it’s amazing when your humor is exactly the same as someone else’s & you both just spend the whole day laughing at everything you both say

[hotelcaiette]

do you ever just wanna sit next to someone and listen to everything they could possibly say about anything ever just because you like their face and their voice and their general existence 

[micro-bi-ologist]

Soft moonlight, fragrant flowers, shooting stars, fuzzy blankets, sweet words, long nights, happy days, warm love, you.

a gentle reminder that you did well this year. you met new people, learned new things and felt new feelings. you did so many things that made you scared. you picked yourself up off the floor after feeling completely defeated or heartbroken. there were some really tough nights but you survived them all. you made people happy just by existing. you accepted many goodbyes but the serendipitous meetings made up for them. it was your own hard work that paid off but you always downplay it or compare yourself to others. that’s not fair on yourself. you’ve come so far from the first day of this year. you have more wisdom and strength now. yes, other people seem more “successful” but does that even matter? please don’t think so lowly of yourself to only think about your failures. 2018 was your year of growth. I hope you take a moment to be kind to yourself, and believe that 2019 will be even better.

2019 is gonna be a year of love!!! a year of resilience!!! a year of “i did that”!!! a year of finding good music and being moved by lovely things and seeing your goals crystallize and come closer & closer into reach!!! and above all it’s gonna be a year of forgiving yourself for screwing up and pushing through ANYWAY!!!

I want to cuddle you by the fire.

My love, you rain for me when the sun shines too brightly.

[aro-witch-deactivated20220831]

I feel so ridiculously happy around you.

You make my gloomy days manageable and my good days memorable. I am so entirely in love with you.

I have always childishly loved the idea of the hearts of soulmates being connected by a string. No matter how far apart or how tangled the string becomes it will never break.

My love we have adorned our string with scars and flowers and secrets. It is ours, and ours alone.

The fact that it’s not just “I have to wait until Monday to see you again”, but “I have to wait years to even see you for the first time” is one of the worst feelings, but it’ll make all the hugs and cuddles so much more worth it.

I think it's cool that we tend to learn behaviors from close friends; like when you use similar speech patterns to theirs. Like, this person has influenced you enough that you pick up on small things like that.

[hugs-and-squishes]

I love hearing you say my name.

Recently my friend & I have done a lot of platonic cuddling, even though she has a boyfriend and I was really nervous that she was secretly uncomfortable about it but I talked to her and she's actually OK with it. We agreed that it's just a great stress reliever and we don't have to worry about any awkward sexual tension which is even better(I'm asexual) I was still a little nervous about the whole thing being a little weird but your blog has really instilled some confidence in me, thank you!

That's great, I'm glad you were able to work it out! This is also a good example that communication is key in any kind of relationship. It's important to make sure everyone is comfortable!

(Also sorry that I haven't answered a lot of asks lately)

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

you still have so many years to meet so many people you never knew you could love so much

[wholeheartedsuggestions]

be good to yourself

be good to others

be good to the world

sometimes you’re not gonna have support from anyone. keep going anyway. you’re strong enough to make it.
