Journey to Love Thoughts
Ep 2
1. The opening theme song starts out giving CLJ and LY7T opening theme vibes.
2. Ooh here comes the didi-shaped sidekick in poor health issues with fluffy bangs and sass for days.
3. I'm like so confused isn't returning home from army when your freaking leader the King is held hostage and stuff considered deserting? In ep 1 I thought he's going to live a runaway life in hiding from now on! But he's here out in the open and rocking babygirl hair and white night robes? I guess he's really that privileged.
4. I like how the characters with so much confidence and presence a second ago just drop off dead in the very next in this show. Yeah, death in brutal and absolutely unexpected like that I guess.
5. Mmmm the An kingdom's Marquis Changqing is a tsundere
6. Here comes the lil meimei character whom all the characters AND the viewers swear on protecting! Goodness she holds so much raw willpower but is going to get put through absolute wringer isn’t she

Ep 3
7. Hell yeah she is. Prayer circle for her starts now πŸ™
8. FL, ML and ML's didi guy's dynamic feels like MJTY's SGQ, GSJ and GYZ dynamic but made more reasonable, grounded, leaning comparatively more towards bite side in bite/bark spectrum AND with less bling blings. (Also I have to say I'm more biased towards Yuanzhi didi regardless πŸ˜‚ The only person I could tolerate the over-the-top ness in that show)
Really, Journey to Love keeps giving me feels like it's the show I wanted MJTY be, which was all surface level glamor and barely anything underneath.
If Journey to Love could have some of MJTY's sleek production values it would've looked really good (seriously it bothers me why JTL isn't on movie-scale screen, the full screen scale doesn't seem to bring out that extra *something* that needs to be the there. It seems awfully cramped? Especially with all the action scenes and TaLL that's going on?
9. I have never seen a more honest antagonist Prime minister character. I support him. Very cool. (Granted he keeps his principles)
10. Ning ge (lol I'm loving we can legit keep calling him that, as his character is also Ning) has started winking for every minor thing and I'm not sure if I like that. I sense a major off-balancing of the tone of the show!
11. Didi flies a drone!!!
12. Ey what was that look in Shisan's eyes when he saw Ning ge lol. I'm loving Shisan already!! All the badass teams in the world need their laidback heartthrob boy.
SO many actors I already know and love are in this show! 😍😍😍
13. Errr the tone has shifted from Serious historical vibe political detective adventure to Wuxie team-travel adventure with Politics like in Sword Snow Stride and I'm starting to feel this role is more like Zhang Ruoyun's forte..... it's not the easiest to sell if you keep jumping among personalities and not stick with one... stop winking and crossing arms like you own the place! You were different just one ep ago!
14. OK it has officially gone off the rails.

What the heck was that. It's giving the polar opposite genre of what I thought you were going to be, show!!!
I'm officially confused. Dreading clicking on ep 4 now.

Hello! So, I've been doing quite some research and figuring a lot about myself. I know I'm ace and demiromantic, but I don't know If I'm bi or a lesbian.
I've been calling myself a bisexual person since I'm 12, because I didn't care much about people's gender.
Now that I know that I'm ace and that I'm not attracted to men, I just have gender envy, I don't know If I would date a men or not. I know that I could date, women or people that are out of the binary spectrum. But I'm not that sure about men.
Do you have any advice? :']
Hi! First of all thanks for your ask, I really appreciate that you had the courage to send it in and I know that it can confusing and complicated to figure everything out πŸ₯Ί. I admire you already!
My advice... well, I should mention that you don't really need to figure out which label fits best, and if a label starts feeling more constricting than freeing its probably not a good idea to keep using it. Maybe sapphic or queer can be enough. Though I also understand the other side of the coin where we sometimes want a label to feel seen, validated and like we belong so I understand the wanting to describe yourself with one. Either way, your confusion is understandable and valid. Whatever you choose to label yourself is absosutely wonderful! Don't forget that πŸ₯°β˜ΊπŸŒˆ.
Now to your question... how do you know if you're bi or a lesbian (I am guessing you're referring to romantic attraction bc you've stated you're asexual) ... that's a very complex question and one you can only answer for yourself. For me, realizing I'm asexual made it easier to accept that I didn't feel attracted to men romantically either bc those feelings have never been there... If it's dating what you're pondering, whether you could date men too or only women/non-binary spectrum people, it's up to you really. If you're one for casual dating then you know your boundaries and your desires best, what feels more comfortable and more like you. And if your answer is anyone regardless of gender feels right, then AMAZING! If your answer is certain gender(s) only, then that's AMAZING too!
I know that, being demiromantic, the romantic attraction takes time to develop for us and sometimes the gender plays or doesn't play a factor in that attraction and both are valid ways to be demiromantic!! πŸ’š Remember that you could also date someone even if the attraction is not there, many cupioromantic people could explain this.
In my case, I realized that I only experience romantic attraction to people of my same/similar gender after an emotional bond has been created because I saw the pattern in crushed I'd had πŸ˜‚ AND also considered a long term relationship with a woman and it just felt right. I'd never felt that way towards a man, hence why I am a lesbian. Plus it has been like this since I was very young so I may not be the best person to ask πŸ˜…. BUT I hope this helps. Remember that whatever label you decide to use is up to you only!! Wishing you the best of lucks!
