“If there’s any kind of magic in this world… it must be in the attempt of understanding someone, sharing something. I know it’s almost impossible to succeed… but who cares, really? The answer must be in the attempt.”
i don't want to just be in your way. should i just stop asking how your day was? you never want to tell me. what fuckin use am i? it doesn't have to be you but most of the time i really wish someone would ask me how my day was because they're really not going well. sometimes i feel like i should just be more mean, that way you'd actually be afraid of losing me, you'd have an incentive to be my friend. but the truth is you could hate my guts and i'd feel absolutely the same. what's wrong with me, why am i not worth talking to? i know you're extremely unhappy but isn't that when you need your best friends the most? idk. you're not going to see this and i just wanted to vent. if you do don't take any stock in it, it's been a fuckin terrible week and i'm being stupid and angry with myself
this is the absolute sweetest thing I’ve seen in my entire life. i wish nothing but the absolute best for this dude for the rest of his life, he deserves it more than any of us
I wasn’t asked to a single dance in high school and didn’t have a serious romantic relationship until I was 22. And like, yeah that shit hurt when I was younger. I had a lot of fears that I was unlovable and that I didn’t deserve to be happy. And every time I would try to talk to anyone about it, the conversation became, “you’ll find someone”, when it should have been, “you don’t need a relationship or a date, you’re lovable & complete & beautiful on your own”.
So yeah, please normalize young people not dating, and please stop shaming them for it. There’s more to life than romance, despite what the media wants us to think.
