exactly !!! you have you check their vibes to see if they're compatible with yours!! all the cute boys around here play it so cool and it's like... that's nice, i guess. good on you for being mature and having healthy boundaries. HOWEVER. is it so much to want someone to look at you the way hannibal (mads mikkelsen) looks at will graham?

i liked merlin but i don't think he likes me and my friends don't like him so i told them i don't like him even though i DO but i don't think he's the type who can appreciate a graveyard, you know?? he's nice and he's cute and i like his fashion but he lacks that intensity??

and i THINK i like laszlo but i'm not sure if i like him or if i'm just possessive. and i feel guilty for liking him because i'm supposed to be his best friend and now i feel like i'm ruining it by making things awkward.
