Platonic crushes

[Fynn]

Has anyone here experienced this - you meet someone and think "Oh my God, I wanna be their friend so smurfing bad!"?

I've had this a couple times, but that might be because I'm both very shy and very sociable, and all my old friends are far away and I just can't make new ones.

If I want to be someones friend and our social classes allow it (eg, its not a celebrity platonic crush) I will generally try to find a way to subtly weasel myself into their life. Unfortunately for them I'm usually successful. Though generally they have to be at least a friend of a friend of a friend or circumstances have caused us to be acquaintances before I can make my move, I cant just go up to a stranger on a train I find fascinating.

Can't say I have.

[Crop]

No. I'm the one people have platonic crushes on.

[Pike]

Yeah, always people who have some ability that I really admire (like they're really good at fanart/fanfic/etc.)

I'm too terrified to ever end up talking to them so here we are!

My platonic crushes are probably the icosahedron or the dodecahedron.

I attribute this to playing table top RPGs in my formative years, and the shape of the dice used in those games.

Yes :<

If I ever hear anyone avidly discussing something that interests me (rpgs, anime/shows I've watched, music I like) I want to join in sooo bad but the one time I did I was ignored (so awkward) so now I'm scarred and just listen on in quiet anguish when it happens D:
