Am I dumb for wishing I loved someone?

I understand what you mean, but here's something to consider. If you're feeling apprehensive now, things may only get worse if you don't end up falling for the guy. Just because someone has gone through the trouble to show that they care about you doesn't mean that it has to be requited. You certainly don't want to feel obligated to love somebody back. Then it's just a chore. I've been in situations where I'm feeling lonely, and I know I could hook up with a girl who's been in love with me forever. But then I consider that her feelings run much deeper than mine do, and then neither of us would really get what we need. She's looking for something long term, and I'm looking for a distraction to fill an immediate void. From what I know of you on here, you're an awesome guy. Don't settle for anything but a guy as awesome as you.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
