annabel. i'm an old soul but i don't let the negatives of life get me down. most of the time anyways. i enjoy laughing, snuggling, making out, being in the kitchen, late nights out, pretty things and the company of amazing people. anything else you'll just have to figure out along the way.

Why for example, does a twenty-two-year-old man pursue a sixteen-year-old adolescent? Because he is stimulated by her? Obviously not. They are at completely different developmental points in life with a dramatic imbalance in their levels of knowledge and experience. He is attracted to power and seeks a partner who will look up to him with awe and allow him to lead her. Of course, he usually tells her the opposite, insisting that he wants to be with her because of how unusually mature and sophisticated she is for her age. He may even compliment her on her sexual prowess and say how much power she has over him, setting up the young victim so that she won’t recognize what is happening to her. Even without a chronological age difference, some abusive men are drawn to women who have less life experience, knowledge, or self-confidence, and who will look up to the man as a teacher or mentor.

Basecamp Tiny Home

A pair of engineers, Tina and Luke Orlando designed one of those tiny homes we envy each time we see it. At first, they built it for themselves according to their needs- the house is pet-friendly and sustainable, with plenty of storage space. They are now selling the plans for the house in order to share it with everyone interested in building it for themselves. At this point, there’s one model- Basecamp with many add-on options.

for months

i have been incredibly torn up about my breakup. i believed i had ruined things, even on a friendship level, with someone i thought was a kind and sweet man. although he has been a major dick since he ended things i still felt so much guilt but i am so thankful he sent it all to shit and reminded me of who he really is. 

a man who physically assaulted me, choked me till i couldn’t breathe and where i’m still swollen and bruised a week on is not a good man. a man who laughed and said he will do all he can to revoke my student visa, the one thing i have worked so hard for years for, is not a good man. a man who lied just to get me into a massive amount of trouble is not a good man. any man who would manipulate, lie and use someone to satisfy their weak ego is not a good man and on top of that is someone who is simply despicable and disgusting. 

i have always tried my best to forgive and not to hold any hatred towards people, which is why despite the shitty way he treated me on and off when we were dating i still forgave him. but now he is one human being that i have nothing but ill feelings towards and that will never change. someone who can’t see how wrong their behaviour was and how they treated another person awfully is someone who is not worth my energy. someone who at the basis lacks human decency and kindness. 

i am just thankful that he didn’t get his way and that i no longer have any good memories to feel sad over. here’s to hoping karma smacks him in the face.

you’ve always been okay. 

[inkskinned]

you give yourself in open palms, a love that you pull  from the soft parts of you;    where does it go? no love comes home to you,   you turn empty slowly, afraid of everything, knowing that you will never get back  if you give freely,   but every time, some part of you accidentally starts  believing:    maybe this time it will work and nobody will leave me.

The new faces of Lane Bryant are exactly what we needed – and we think you’ll agree

Lane Bryant’s second installment of its This Body campaign, for fall 2016, dubbed “#ThisBody Is Made to Shine,” just dropped today. This time around, there’s a new, zeitgeist-y twist on the campaign’s original message of empowerment and body positivity.

People don’t think there’s a process to being happy.

[creepintomysoul]

i’ve failed so many bloody times and i still don’t know how any of that shit works. but keep failing and learning to get up is what i shall attempt to do.

drop the idea that you need some deep philosophical meaning behind your tattoo, if you got a tattoo simply because its aesthetically pleasing and for no other reason then good for you 

[carrot-gallery]

aestheticism is the theory of art for art’s sake, and was championed by Oscar Wilde with the belief that surrounding oneself with beautiful things can directly influence the person one becomes. im taking a class on it. so basically every time u get a cool tattoo or a brooch u find in an antique store or a pretty wall print ‘just because u like it,’ Oscar Wilde is nodding approvingly

My sole mission in life is to make Oscar Wilde’s ghost approve of me

Things I wish someone had told me: I. Don’t make a sun out of someone; this will blind your soul before your eyes, will burn every word your lips spill and will fold your heart with every sunrise and sunset. You will end up being dazzled. II. Don’t make a sky out of someone; with all its grand breadth it will seem so small for you, its stillness will become ruthless for your heart, it will force you to recall all the happy yet painful memories every time you let yourself get lost there for a second. You will end up hating the stars even tho you named them after each other. III. Don’t make a home out of someone; you will seek refuges in people you don’t even know their names, you will let strangers touch your skin with their fingertips and pretend that you’re home. You will end up wandering mazily the streets wish you didn’t. IV. Don’t make a God out of someone; you will choke every time you mutter a prayer, you will feel the pain digging in your bones every time you mouth a litany or listen to a hymn. You will end up completely religiously lost.
