I think he was flirting with me
Disclaimer: I've never dated
and I don't know if my crush has
but he says we're friends
so I'm realizing that maybe we're not meant to be
Yesterday, I met a guy
He got up out of his seat
and came up to me, commenting that he thinks he knows me from somewhere
I'd seen him around before and I was thinking the same thing
because I knew his voice whenever I went to the room
My friend was dating him when I knew her
but he said they don't talk anymore
so that must mean he's available
and I am, too
I shouldn't get too hung up on my crush
He and I haven't been hanging out as much as before
but I still get happy to see him
and I think I surprised him when I visited this week
but we work
and we go to different places throughout our days
our schedules don't align anymore
and he hasn't replied to my last message
so I stopped texting him
I didn't want to burden him with my problems
This new guy, though
isn't my type
I prefer clean-cut hair like my crush's
I prefer a fit physique
and some faces just look cuter than others
but this new guy
was complimenting my dress last night
I didn't think it was anything special
but it accentuated my womanhood,
showing the world that I'm no longer a girl
He was talking to me quite a bit, even though we were supposed to play a game
with our friends
We sat next to each other
and I can't get him out of my head
It's nice to feel wanted
important to someone
I like when people give me attention
"So go for it," I tell myself.
My crush doesn't know I like him, and maybe we'll just be friends for the rest of our lives
What's so wrong with a little flirting?
