So, if I'm reading things correctly, and I think I am, I have just one question:

Is everyone in this school bent but me?!

I mean, I'm happy for everyone if they're happy, but this is severely limiting my chances of finding someone to snog.

I can safely say no.

[7thsunrising]

That makes all the girls then, as far as I know. All the girls and my brothers.

[a_bookish_witch]

There are more than us out there, don't worry. And you're a good witch, you'll find someone eventually, I'm sure.

Boys are just thick sometimes.

[7thsunrising]

Thank you! I hope so!

Trust me, I know. I grew up with Ron.

[a_bookish_witch]

You shall. There are plenty of eligible men out there, you know. And, as much as I hate to partially agree with Ron, he's right in that you are still young -- we all are -- so there's plenty of time still.

Coincidentally, I was going to use him as my case in point.

Fourteen is a perfectly respectable age to start looking, though.

He has no idea of it either.

[a_bookish_witch]

It is! There's just no need to get too frustrated yet, I think.
(Maybe I should ask, did you have your eye on anyone?)

Another common problem with men.

[7thsunrising]

There might be one or two that have caught my eye...

Exactly. I'm surprised it's not the girls that are all bent.

[a_bookish_witch]

Are they proclaimed bent?

....it is surprising, actually. But then, that's why Murphy's Law exists, I suppose.

[7thsunrising]

I don't know. And it's not like I can just waltz up to them and say 'Hey, are you bent?'

All good men are either bent or taken.

[a_bookish_witch]

It would be easier if that were socially acceptable, you're right.

Or downright gits.

[7thsunrising]

I'll just wait it out.

Or some combination of the three.
