"Joking" Advances or Genuine Feelings?

Written by Daise on Sat Oct 21 2023

Hey there, diary! It's your favorite gay femboy, Daise. Today, I want to spill some tea and share my thoughts on a topic that has been swirling in my mind lately – are my advances towards my best friend just jokes or do they stem from genuine feelings?

A Unique Friendship

Let me start by giving you a little background. My best friend and I were born on the same day in the same hospital. How crazy is that? We've been inseparable ever since, attending the same high school together and hanging out every Friday after school like clockwork.

The Shy Emotions

Now here's where things get interesting. You see, I have this crush on him but expressing these emotions terrifies me to no end. Part of it comes from fear – fear of losing our amazing friendship if he doesn't feel the same way about me.

I'm usually outgoing and assertive when it comes to other aspects of life; however, showing love is an entirely different ball game for me. It's like all those romantic comedies rewired my brain into being shy when it matters most.

Keeping Secrets

So how am I dealing with all these pent-up emotions? Well... let's just say humor is both a defense mechanism and an outlet for hidden desires.

Whenever we hang out together as friends, which happens quite frequently thanks to our tight bond, I often find myself making playful advances towards him disguised as jokes or harmless banter. Deep down inside though (and trust me diary), every word carries a secret longing for something more meaningful between us.

It might sound confusing or even contradictory - why would someone hide their true feelings behind such thinly veiled attempts at romance? But bear with me because sometimes actions speak louder than words!

Optimism Galore!

Despite all this emotional turmoil brewing beneath the surface, one thing remains constant - optimism runs through my veins like caffeine pumping through my system. I'm always looking on the bright side of life, ready to seize any opportunity that comes my way.

Convincing and Carefree

It's true, diary, I don't really care about what others think of me. Whether it's because of my femininity or being openly gay, their opinions hold no power over me. However, when it comes to the people closest to me – especially my friends – their thoughts matter a great deal.

I want them to see me as someone they can rely on and respect. Someone who isn't afraid to be vulnerable but still stands tall in the face of adversity.

The Battle Within

But here lies the battle within - should I reveal these genuine feelings hidden beneath all those "joking" advances? Or is it better for our friendship if things remain as they are?

Part of me yearns for honesty and vulnerability; after all, we've shared so many intimate moments together already. Opening up about how much he means to me might bring us closer than ever before.

On the other hand (and trust diary), there's this nagging fear that everything will change once those words leave my mouth. What if he doesn't feel the same way? Will our Friday hangouts become awkward encounters filled with uncomfortable silence?

Diary’s Advice Needed!

So dear diary (yes! You're getting promoted from best friend status today!), what do you think? Should I take a leap into unknown territory and confess these hidden desires weighing heavily on my heart? Or should I continue playing off these advances as jokes while secretly longing for something more?

Please give your honest opinion because sometimes an outsider's perspective can provide clarity where confusion reigns supreme!

Until next time,

Daise
