“She’s failing, she has a B+” is honeslty one of the most relatable things I’ve ever heard as a Hispanic 1st generation. It’s nice to see representation of immigrant parents with high standards

[@PiBook5906]

There needs to be a follow up where Leilany and Ash get back together. Leilany needs to accept & love herself for who she is and be with the one she loves. Also, James needs to get his ass kicked for outing Leilany; there’s no excuse for what he did.

[@fmangelesproductions5353]

THANK YOU!!

[@erialccrasher970]

Oh, this is cool, I love it, so realistic. I thought her friendship with James goes 💯% support but nah, sometimes when you're hurt you do things you hate. I understand her choice but she should try to be herself,..may this story have a continuation.

[@tracyrichardson9743]

It's a great touch when she was reading a gay book

[@user-qv1ip3xn3r]

OMG! This was awesome, I loved it! The final was so sad, cause the two together are too cute. I saw that this is a really true story, that peaple are really in the high school and those things happening a lot, but is too sad. Thank you for the film, I identified myself how the rejected person. Soo good, continue the amazing work!!!

[@potatochip4877]

This reminded me of the song “little miss perfect”

[@jordanabarcelos3733]

I couldn't stop laughing that her mother seems to have her age hahahahaha

[@luvanime1986]

Even as a teenager I knew playing with another person's feelings and emotions was horrible, and I grew up in a fundamentalist christian cult. But this girl knew she was never going to go against her mother, so she led this girl on and then dumped her like the breakfast garbage and walked off without any emotions. This is what bothers me about many of the religious/ethnic based families be they christian, muslim, asian, whatever. Don't start something you can't finish, because you aren't the only person you will end up hurting, and that's not right. My older brother was gay (until his murder at 34, RIP Bro), but he did not begin to date until he had moved out of our fundie parent's house into his own place so he could do what he wanted. He probably didn't like to wait, but he himself was not the only consideration, that's what this girl should have done. Or at least have show some remorse for what she put that girl through! WTF

[@fmangelesproductions5353]

Your brother truly sounds like an amazing person and I look up to his selflessness. It is horrible what happened to him, I hope he is resting peacefully and I know he would be happy that you are sharing his story for the better.

[@headbangermetalhead7358]

I have a question. If you never felt like this with no one(neither male or female), is this means you may be asexual?

[@fmangelesproductions5353]

From what I understand Asexuality is when you don't feel any sexual attraction to other people but you still can feel romantic attraction but also you can identify to whatever makes you comfortable and where ever on the spectrum you think you fall under. You should definitely do your own research and self reflecting to help you figure it out. Either way I'm proud of you and hope you find your answer!

[@everesttt9937]

that sounds more like Aromantic to me, but it’s definitely a good thing to research on your own!
