I’ve spent nearly 3 hours with a draft message to The Girl about something grown up and serious and I’m too anxious to send it.

@Erased_Citizen You alright?

[grrrr_shark@supervolcano.angryshark.eu]

@Erased_Citizen Not sure anyone should panic about you writing something you think you need to write regardless of content.

[erased_citizen@cupoftea.social]

@grrrr_shark yeah, I’m alright. I realised that sounded quite dramatic. It’s just me trying to admit to wanting a little more and gauging how she feels

@Erased_Citizen
Good luck!

Also I’m seeing her early in the morning as she’s taking me for breakfast, so you know, don’t want to be internally cringing

[foo__@mastodon.social]

@Erased_Citizen give The Girl a kiss from us

[erased_citizen@cupoftea.social]

Ah fuck it, gonna embrace the cringe and do it. At the end of the day, we’ve been seeing each other since May, so it’s 10 months. Maybe she’s been waiting for me to make this move, even.

[erased_citizen@cupoftea.social]

Reader, he’s still putting it off

[erased_citizen@cupoftea.social]

To be honest, I’m trying to think of how to word it best without it being a) weird b) not clear
