2023-12-20 20:16:53 +0000 UTCY’know who might be good to talk to about these new, negative feelings, Lucy? It’s not Raidah—Raidah hates nerds and is after Walky’s [investment portfolio] so she’s not going to give you the time of day, no no, that’s been thoroughly debunked. No, I think you should talk about this with *Malaya*.

2023-12-20 16:11:52 +0000 UTCThis whole storyline between Lucy and Walky has been hard to read because it brings back memories of the first time I ever dated. She was a friend of mine who I’d had a crush on for a few months and I’d been ignoring that and trying to shove it down so I didn’t potentially ruin the friendship we had - we’d only know eachother a few years but had grown up in the same suburb, had similar interests, and even knew the same people. A friend of mine convinced me to ask her out, she enthusiastically said yes, but while the first few dates were fun but got way too attached too quickly and weirded her out. She started backing away, I got clingy, and it resulted in her breaking up with me via text four months after the first date. She said the “can we go back to being friends” thing but responded to maybe one message a month, if that, while before dating it had been us messaging back and forth and calling to geek out about stuff multiple times a day. It got to the point where she was organising and heading out to get-togethers with mutual friends while ignoring me, then hooked up with a mutual friend, before I cut my losses and cut contact. I guess that the reason I’m sharing this is because it’s been really painful to see Lucy making the same mistakes I was making when I was younger? I’m glad it seems to have ended a bit better for her, at least. Now she just has to get through the bad brain stuff and come out the other side stronger and more resilient.
