My crush asked me why I'm so quiet and I'm kind of upset about it Don't get me wrong, 9 times out of 10, people don't have any bad intentions when asking that. It's just that when I was younger, if someone asked me that, and my parents overheard, they'd hit me when I got home. But yes, my crush asked me why I was so quiet. I just kind of brushed over it and told him I prefer listening. He then asked me what I like to do for fun. So I told him. I don't know. It's not a big deal, really. I just get self conscious that he thinks I'm weird, or creepy, like so many other people in the past.
