’s your worry, you never stopped “looking”

How so? I’m not “looking” at all. I’m just seeing my friends once in a while and occasionally making new friends. Outside of that I’m just focusing on my studies. I’ve stopped caring about dating for a long time. Of course that doesn’t mean I’ve stopped wishing to meet someone.

That’s the thing, it will work 100% guaranteed. As long as you’re open to new friendships. Will the first person fall in love with you? Probably not. The second? Also probably not. That’s the beauty of it, you’ll either have an SO or a ton of friends, and having a friend of the opposite gender is like wingman paradise.

No it won’t. I tried that for 30 years with no success.
For some people, if you don’t put in effort you will not get any of those things.

Yeah well I already have a ton of friends. I just think you can’t claim it will work 100% for everyone, because you can’t prove that.

The story above happened because someone made a move.

Make the move! You’ll know and they’ll know when the moment is right, but don’t rush it!

I’m glad I’m not searching for romantic advice in this thread because if I were I’d have a headache.
Should I search for a friendship instead of a relationship? Should I make a move? Should I make a move on my friends?!

Tina Belcher is my spiritual guide on this issue. Nothing wrong with a little erotic friend-fiction becoming reality.
