okay, I had a cool interaction today but my Aro Ace self cant figure out if the person was flirting with me.
(I hope yall know hamilton, italics is sung)

so im in the little convenience shop on campus after my class. I go up to the register to pay and the guy at the register scans my stuff, like normal. then he says, "hey, so I saw the buttons on your backpack and you strike me as a woman who has never been satisfied" I proceed to burst into a big smile and giggle instead of quoting the next lyric like I wish I did. He says that he loves hamilton and then I pay and leave and he wishes me a good day and I say you too, like a normal interaction
the thing is, I just realised that the lyric he quoted is hamilton flirting with Angelica……
so
was he flirting??????? am I reading too far into this???????? could it have been flirting?? how am I supposed to know???

(im gonna go get dinner with my mom so if I dont respond for a while that's why. please give input i is confusion and awkward bean)

@actual-fandom-trash

That sounds like an amazing encounter tbh
And I mean maybe? I never know about these things. It sounds like it could be flirting but it could also just be him being social and cool.

My dad and I were talking about me being bi and he was like "it's fine i'll just let god handle you now"
and it's like?? i'm not an object?? i can be christian without being straight???

@Moxie group

I feel like it’s not flirting. That’s a very forward line from the show, and if he was flirting by saying that line then the line wouldn’t mean what Hamilton was going for in this scene. (Does that make sense? I’m bad at explaining things) what exactly are the buttons on your backpack? That might be good information in this situation

My mom did the same, but about me being pan

@evastardust groupRRAAAARRL

I mean it's a well-known line to one of (if not the) most well-known song, so I could read into it either way?
That sounds awesome though, I wish people would walk up to me and quote Hamilton at me

that sucks, guys, I'm sorry
The only way I'm ever coming out to my Christian parents is by telling them I have a date at x time and when they ask 'with who?' replying with a girl's name

@PuffPoff

If you guys have Instagram I recommend following queersforchrist because they have a bunch of stuff that I would really like to yell in the faces of some certain Christians that don't understand what Christianity is really about

@blue_topaz

I 100% stan
Like, I don't get why it's 'bad' for people to be Christian and queer! I'm (loosely) Christian! I'm queer! What is wrong with that?

Kind of off topic but holy heck I've officially been on this site for a year
