to start i know im young and i know that right now my "crushes" seem like the whole world or at least thats what people tell me but i please know i am a very mature person for my age. ive been friends with him for years. i've known him since kindergarten and we became friends in fourth grade and ever since then we've had a stable friendship. a few years ago he admitted he used to have a crush on me and i laughed it off because for the entirety of our friendship i refused to let myself have romantic feelings for him because i wanted to maintain a friendship with a man without anything romantic involved. he's always been there for me and i've been there for him through thick and thin somehow we stayed friends. we've hugged and told eachother we've loved eachother in platonic ways without it ever being weird but we've also had fights yet we have forgave eachother and moved on. we've done almost everything together and the whole time ive never seen him in a romantic way. this year will be his last year going to the same school as me i can't text him since my parents won't allow me to have a phone number and i can't get many other apps since i have strict parents (and so does he) we live in the same neighborhood and it feels so odd. and maybe i'm making too big of a deal out of it but i feel like i'm losing the one person that has been by my side for so long. about a month ago i started to realize that i had a crush on him but i didn't admit it to myself until recently. ive been trying to send him hints and i've been trying to have him notice i like him without noticing i like him?? i definitely plan on telling him by the end of the school year. i suspect him to reject me but then if he doesn't what happens after that? how would i talk to him how would i even hold a steady relationship with him? i just need other people's opinions on this. especially advice from people older than me

(rant kinda) i am genuinely curious like why?? why do people not like yumeshippers ive shipped myself with characters since i was twelve and i remember seeing other people do it and they would be hated on in the comments and i just never understood why? "it's unhealthy that's a fictional character!" i think me drawing fanart of my yumeship is more healthy than whatever you've got going on in your middle school love life my guy. i find it even funnier when people try to insult me by saying that (insert very popular ship with my f/o) is better. like okay that your opinion and i totally understand why you would prefer to ship two characters from the same media than some dude you don't know and said character. and then theres where they claim my f/o is gay because of said popular ship and i have never denied that he's straight💔 (this is very targeted) i posted an edit and i put his sexuality as BISEXUAL and this loser said "i think your man wants a man" i'm literally bigender. i am biman

ok to start i want to state i have never harassed a double and i understand other peoples ships are just as valid as mine but whenever i see a double i genuinely get so angry and the urge to say something rude bubbles up. like i just wanna make them feel like shit. i know it's bad boooo booo tomato tomato. but it makes me so angry. no!!! you arnt "THE geto yumeshipper" because you own a lot of merch you're just as valid as me (if not less /j!!!!!)

"how would you know he literally died" what?? no he didn't okay? ok. 😇 i love thinking about how we will grow old together and we'll change and get wrinkles and how he cooks food and how i bake and when we go on little dates and every single au i can think of. whoever first said yumeshipping is unhealthy needs to open their eyes because this makes me so happy. yes your yumeship is canon and yes your f/o loves you!!!
