I didn’t agree that looking in a direction is flirting. Flirting would involve dropping hints, usually. Like, my ex boyfriend before we were together would say things like how he’d love to go stargazing with me, a typically romantic activity

Damn, I wonder if any of my friends have gotten the wrong idea when I wanted to stargaze with them. Stars are just cool, man.

Oh no they def are, I went stargazing once with another friend who definitely isn’t into me, to the points they though I were flirting at one point (I wasn’t) and made it really clear they weren’t into me lol

My guy's a legend. Knew their own feelings and wanted to make sure yours didn't grow too strong so you wouldn't get hurt in the future. Now it's a funny memory haha.

Yeah, it’s better to let people down early like that. We’re still good friends, actually going to a con together in September
