So there's this guy I might like?
| He's been asking me to join his gaming night with his friends for the last few weeks but I've just been too depressed and socially anxious to join. He always said it's no problem when I say I can't join right now, but I always feel bad about it. I'm not avoiding him, I've just been avoiding *gestures at the entire world*
He knows I get depressed and the way he sometimes check up on me, I think he at least cares about me? Idk.
| I dunno why I'm making this thread. Just hoping I can write the anxiousness away, I guess. He's inviting me for a game night again tonight (not with his group this time, I think) and I don't feel as bad as the last few times he asked, so maybe I'll take him up on that offer this time.

You may think you like him, and that may be true, but that's until you get to know him and learn that beneath those sparkling eyes is a giant, gaping void that you'll have to fill in yourself.
And should you develop into something more serious - somehow - he'll simply get bored of fucking you after a while and move on to the next target.
Walk away.

Yeah, see, thing is I'm also a giant gaping void that need some filling. And I kinda don't want to spend the rest of my life being just a lonely gaping void, you know?

A man is really the worst way of going about it...
But, fine. I wish you the best, but I have fulfilled my duty to you by warning you.
| Cool? So, go dating with him more? Tell him you like him?
| It'd probably be worth making clear to him that you're asexual, just so there aren't any unpleasant misunderstandings later on. But yeah, joining in with some games with him sounds like a good idea to me, and might even make you feel a little less depressed.
| >>800843 I second this as well. I'm ace too, and if I ever get close with someone, I'll talk about it in a casual way.

| We met online in a forum ages ago, but even after the forum went down we kinda kept talking. Not regularly, maybe like once a month or even less than that, but enough that we don't feel too estranged. We met IRL a couple of years ago. He's nice. Kinda cute too.
I don't know if I like him in that way. I've pretty much accepted I'm probably asexual and just don't get attracted to anyone. But, like, he's nice. I won't mind being with him.
