Wait so you jumped straight to saying you only like girls when you're so very clearly bi?

I used to have a friend like you, she lied alot too. Unlike her you recognize you need to reflect on grow. Judging from your post you have a lot of living and a lot of learning left to do. Be sure to keep you mind open, be the best person you can be, and don't be ashamed of who you are.

But lying and causing yourself anxiety will only reward you with complication.

You did the right thing. I, 35M, have a female bestie that everyone swears we would be perfect together. We both have been through messy relationships and are just happy to still have each other. She's still getting over a rough divorce, and you can see the progress from a few years ago. There are times that I feel we would be amazing together, but I wouldn't trade that friendship for anything. Even now, after almost 20 years of being close friends, we still call each other up randomly and hang out til the wee hours cooking, watching shows, talking, doing puzzles, or going out places like in college. Maybe one day down the road we'll end up being more, but I can confidently say that I'm glad we never tried forcing it to that next stage from peer pressure.

You’ve taken over an ounce of shrooms in one sitting? Jesus. I pick psilocybe cyanescens which are stronger than liberty caps and take 3.5 g when I trip. Most I’ve taken is 7 g which was intense but not in a bad way. Even with liberty caps not being as potent as cyanescens, 30 g sounds insane.

I kind of went the other way. I was overly cautious. And often hid my feelings for someone completely. I also absolutely refused to show any interest at all and girls that my friends were interested in, my friends ex-girlfriends, my friends younger or older sisters or friends of an ex girlfriend. Retrospectively I have learned that I missed out on a lot of relationships that could possibly have been very good relationships. Unfortunately the few times that I did end up mentioning that I had feelings for someone in one of those categories it was usually too late at that point the moment had passed.

Hi there! I am a player of TTRPGs since 2004. I have found dozens of similar games from fanmade to official ones. I have even got my player on a fully improvised adventure with all fresh ideas I had never used before, until one of my players ask me if I was taking inspiration in a manga I didn't knew it existed that was clearly a mirror of the adventure. You can't creat something new. But you can create a new gaze upon something. Look D&D, dungeon world, pathfinder, starfinder and so many more take a pot of it and made a new version. Don't beat yourself because there are a lot of games with a lot of different settings, rules and characters that are similar to other already made. And if you made your own Shadow run, my recommendation(from someone who tried several times to do what you are doing), compare them. You can see where you got different rules and solutions, where you took the same answer as the developers and where you choose different. I mean look it to learn from it. And if you think you can't use it, think or 5he Divine Comedy, it's a fanfiction of the bible with a self insert from the author in wich he meets his favorite writer and team up to rescue the woman he loves. If Dante could pubish that, you can make something with yours.

TL,DR: complete originally don't exist. And that is not bad. Dust yourself and keep creating. Sorry for the bad English. It's not my first lenguaje.

I would just be honest and say something along the lines of, I said that because I was feeling that at the time but honestly I’m a little confused and would like to work this out alone rather than in a relationship. Completely reasonable. Good luck

I don’t think this is that abnormal tbh. Don’t get me wrong, this sounds like a uniquely horrifying experience, and 3 grams does seem like a low dose for these effects. But even the cleanest psychedelics can 100% produce these types of experiences in the right quantity and with the right set and setting. Ego loss is a hell of a thing.
