Dear Esmeralda,
Alright, here is the issue: I really like this girl and I’ve been working very closely with her on a production. We also have been together in numbers and I’ve had close interactions with her. Like really close we’d hold hands and blow kisses and stuff … I don’t know if it was just the character she was in or what. Also when I freaked out before a performance she came over and gave me a huge pep talk and it helped so much! It made my heart leap out of my chest.
My problem is I am too nervous to even talk to her about my feelings. Also I’m super flamboyant … Idk if she’s ok with that … She is flawless in every way and gah! I don’t even know what to do! What should I do???

Dear Crushed by a Crush,
Goodness, if this isn’t the most adorable thing I’ve read! You seem to really fancy this chick! Not gonna question what production it is but sounds like fun! It may just be the production and character she was portraying. The thing is, talking to her is the only thing that can really help you at this point. I know it’s hard but fear of the unknown mustn’t stop you!
Get a little confidence! Fear will eat away at you like a cannibal! Just try and tell her “Hey mama, you got me burning up!” Wait that’s a little silly … But you get the point! Just be yourself! Tell your worries hush hush, because you will survive! It may seem like girls run the world but you just have to let it rock! I know it may not seem like much coming from a stranger but we don’t have any bad blood. Just keep hanging on till the world ends, eventually you’ll find the beauty to your beat! Just get cha head in the game and don’t let the dark side of your thoughts scare you away from happiness! Don’t let any chains hold you back, you are a boss! Maybe she’ll think, “Where have you been all my life?” You’ll never know what can be done once you tame the cyclone of nerves. Spread your wings and fly! You got this!
Best of luck!
Esmeralda
