genuinely i donβt think itβs possible to easily explain the explicit part of online friendships to people who donβt Understand. i donβt mean like, explicit in the sense of βoh youβre sextingβ or whatever. no. i mean when you and your friend start gleefully making up explicit sexual scenarios for your shared blorbos and you get giddier and giddier as you add more detail and youβll be grinning at your screen as you type away at mach speeds. and itβs entirely nonsexual in an interpersonal sense, youβre not really getting Into it, but ohhhhh itβs soooooo fun and satisfying. and you can NEVER tell someone who doesnβt also do this that your mood is actively improved like fivefold because you and your friend played Sexual Tuoys together because theyβll go βwhat the FUCK.β
