Just yesterday we were having a discussion about online crushes and today @Nyan sempai has even posted a blog warning others of the inevitable and bitter heartbreak associated with it. What she says are true and come from her personal experience, so in a sense, they are wise thoughts.
But I'll say, why not? Must we always try to weigh what we can achieve from being close to another mind and sharing some space together?
I know most of you here will denounce me for advocating fickle, not-so-serious relationships, but honestly, that's not my intention at all. To me, it's important to create memories, bittersweet and cherishable, and what is more memorable than the joy and melancholy of love?
To love someone is a journey towards my own inner world. It's not a means to reach anywhere, it's an end in itself.
No love exists forever. Separation is inevitable at some point of life, be it in death or in this life itself. Still, it's cherishable, like gathering the petals of fallen grapefruit blossoms in the dawn. We know they are already drooping, yet we gather their fleeting fragrance in our palms.
It's like sitting together and looking in awe at the fireworks that light up the sky, rejoicing in their dazzling beauty, even though we know that in a moment the darkness will surge back again.
To admit that you have a crush on someone, be it online or irl, is always like a gamble. You may be accepted, or turned down. Even if you are accepted, it may not work out well. That doesn't mean that we shouldn't try, at least. After all, it's better to try and fail, than not ever trying at all.
P.S. @Lonelycity, surprisingly it turned out to be my answer to your profile post from long ago
