Enjoy the fantasy. And then, redouble your efforts to find joy in reality.
Unrequited love is simply a fact of human emotional life. Embrace it. And deal with it in the way you’d deal with unrequited love from a gay man you’d admired. By moving on.
Don’t stop crushing on guys, even if unrequited love is painful. Just based on probabilities, human attraction is pretty hit-and-miss. Most of Cupid’s arrows are duds. Kiss more frogs.
One of these days, your crush will crush back. And it will be worth it.
But if you’re ONLY crushing on straight guys....well, you're just not trying hard enough. There are plenty of gay fish in the sea.
Don’t mean to bust your chops, but as
@wsnki07 hinted, if you find you’re only attracted to straight guys, you might have a little internalized homophobia going on. No biggie. We’ve all been there. But the issue might be worth unpacking with a friend, a therapist, or a peer support group..
Best of luck to you in affairs of the heart,
