i feel weird cuz someone’s flirting w me and while ive flirted back to them ive kinda realized i dont rlly want a relationship w them but like . i kinda feel like an asshole cuz having flirted w them before makes me feel like im leading them on and like thats not what i wanted to do i just acted before making up my mind and ughghghhh im stupid 😭😭😭

@ellie YOURE NOT!!! people change minds all the time!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ffff

also to be fair you can just flirt if you feel like it as long as you make it clear you don't want anything to come fromvit

but
telling someone what you think for own comfortable so important!

@ellie nah you're not an asshole for that

people change their minds all their time

trust me, the absolute best thing you can do is be up front with them and just tell them how you feel

leading them on would be if you knew you didn't want a relationship, but instead you intentionally told them you wanted one

you can absolutely flirt with someone without the intention of forming a relationship, as well
