Hi! 🙂👋 I’m newer here and am starting to gain a following, so I figured I’d share this again.

I’m 24 and have spent several years, until recently, in a relationship with a man who once taught me.

Entering into such a relationship can be complicated, rocky, and not always worth it. On the flip side, I imagine it can sometimes be worth the challenges and obstacles and can, under the right circumstances, end well for all parties involved!

Developing feelings for someone older can be totally normal, especially when it involves a teacher. Someone intelligent who cares about my success? And maybe they’re physically attractive... What’s not to like? But I want to stress that not every feeling is meant to be acted on. Daydreaming is normal. Heck, I’m an expert there! Scroll through my page and you’ll see what I mean! Talking out your feelings (with someone who is not them) is normal and encouraged.

If anyone has any questions for me, feel free to send an ask, anon or not, and I’ll speak candidly about my experience!

—G 💋

[I want to note that I do not advocate for or condone relationships where one of the parties is not of legal age, nor do I recommend that you or anyone approach your teacher or professor when you’re still a student of theirs or while you still attend the institution at which they teach.]

Family law 💕 There are 3 more days before a test that will decide the fate of 20% of the final grade. I only read about 200 pages out of 330. And when I’m done reading, I have to repeat everything. Most likely, I’ll make some mind maps and some really condensed study guides. It’s gonna be such an exciting weekend…not 📖🆘

I want to feel worthy.

I just wrote 4 midterms back to back. I found out I didn’t do as well as I was hoping I did on the first one. This is a very very common occurrence. Ever since first year, I would study hard for an exam. I would write the exam and leave feeling confident and proud of the work I did. Then I would be given a much much lower mark than I was expecting. I thought, maybe it’s just the transition from high school to university. But this has continued with me even into my third year. As someone who received relatively high marks throughout elementary and high school, I’m pretty devastated. Marks may not define you, but they certainly can determine your future to some degree. I’m afraid my GPA won’t be high enough to get into the post undergrad programs I want. I’m so afraid that no matter what I do, I’ll never be good enough. I’m surrounded by friends who often talk to me proudly about how hard they studied for their latest exam and all the high marks they received. Some will even say they absolutely failed it when the exam is over but find out that they received 100 when the marks are released. I know it’s not fair to compare myself to others but it’s so so hard not to. I’m honestly feeling really lost right now. I don’t know what to do. I wanted to share this partially to vent and partially to keep record of not just my highs but also my lows. I hope that a week from now, a month from now, a year from now I’m in a much better place mentally and emotionally and physically. I’m so tired and drained and burned out and idk what to do. If you’ve read this far, thank you for listening to my ramblings.

Day 15: stationary store of choice

well, I live somewhere in the middle of nowhere but my local independent stationary store is pretty good. Unfortunately they don’t have anything by Muji, I’d really like trying that out… 

Anyway, those above are my favourite supplies for studying :)

Do you ever become desensitized to your own trauma?? Like you’ve been dealing with it for so long that when you accidentally let it slip out in conversation and the persons like “um oh my god?” You’re like wow I forgot my life has been one unspeakable horror after another #noted

The best thing about Loki is, if he is afraid, he won’t show it. He’s been highly trained through the experience of his slightly traumatic life to shield his fear. -Tom Hiddleston
