/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>tfw mutually followed by cosplayer you have a crush on
>tfw their posts make you feel closer to them, but you'll never get to know them personally

This happened to me when I cosplayed a female protag of a game and someone posted a picture of me on tumblr.
>reblogs it saying I'm that cosplayer
>gets followed by handsome guy who happened to be cosplaying the male protag of the same series at the con (too bad we never found each other)
>followed him back after seeing similar interests
>dashboard goes from slow and boring to being filled with his posts (I don't follow many people in the first place)
>gets persuaded to try new games/shows from seeing his posts (which now are my favorites)
>gets a feeling I understand him from his personal posts
>crush intensifies
>starts subconsciously posting things he would probably like. my tastes are most likely molded from his.
>year passes. still never contacted him.

God dammit. I wish we found each other that one day, because I would have felt a lot more comfortable messaging him if I we met in person. Now it's too late and I'm not sure if I'll ever meet him in person because it turns out he's not much of a convention goer.
