Yes, I guess that sometimes works...
I know how you feel, i hide my liking of BIONICLE from everyone except a select few people. It really sucks having people know. It sucks more not having the heart to go ask a girl out, despite everything. Take a chance, if you like someone, go for it, don't always expect a yes, because they could say no, expect no, and you wont get so crushed if they say no.
That's good advice... Keep the expectations low, so you can't be disappointed.
I don't hide anything about myself, except for my love of LEGO. I try to express myself as who I am.
Thanks everyone for the good advice.
