So, among my various friendships and moreships and relationships and pirateships, I have one friend who, for almost a decade now⁰, I've had some minor-to-major degree of crush on them.

(This is a little unusual. My crushes tend to be VERYSTRONG...and then fade, and once they fade, they're pretty much gone forever. I almost never keep having a crush on someone over a period of years. Note that I count crush in a very different category from "person who I've built a romantic relationship with" --love is not at first sight, love is the fifty years you spend together afterwards.)

I've mentioned this to them in the past, they're not interested, that's cool, whatever¹. We're still friends, in sortof that slightly tenuous high school way where when we're actually in the same place it's awesome, but neither of us puts significant effort into keeping up with each other online. So, it's admittedly been a couple years since I last saw them, and a few months since I last spent thought on them.

And then they showed up in my dreams last night. Wearing ~*~glasses~*~² which are basically my number one sexy kryptonite^{3, 4} forever, and so dream!me was SUPER RIDICULOUS SWOONING over dream!them. And then in the dream, they rejected my advances again, and I just...yeah.

So I woke up kinda frustrated and amused-annoyed, and hoping that this isn't some sort of ill portent regarding my current short-term crush that I'm trying to make something happen with.

MOOP!

0: I entered the ninth grade ten years ago this August. WHAT. THE. WHAT?!

1: One of the best-ever things about being me and or poly is that when people reject me, I can go have mind-blowing sex (or whatever) with one of my established partners and it pretty much completely kills any pity-party for being rejected.

2: It turns out, thinking about it later, that they already wear glasses, so my swooning in the dream was slightly more ridiculous than it already was. But the dream!glasses were very distinctive! I guess that makes them squeeworthy?

3: Assuming "sexy kryptonite" means things that you find so jaw-droppingly appealing that your brain crawls out your ears and replaces itself with an extra drool gland.

4: Other sexy kryptonite for Kat: biting, boys in dresses or skirts, (sometimes) kilts, other...stuff? Yeah.

As someone who's dreamed about an unrequited crush before, I sympathize. Incidentally, I actually (privately) posted an account of a dream I had to my LJ earlier today, an odd (albeit only tangentially related) coincidence.
