Search Results: guys expressing feelings

I'm in a totally cliché one-sided crush situation. I met this guy on Discord through a mutual gaming friend of ours and almost instantly fell head over heels for him. After over a year of having these bottled feelings, my friends from high school dared me to confess. I told him exactly what was going through my head, and he said he was flattered. Hopefully this is a good sign for me. Soon I'm going to move out of my mom's house in Chicago and head to my aunt's place just outside D. C. He also lives on the East Coast and I'm hoping something will happen. However, I find that I'm a completely different person online than I am offline. It's not a situation of a false personality; far from it. I just find it so much easier to express who I am when I don't have to stand face-to-face with another person (especially strangers) and risk letting an inside joke or pop culture reference slip to make me look like a psycho. I feel free from judgement and especially in this circle of Discord servers I feel like I belong somewhere for the first time in my life. In person, I'm a very shy, quiet, reserved, mousy girl who you'd see reading for hours in a bookshop. Online, I'm a cheery and outgoing goon who can easily make friends with anyone and who knows her way around any FPS or RPG. Both sides come through and blend a bit when I'm with close friends or family. Would this contrast be a relationship dealbreaker?
