For months now I've been completely enamored in this person who attends the same school as I do. Not romantically- I have a girlfriend, she's the love of my life. This person- his name is Nathaniel- fascinated me in another way. It's less that I want him romantically (I don't) but more that I really want to be him, or perhaps to get to know him. If anything, to be his friend, at least. But it's been months and I don't know how to approach him. He seems to understand the way my brain works in a way even I don't, and he's everything I wish I was. I don't know what to do.
this seems like what's called a friend crush! i would recommend following him on social media and then responding to his posts and whatnot to get closer :)
