Do you believe in soulmates? (2/2)

oho. oh HO ho. there is no joke this time you do not know what essays you’ve gotten yourself into with this one

#so. to begin with i kind of fucking hate this whole concept #okay maybe hate is a strong word i can understand the whole whimsy for the “we were meant to meet and love each other in every life” part #it’s cute yeah yeah you can have a little bit as a treat. i’m not the sourpuss shitting on valentine’s day as purely corporate scheming #and it can be nice if it’s platonic as well #but holy fuck the whole “The One” aspect of this oh my GOD it drives me insane #even disregarding how it basically encourages holding romance to a pedestal and the mindset of Your Partner Will Solve All Your Problems #how it puts so much unrealistic pressure on this one person to Be everything you’ve ever wanted and the whole weird relationship as therapy #slash replacement for human connection or a single relationship being otherwise inexplicably superior thing #have you seen the amount of motherfuckers with the “i can fix him” i mean it’s funny as a MEME but god if y’all really thinking like this #i don’t know what to tell you #it feels so fucked up to designate finding this isolated perfect love as your destined purpose #like god knows we’re already way too conditioned to want a romantic relationship by society as is. now you’re saying you gotta?? #i’m not saying all sentiment is trite by this or anything i too am a silly little man in love and yeah #sometimes you get to pondering the metaphysical orb of why we’re here. it isn’t wrong to do that #but it feels like the massive amount of expectations we have around love bc of this culture has turned it into more of a Whole Thing #and sometimes what it makes us think of the Whole Thing is FUCKING WRONG #i’m sure someone out there’s phrased this way more eloquently than me i’m just one skeptical arospec bitch. but you start to notice things #this has been your daily drug induced rambling signing off at 10 o clock
