Can't believe this is gonna be my first post on here, awkwaaard lol.

This place is full of romantics. I've met a bunch of Witches and Monsters who're getting together in pairs, three-of-a-kinds, and some are even going for full houses. I'm in a bit of a pickle and I'd like some advice on the problem, since everyone's probably way better at figuring this stuff out than me. And, actually, it's more like a couple of problems? Because I really, really like two separate people.

I know this is a story as old as time and if I don't be careful I could make a huge mess of everything, but I genuinely don't know what to do with myself. "You can't have your cake and eat it, too," is a really relevant expression to use here, I feel, and overall I've got so little experience asking one person out let alone multiple. Both of them are unique and couldn't be more different, which is probably what's making the decision on who to try for so difficult. They're both funny and attractive, but one's super smart, affectionate, and dynamic, while the other's strong, willful, and considerate.

What are your thoughts? Am I overthinking it, or being too callous? Having crushes on your friends is normal, but how about moving forward with both of them? Sorry if this is weird, or no one actually gives a shit. I do, and I hope to hear from you. Thanks!

P.S. You don't need to get all detective on me just because I'm anon, but if you do figure out who this is? Please don't be a dick and spread your knowledge (totally wishful thinking, but I think I've been cool enough with everyone and I hope they don't think I deserve that).

P.P.S. If the people I'm talking about figure out who this is? Yikes, first of all, but no pressure. I mean it.

[Does Sasuke even know this is about him? Please, little brother, live up to his expectations...]

It's also possible that this posting was an attempt to take it seriously.

[ Stop having expectations please. ]

Do you actually think this is a reasonable way to handle this kind of problem?

[anbu]

No. The public nature of this is potentially humiliating for all parties involved, if their identities are ever revealed. But perhaps this individual could not handle the issue alone, though it would be wiser.

[eyeforaneye]

Why are you mounting a defense for this behavior when I know you don't agree with it?

[ THAT'S SUSPICIOUS ]

[anbu]

It's best to consider all possible perspectives, even if you disagree with them.

[What a beautiful life lesson in here.]

[eyeforaneye]

Understanding is useful but a life lived within a grey area doesn't preclude the existence of right and wrong, or good ideas and bad ideas.

[anbu]

You seem to have a strong opinion toward the nature of this topic.

[eyeforaneye]

I have a strong opinion about most things.

I'm also old enough now to recognize when you begin to use philosophy to cloud your true feelings because you want to remain objective.

private.

[anbu]

[Ouch. That's about a decade overdue.]

The post is about you, Sasuke.

perma-private.

[ The next reply takes significantly longer to come. ]

Don't be too hard on him. [ Everything is starting to make sense now even while making no sense at all. ]

[Surprisingly, Itachi decides not to answer this message. Going further down the avenue of this conversation is... uncomfortable, far more with Sasuke than Jonas. He has no practice discussing these topics.

And there's little to say to that, anyway, if what he understands is Sasuke trying to protect (shield?) Jonas from him. Sasuke's on his own from here.]
