I’ve been working the night shift for about three months now. There’s a girl I work with, and we’ve been spending a lot of time together since we work the same shift and are mostly alone for much of it. We talk about all kinds of things and try to have fun during the boring hours. I’d consider her a good friend, and honestly, I’m happy with that. I’m a pretty lonely person, so having someone like her around is fun.A few weeks ago, we started a routine of buying snacks after work and sitting on a bench on our way home to watch the sunrise. A few days ago, while we were hanging out there, she said, “Hey, you look tired, the kind of tired that sleep can’t fix. Are you okay?”I struggle with chronic depression, but I usually try to hide it. I guess I didn’t do a very good job, since she noticed. Then she said, “I heard head massages can be relaxing.” She patted her lap and asked if I wanted to rest my head there. I did, and she played with my hair while we talked casually, like we always do.I was blushing hard, though. I was freaking out, no one has ever been so kind to me. Now it’s like a switch has flipped. Before, I could face her and talk to her easily, but now I start freaking out. I don’t know what to do. I genuinely consider her a good friend, and I’m fine with things staying that way. But now I have a huge crush on her. How do I stop crushing on her and continue interacting with her normally?
She likes you, retard.
>>35085538I’ve thought about that, but I’m not really sure. What if she’s just being kind, and I end up making things weird by assuming she likes me? Besides, I’m too much of a mess/mentally ill, for a relationship right now.
>>35086962>What if she’s just being kind>lap pillowNo.
>>35087837I guess the lap pillow was a pretty bold move. I'll stay on the lookout for more signs. If I find anything obvious, I'll ask her on a proper date and see what happens
>>35087906Don't wait too long.
>>35084373Honestly, bro...just keep the ship on course. This seems like your a young lad, this is a good sign of things from a romantic prospect. If this kinda thing continues for another month or two without directly talking to her. I would ask her about it, Mention the first time of the lap pillow and since then the idea of a relationship first appeared for you. Either signs come faster or slower. Just hold tight.
