I'm forcing myself to move on.\u003cbr\u003eMaybe the best way to forget about my forbidden crush is to find a new one.\u003cbr\u003eI have options. More than I realized.\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately, none of them are leather-wearing, tattoo-sporting, motorcycle-riding grumpholes.\u003cbr\u003eSo here I am wishing for Max while someone else wishes for me.\u003cbr\u003eSomeone who decides if they can't have me...\u003cbr\u003eNo one will. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003ePlease note that WISH contains homophobia.
