oh my fucking god

i swear i don't do it on purpose, the info falls into my fucking lap sometimes

...i guess i'm only really being a creeper if i use it to actually say something...or maybe it's the other way around, i'm a creeper if i just look at shit and don't reach out?? idk

fucking hormones making me act like i'm 10 years younger than i am

So do you have a crush on this guy and you've never spoken to him or interacted with him or something? I mean, if you're just mad crushing on him and looking at his profile pics with no negative feelings towards it, that's not to bad. I mean, at least you're not one of those people who stalks to hate on people, which is a lot more creepy. But maybe spend some time away from the computer and see what other dudes are out there?

I kind of get this feeling in a way. There's this one guy who is super famous in a somewhat established web fandom who always went by a pseudoname. Well one time when I was bored, I found out his real name and read his old public web journal entries that he wrote as an autobiography, and I started to have a crush on him because he reminded me of dudes that I usually date and this guy's interests were in sync with my own. I used to check up on his real facebook profile too. But after maybe a week, I got bored and started hanging with real people who I can interact with and I don't do that anymore.

Basically, this is just a phase for you. So gently ween off it by doing other things to preoccupy yourself.

pretty much...i found his blog accidentally by a mutual friend and he and i agree on so many things and we have similar interests and we're the same age and oh god he's actually cute...i guess all i can do unless i get the courage to say "hello, we have mutual friends and interests and i think you are a cool person" is daydream about doing that.

daydreaming about saying hi to someone. never realized i was quite that shy.

problem is i had a crush on him before i even found out we were "compatible" as it were...but then it was a distant kind of crush and i was okay with admiring from afar and now all i want is to talk to him...him to know i exist.

why do i sound like a fucking eight year old god i hate it i hate crushing i hate this

side note

oh and what's really weird is he has the same first name as three other guys i've had a crush on in the past

i mean it's a common name but why do i always fall for guys named that

i think i actually liked him more once i found that out, it's fucking weird

*offers hugs* It's okay. Everything will be fine.

If you're within driving distance, you could possibly work up the courage to eventually contact him. Especially if you do have mutual friends! It's okay to have butterflies over this stuff. Sometimes when you connect with someone on a lot of levels that you can begin to see a bunch of potential there, it can get you excited over it. So if you do have mutual friends and he's within a close distance to hang out at a movie or something, then maybe you can send him a message saying you think it's cool to find someone else who has ______ mutual interest and see where that goes.

If it's too long distance or if he's with someone else/has a sexuality not compatible with yours though, then it might be best to remind yourself of that and that there's plenty of fish in the sea. I know it might not seem like that right now, but I promise you'll find someone else you can connect to like this.

Either way, it'll work out anon.

I should note that even if it is long distance, there can be ways to work it out. It's a bit harder, but it's not impossible!

If a guy were doing this to you, would you find it creepy? And if a guy were in your same position, what could he do to NOT be creepy? What would be acceptable and welcome and fun?

That's your starting point.

Third party jumping in here, but in all honesty? As long as you didn't give off "Nice Guy" vibes and spitefully hate on me because I didn't accept your advances, I would be fine with it. People have crushes on other people all the time, and it's natural to get a bit curious.

To answer your second question, as long as you aren't stalking this person irl then you should be fine. None of the behavior above that the OP is doing is high on the creep-o-meter. People have crushes; we're human and it's a part of life. What comes with the territory of living in a cyberworld where you can search someone's name using Google is maybe looking at their facebook profile out of curiosity. Just try to start a conversation with them over a mutual interest online and see where it takes you. Actually knowing what a person is like by interacting with them instead of fantasizing about doing it will get you where you need to be.
