does anyone else worry that the feelings they have towards boys aren’t actually romantic feelings. Like i’m scared i just want to be protected and saved by boys but i don’t actually have romantic feelings for them. I feel like one of my favorite things about boys is the protection and safety they give off and i love when boys really care about you and want to protect u. But now i’m worried that that’s all i want and that i don’t really have romantic feelings. i’m so annoyed

exactly! like i’ve tried to firgured it out so much that as this point like i can’t even tell what’s true and what’s not at all

@hannah Yes same! Like I never worried or doubted how I have felt before but now pretty much everyday I worry about how I feel or lack of attraction. Sometimes I will be like oh she's pretty or nice and I immediately start to worry that that is actually attraction. Even though I know I have only ever had crushes on guys and it has never felt forced or like I feel this way because I think I have too.

@Mak46 yeah same i feel the same way:( it’s so hard like idk how to stop

@hannah Yeah I don't know either. And it's sometimes really hard for me to even tell what intrusive thought I had. And I also tend to say no in my head or actually shake my head no to the thoughts occasionally pretty much as soon as I get a thought. Then of course I worry all the time that it's not even ocd
