Erasure – Ship of Fools Lyrics 6 years ago
Beautiful song, I find it relating to my current situation. Have recently fallen for relatively new, slightly younger and closeted colleague (matched on a dating app is how I know!).
He doesn't know the extent to which I like him- "why can't you see what you're doing to me my head is spinning?"
The lyrics about him being young and uncertain accurately describe him. Whilst we are in regular contact, and there are definite feelings there, he seems too scared to let me any closer. My heart breaks for him that even now in 2019, he still seems to fear being who he truly is. There is a lot of potential there, I just hope he can overcome it one day!

Heart – Alone Lyrics 6 years ago
I relate very, very strongly to this song at the moment. For many years I was happy being single, until now. I had a slightly awkward situation whereby I matched with a guy on a gay dating app, which he suddenly blocked. It became clear as to why he did this the very next day, as he was being introduced in our department at work as a new colleague.
As the weeks have gone on, seeing him every day, I have fallen madly, desperately in love with him. Trying to "get him alone" and in a proper conversation has proven very difficult as he is very nervous around me, presumably because he must be closeted and I knew his secret. His sweet shyness only endears him even more to me. As does his tendency to try and subtly glance up at me with his beautiful eyes each time I pass his desk.
Last week, I threw caution to the wind, and I asked him out via message. But I kept it casual so as not to freak him out. It ripped my heart out but he admitted he was talking to someone else. I was too late. That said, talking to was all he said, and it otherwise may have been a yes judging by the signals I've had. I don't give up hope just yet, my heart simply isn't ready to.
But he's still hard to get alone in person, my love for him is still unknown, and I'm still alone. And it breaks me every day.

Queen – Breakthru Lyrics 6 years ago
Right now, this song speaks so much to me. I have an enormous crush on a guy at work, and I cannot figure out whether he likes me back or not. Working towards that final breakthrough, which I guess would be getting the answer I want from asking him out!
