Any time I see two people of the same gender and about the same age together, I have a moment where I hope they're a couple. That's probably not the best response.
Fresh-eyed movie blogI mean, for all you know, that guy and girl hanging out together are brother and sister, or a gay guy hanging out with a lesbian, or more configurations that that. It's because of heteronormativity that we assume a guy and girl hanging out together are automatically a couple, and that a same sex couple are only friends.
So, there's this cute girl at university who I like a lot. She's my best friend and we hang out literally all the fucking time. She's really reticent and doesn't talk more than she needs to, which makes it difficult to assess anything about her. But oh my God I like her. Oh dear God I like her. She's gorgeous and funny and smart and she gets me. But sometimes it feels like she doesn't notice me, even when she's talking to me.
In any case, I got her a gift for Xmas and I'm gonna give it to her tomoz when I take her partway home (she lives in W Yorkshire, and I live in Birmingham, which she has to transfer to to get home, so I'll accompany her on that stretch). And maybe, if the timing is right, I'll tell her my feelings tomoz. If not... Then after we come back from our group trip Amsterdam for Semester B (30 Jan), or maybe even tell her then. Who knows?
Wish me luck guys pls.
Good luck

Good luck to you sir! May God bless!
Please allow me to introduce myself, I am a man of wealth and taste. Nice to meet you, hope you can guess my name.Best of luck to you, Hopey. :)
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.Good luck, Son.
G'luck in your struggles, chummer.
So we hung out all afternoon and then we went to Birmingham New St station complex. It was pretty fun hanging out, and we talked and laughed and joked. I don't think she feels the same way about me. And I didn't tell her my feelings. I think it's too pre-mature. I'll leave it until we come back from the break. But it doesn't matter as such, because this evening proved we are such amazing friends together. There's nothing to lose if she doesn't want to be more, cos I'm pretty okay with now - even though I'd want more.
But hey, keep positive. Things could change. We're gonna hang out again with a mutual friend in London on Thu 29, and then we're going on our group trip to Amsterdam on Fri 27 - Mon 30 Jan. We return back to class for semester B on Tue 31 Jan, and it's that week where I'll finally vomit my feelings.
I got this all planned out and sorted. I'm comfortable.
Well there's definitely worse ways to be. Here's hoping everything works out.
Five quid says Hopey confesses his feeling while drunk, stoned or high in Amsterdam.

So. I just got dumped...
I'm terribly sorry to hear that. :(
I smell magic in the air. Or maybe barbecue.How are you holding up?
Eh. I could be better I guess.
I'm so sorry to hear that, Ichi. I'm available if you need someone to talk to.
Thank you.
Anytime.
OK, so, does anyone have any advice on long-distance relationships? See, I've been wanting to try talking to my girlfriend more, but neither of us can't seem to talk often (I live in SoCal and my girlfriend lives in Croatia, which is 9 hours ahead of my timezone), and when we DO have the time to talk, we don't seem to have much to say. Also, I've been wanting to get an app where we can contact each other better, but the messaging apps I keep finding tend to require a phone number, and she doesn't want to use any of her personal information for it. The only one I know of that doesn't require any personal info would be discord, as far as I know.

Discord and Skype are both good IM apps where a phone number is not required.
Had a good cry last night. Think I really needed it actually.
Still feeling sad now, but I'm trying to get my mind off it and move on.
So, every time I see a gay couple irl, it makes me really happy. It's just really sweet, and I love seeing them being cute and happy together. I hope other lesbians feel the same when they see me with my girlfriend.
