So I have a couple of really half-assed crushes on boys going on, and one crush that I didn't realize that I've been nursing for possibly close to two years. What. The. Fuck. Especially with the two year crush.

Romance is so confusing, and I have just realized something that all of the children that I teach probably already know: fighting it just makes things unnecessarily complicated.

I think that I need to be open to getting hurt and being vulnerable. Except that I don't like that.
