Awkward Accurate Romantic Interaction
I got the idea for this piece from a boy who had a crush on me. We used to be closer friends, but then his messages became weird and truncated, like he was choosing his words carefully. His side of our online conversations felt as if there was something he wanted to say but deflected the awkward feeling by falling back on ‘LOL’s and ‘LMAO’s.
I think romance is a weird and awkward thing for everyone, especially now when we’re all stuck at home and forced to communicate solely through our phones. There is so much to say, but with no authentic way to say it. We follow a word limit, rely on strange emojis, and thus hide away our real and honest feelings to stop ourselves from being hurt.
