Squish Support Group

welcome! this is a blog about squishes and friendship! see pinned post for a little more info✨

[squishsupportgroup]

Welcome!

I’m a! I’m aroace, and I use she/they pronouns.

I get squishes (what’s that?) and I’ve been really frustrated with the lack of dedicated content about them. I created this blog as a collection of squish posts by me and others, and for people who get squishes to share their experiences and anything else!

When asking or interacting, please be respectful and keep in mind that I am not a mental health professional, I’m just someone trying my best and wanting to talk about squishes! Also, please don’t tag my posts as romantic—the fact that they aren’t romantic is important to this blog and its focus. (It also makes me uncomfortable!)

If you have a post you want me to see, tag @squishsupportgroup ! I’d love to see what you have to say!

If there’s anything you need me to put a tw or cw for, or anything else I can do to make this blog more accessible, let me know!

*said with so much love in my heart that it's full to bursting* hey I had a lot of fun last time would you like to hang out again sometime soon? :)

[veryspecialfriendtome]

K and I just made dinner together and we barely spoke but we just,,,, worked together so well? doing things without asking and I chopped garlic because they hate doing that and just knowing what to do next and how to be in the space together without getting in each other's way. and I usually HATE sharing a kitchen with anyone.

is this what people mean when they talk about chemistry? because I did Not consider how !!!!! Kitchen Chemistry would feel to me but,,, jeez louise

early stages of friendship are Soooo embarrassing like yea sorry....... it's me again............ i enjoy talking to you and spending time with you....... you can shoot me point blank if you want i dont mind

[twentythousandvolts]

hey guys. just so everyone knows the person this was about was the first note on this post and we're just normal friends now. and im not scared anymore.

[gardengnosticator]

friendship addicts will be like “i just need one more hit of your infectious laughter and zest for life”

[alterouslyinlove]

oh to live with your qpp. oh to be in separate rooms or bunk beds but always join each other if we need to. oh to dance in the kitchen and make meals together. oh to cuddle while watching a movie. oh to have our time to our selves but still be close to each other. oh to be able to say i love you irl and any time you want. oh to own a cat together. oh to go grocery shopping together. oh to sit on the porch and watch the stars together. oh to simply be with one another. wouldn’t that be great.

having a full text conversation with my squish has me like. I am getting a good grade in Making Friends, something normal to want and possible to achieve

[femmeidiot]

wanting to talk to people is so fucking embarrassing. literally hi it's me again I wanted to have a conversation with you because I think you're fun to talk to. oh god you can just fucking kill me if you want sorry

[gay--dog]

[sir-fagdalene]

You once called me “friend” on a tired night. I’ve kept the word in my chest ever since, like a lantern.

[kiisuuumii]

anyone wanna sit together in silence while you do your thing and i do my thing and we do our things. together. in silence

[fossaheel]

opposite of a wife guy im a my friends guy. oh you like that flower thats crazy my friend literally gardens. oh you ate a bagel today thats crazy when i hung out with my friend we got bagels. oh you took a walk by some water that's crazy because a year ago me and my friend took this specific walk by the water and it was meaningful. phone screen of my friends. always talking about my friends. starting to think nobody else has my friends in the same way that i have my friends and im really sorry about that you know what i mean

wow having a squish is so strange and confusing. like, this person fills my mind and brings me joy but i don’t want to date them what’s going on

[horrorfilmdyke]

the saying you cant miss what you never had is so insane to me.... like um actually i am always missing what i never had. theres so much missing... i miss everything

[probuccalfat]

adult friendships are really anything you need them to be like it doesn’t matter. if you and your friend want to see each other twice a week, that’s cool! if you want to have a standing monthly dinner at a restaurant with a friend, that’s cool! if you see each other once every four months and that’s all you can swing, that’s cool! you’re still friends as long as that’s how you both feel. if you talk twice a year for a good couple of hours, guess what? that’s still cool and you’re still friends if that’s how it feels. there’s no rules. whatever you can give in terms of energy and time is enough to be friends

[1anonyymous1]

do you ever just want to sit outside with someone and talk all night
