    This looks like a mess of information, sorry guys, I don't really know how to word this.

    So almost two months ago I met a guy online, we both shared our interest for a particular fictional character(he is bisexual). We talked every single day from the time we met greeting each other in the morning and telling each other good night. We found that we both shared a lot in common, and it was great. Then about a month ago, I found my self unable to stop thinking about him, at first I assumed it must be just a little crush.

    The feelings I had for him developed even further, I found my self thinking him even more often. I spent all my time thinking about him, wondering how he is doing, or if something might be troubling him. I'd often worry about him over the smallest things, hoping he is ok. I comfortably talk with him about anything and everything. I feel like I can't live with out him, and I really want to be by his side. He is the first real person in my life that ever made me feel this way. It pains me when he is unhappy, he often talks about how lonely he is, he often puts him self down even though he is such an amazing person.

    So, I broke down and told him how I felt, we talked it over and I understand he isn't ready for a relationship, and I don't think I am really either. So for now it's mostly a platonic friendship, but I hope it might one day become something more. Because of him, I came to realize that, gender isn't a barrier for the person you want to spend the rest of your life with, and remove that barrier really helped me.

    Very romantic story!
    If this was about a boy and girl everyone would think your story is super cute.
    You're right, you can't choose who you fall in love with.
    Best of luck with your relationship,/friendship.

    Same exact thing happened to me, but with a girl. We tried LDR dating for a bit, homophobic parents broke it up, she sorta said we might be able to try again in the future but...now she's dating a guy, and he's super amazing...and I'm still not over her...sigh. Who the heck invented love, amirite? -.-;;
