I know some of you are gonna think I'm an awful persom because of this but honestly I'm trying to do the right thing.
Ok so heres the backstory. Im 18f from the UK. In the first couple weeks of lockdown, I began talking to two guys, one we will call Steve and one we will call George.
Steve is a drummer for a band in America and he randomly followed me on instagram after spotting me on explore. The minute that I saw him I got butterflies in my stomach, I cant explain it, i just thought wow. Hes amazing. This is the first time in over a year i have felt this way about anyone, just being completely drawn to a person and not being able to get them out of my head. Steve and i have a few conversations and after a week he starts replying very sporadically. I knew from the start it was unlikely anything could happen between us.
George is from where I am, only 30 minutes drive away. He is sweet, sensitive, decent looking and all round a very nice person. I really like him. But I'm not having the explosive crazy feelings for him that I have for steve. Me and george arent official, we havent even met in person yet, but he definitely has huge feelings for me.
I KNOW I should choose george. I KNOW I should just block Steve and never speak to him again. My head is screaming YOUVE FINALLY FOUND AN AMAZING GUY, DONT LET HIM GO. DONT RUIN THIS. But at the same time theres this nagging voice saying BUT STEVE. STEVE IS THE MOST AMAZING MAN YOUVE EVER SEEN. YOU NEED THAT MAN IN YOUR LIFE.
Im trying really really hard to forget about steve but nothings working. It seems that I finally stop thinking about him and then something happens and hes back in my brain again, whether it's a new song release or a sponsored Instagram post. I know that maybe I'm being superficial, and that perhaps Steve isnt that nice of a guy seeing as I'm lucky to get 2 texts a day from him. But my god, he will not leave my mind. Every post with him in it my heart does a little somersault. Every time I see him I have to take a breath.
What on earth am I supposed to do? Help!!
TL; DR: Fell in love with an american drummer I've never seen, but have a perfectly good guy here in the UK that I just cant feel the same about.
