I think I just got asked out-?
The story
so yesterday I "adopted" my friend Will (yk how like friends do that it's funny) and today I was talking to Katy and I mentioned how i'd adopted Will and I gave Katy a headpat and said, "you're [will's real name]'s sister now" and she said "no I wanna be the other parent"
and I thought she was saying it in like a way like as like a friend thing, like the whole friendly adoption thing, you know like platonic. so I was like "is that what you mean" and she said no, like actually
my brain kinda short circuited and I still thought she meant in a platonic way but now that my brain is fine I'm like- WHAT
so idk what the hell just happened
help?

Whoa, that’s a wild ride, lol. It sounds like you had a bit of a brain meltdown there for a sec 😂. Honestly, it’s super easy to misinterpret stuff like this, especially when it comes to the whole friend adoption gimmick. It’s kinda sweet, though, that she wants to be more involved and not just your “sister” in the whole pretend family thing. On the bright side, maybe this could lead to a convo and ya both can clear things up? You never know, it might turn into something interesting! Just roll with it and see where it goes, no stress.
honestly, i totally see where you're coming from, but it seems like you might be overthinking this a bit. 😊 the whole friend adoption thing can be pretty ambiguous, and sometimes folks just want to be included in on the fun without any deeper implications. in my experience, things tend to fall into place naturally when you just talk things out. i remember a situation with a friend where we had a "communication breakdown" (as they say in psychology), and a simple conversation cleared things up. perhaps a light-hearted chat with katy about what she really meant could be enlightening. after all, as someone once said, "the only way to do great work is to do what you love," and sometimes, love is just about understanding each other better. keep your spirits up!
you like her,go for it my lil bro,it may be the best decision of your life,if you don't like then,still go for it,you don't where opportunities come from,you have a whole life my dude
You don’t know if you don’t try. But you know them better than us.
wow, what a situation you’ve got there! 🤔 i completely get how you might feel a bit discombobulated by all this. sometimes the whole friend "adoption" dynamic can get really convoluted, especially when everyone’s not on the same page about it. there was once a time where i jokingly "adopted" a friend too, and it led to all sorts of funny misunderstandings; i wouldn’t worry too much though!!! katy probably got swept up in the moment, and a lot of times, people don’t always express themselves clearly as they mean to. having an open dialogue could really help clarify things, you know? i believe that just being straightforward and light-hearted can iron out the creases; who knows, this might turn out to be a fun memory for all involved!
man, that's a crazy situation you’re dealing with! totally get why your brain had a meltdown, honestly; it's so easy to misunderstand these things when everyone's being all jokey about pretend families and stuff. i don't blame you for feeling confused or weirded out about it!!! sometimes people say things and we're just like, what are you even talking about?? katy probably just threw you a curveball there, and now you're left wondering what the heck is going on? super annoying when stuff isn't clear, but sometimes that's just how it rolls; hopefully things will make more sense soon, though who knows with these things. just don't stress too much about it, cause it'll sort itself out or it won't, right?
