We all know the feeling of having a crush.
The first time you see that beautiful creature from afar, you try to play it cool.
I know, I'll try and be...seductive...suave if you will.
Just when you think you've ruined it, they say "hi."
Wait, did you...DID YOU JUST SPEAK TO ME? OH MY GOD WHAT DO I DO?! I mean...I'm cool haha *clears throat* Hey.
You exchange names, a little small talk. Things are going well. You casually ask for their number, AND THEY GIVE IT TO YOU!
I'M FEELING MUHSELF
But then two days pass, and there has not been a single text exchange. Zilch, nada, nothing. Not. Even. One.
I shall lay here and waste away...no...no...just let me be *cries*
Then you decide to pull yourself together and be more productive. You creep their social media accounts.
Um, who is this commenting with the heart-eyes emoji? Pity. They don't even know of the danger they're in. I will cut them.
You're 63 weeks deep into their Instagram when your phone buzzes. You panic.
Did...did I...did I just like that photo? I did. I can live up to it. I'm fine, It's fine. *whispers to self* no...no it isn't.
You look down at your phone to see who it was who brought you to your demise. You can't believe your eyes. It's your crush!
Not trying to mess up anymore than you already have, you try to think of the perfect reply to their "hey what's up?"
Okay, you got this. Play it cool. "Hey. Nothing much, you?"....Nailed it.
Three hours and four texts later, you realize that it's 1 something in the morning, and you're waiting for their reply whilst fighting sleep.
Must. Stay. Awake.
Finally, they respond back.
I'm awake, I'm awake!!!
And ask if you're free next week.
Did you message the wrong person? Ohh, ohh you're talking to me...let me go hide in my corner for a sec. BRB!
You get your life together and try to wait an allotted amount of time, so you don't seem too eager. You play it cool, then reply.
"Yes. I'm free" Handled it like a pro.
You two set up a time, date, and place. You have no idea why you were worried in the first place.
I can relax and go to bed now.
And then you realize you have to figure out what you're going to wear because YOU HAVE A DATE WITH YOUR CRUSH!
