Hi space mum! soooo i have a crush on my best friend who's 7 years older than me (i'm 18). I'm p sure nothing will ever happen bc she'd think of too much of an age gap and i usually think the same but now i'm?? confused?? she'd never do anything to hurt me or pressure me into anything and I'd trust her with my life but. idk. i kinda feel bad, ig? and i can't tell her bc it'd make things to awkward but she keeps saying she's unlovable and nobody will like her and i'm just like. but i'm here
:( I’m sorry to hear you’re in that situation. I guess I would recommend staying platonic for a bit? I know you’re 18 and an adult but 18 and 25 are two very different places in life. I suppose I would say that there’s a difference between platonic love and romantic love? Like, there are ways you can show her you care about her without being romantic?
