He knows none of my secrets and yet he wants to kiss me — this is not flattering in the least. Fine, secrets may come down the road. Scars too. But smiles? Did he see my full range of smiles? Did he see the smile after the lame joke he cracks and the smile after I say something bold and the smile after I hear him say something a bit too earnestly sweet? Maybe he did. Maybe my issue is that unless everything is spoken, narrated like in a book or movie, my brain refuses to believe it exists. But actions. I don't even know what's the benchmark? I know the benchmark for words. Bur what about actions? For that I need to be less in my room, in my bed, on my phone like I am 16 and more out with you and him and the others for spontaneous karaoke nights and then crash at your place waking up to the quite nice iced coffee you make. But I'm not. I'm here. I'm trapped. I feel more trapped than I did as a teenager. Is that it? Is all my sadness and all my frustration just fomo and discomfort? That's funny. Not funny haha but funny I want to smash something so very hard into the mirror even if it's my hand.

I just realised that I will not be able to watch (and live-blog) tomorrow's episode of Last Twilight because I will be riding on an airplane back to Australia 😭😭😭
Why, gods? Why?

from the makers of FOMO we introduce:
P O M O
proud of missing out
Just let go!
Forget about all of those people on your Instagram feed at campfires, mountain trekking or somehow sunbathing on a yacht.
TURN YOUR PHONE OFF and let go.
Be PROUD of not knowing the latest memes or trends, just take some MUSHROOMS and go to the park.
DO WHATEVER OR DO NOTHING
but be proud
be
PROUD OF MISSING OUT

Tomorrow I get on a plane and I won't be home for over three months. I won't see my partner or my cats again until summer. During that time, I'll be working every day, sometimes 10-12 hour days.
I'm not complaining, this is a choice I made willingly. I work very hard for a short period and then get to sleep in and play video games in my pajamas the rest of the year.
But right now, as I'm packing, I feel intense sadness. I regret not doing more in my time off this past year. I'm thinking about all the stuff I won't get to do because of time zones and schedules and lack of spoons.
And I'm afraid. Afraid that without constant interaction, people will forget about me. Afraid of missing out. Afraid that no one will miss me.
This is very silly and self centered, of course. I know this. And soon I'll be filled with a sense of purpose for my work and that will propel me to the finish line before I know it. I'll find moments along the way for creative outlet. Some of my best writing has actually happened during peak busy season.
So, everything's gonna be fine. But just right in this moment, it doesn't feel fine.

I live in Norway and I'm currently a russ. I've been sick for the last couple days and it's giving me major fomo since I originally had plans this weekend and this only last for about a month. I'm in a small concept group, we don't host big parties or anything. When we hang out I feel good, but they don't want to go to the big events. All of it makes me feel lonely, and like i'm not getting everything I could out of this time. I want to be young and dumb without feeling like I'm ruining my future because exams start right after it's done. I've barely done anything that goes with it. Unremarkable parties and unmemorable hook-ups. I think I'm overthinking everything, but I thought this was supposed to be better?

Crazy stay at home wife
No I am not crazy, but you can ask my husband to be sure.
After all the output of energy yesterday, it finally fizzled out when I realised that it was the 25th of April and I was missing my friend's wedding cz I cannot get on a flight cz I have an ear infection.
Honestly I think this is the first time I felt FOMO in my life. I cant believe I missed it. I cannot. I couldn't go and I dont think I can make it to the reception, which is next week cz I dont think I can still fly. So once that realisation hit, I did what I usually do when I am sad, I ordered some dessert. It did not make me feel better but I think I have a cold now. Which will make my ear infection worse. God help me.

Dear Diary,
I can't help but feel like I'm missing out on something. Every time I open up social media, I see posts from friends and acquaintances about events, parties, and other fun activities that I wasn't invited to. I know I shouldn't let it get to me, but the fear of missing out (FOMO) is real, and it's starting to affect my daily life.
I find myself spending hours scrolling through my feed, trying to keep up with what everyone else is doing. I compare myself to others and feel like I'm not living my life to the fullest. I even find myself making plans that I don't necessarily want to do, just so I won't feel left out.
But the truth is, I'm not really missing out on anything. Most of the time, these events aren't even that exciting, and the people who attend them probably aren't having as much fun as they make it seem. I know this logically, but it's hard to shake off the feeling of being left out.
FOMO has also made it difficult for me to focus on my own life and goals. I'm constantly distracted by what others are doing, and it's hard to stay motivated when I feel like I'm not keeping up. It's time for me to take a step back and focus on my own priorities. I need to remind myself that it's okay to miss out on things and that my own happiness is more important than trying to keep up with everyone else.
I'm going to try to limit my time on social media and focus on the things that truly make me happy. I know it won't be easy, but I'm ready to start living my life for myself, not for others.
Until next time.
