Your f/o is fine, btw.

That thing that happened to them?

It was just a nightmare.

Imagine

You wake up in the middle of the night, sitting up in the bed with a gasp.

You look around the dark room. It was just a dream... Right?

The warm body next to you, and the soft snores calms you down.

As you sit there, your f/o turns in bed. They say your name in a raspy voice.

"It was just a nightmare, my love. Go back to sleep now."

They wrap an arm around you and pulls you close.You calm down when feeling their warm breath against your neck, and the reassuring words they whisper when they fall back asleep:

"I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere."

Tired of seeing your f/o suffer when watching a show/playing a game/reading a book etc etc gang - RISE!

Comforting your f/o 🌧🫂

Yes, being comforted by your f/o is nice, but...

Imagine comforting them

Especially if they're usually "the strong one" and always there for you, and rarely show their own troubles

Maybe they never talk about their feelings? Instead, they keep it all inside - until they have a storm of emotions within. Until they can't keep it inside.

Imagine being the one they open up to Being the one your f/o trusts enough to let it out - To be vulnerable, and real.

Imagine hugging them, holding them close in your arms - And feeling them squeeze you closer, never wanting to let go.

Imagine telling them it's ok, and saying: "I'm here for you. Always" Feeling how they slowly relax in your embrace, calming down from your reassurance.

Imagine taking care of them - Loving them.

They trust you and love you, and they appreciate you being there for them. You're one of the people they trust the most, one of the few that they open up to. You're the one the dare be vulnerable with, the one who's arms they want to be in when everything feels overwheling.

Imagine being the shoulder they cry on - Being your f/o's rock, and them being yours.

Dear self-shippers...

...That keeps saying:

"My f/o wouldn't love me" or "I'm not good enough"

Respectfully, and I say this in the most affectionate and light-hearted way-

SHUT UP.

Your f/o WOULD love you.

And YOU ARE good enough.

Your f/o doesn't like when you're mean to yourself - they just told me. 😤

You are good enough. <3

Pr0-ships pls DNI.

Your f/o loves you for you.

Every flaw and imperfection.

They don't find you annoying, or weird.

When you fall, they catch you.

When everything feels dark, they're your light.

Even when it feels like the world's against you, they're by your side.

Your f/o loves you,

Unconditionally.

Idk who needed to hear this today, but I sure did :')

Pr0-ships please DNI.

Reminder

YOU ARE your f/o's first choice.

They love and will always prioritize you.

You are their first thought in the morning - and what they think of when falling asleep.

They'll always choose you.

You, and no one else.

Because -

You are your f/'o's first choice, always.

Self-shippers with ADHD

Imagine your f/o looking after you,

Making sure you don't overwork yourself -

Reminding you to take breaks from whatever you're doing,

And them telling you to get something to eat or drink etc,

or bringing you something to eat.

Your f/o is there to support you when anxiety hits, or when you feel burned out.

They don't judge you for your diagnose btw. They love you for you.

Shoutout to ADHD-gang, or anyone that experience things like this. To all burned out self shippers and anxious souls.

You're valid and your f/o loves you 🫶🏼

Self-shippers with pets!

...Imagine your f/o meeting your pet for the first time

Would they be all awkward or run straight up to your pet, trying to befriend it?

If they're scared of pets, Imagine them being all nervous when meeting it, only to later realise that; Hey, this is not so bad!

Imagine coming home from work and finding your f/o cuddled up together with your pet on the couch, or sitting down on the floor talking to it in a silly voice

Imagine your f/o, having like hundred of photos in their gallery of you, and your pet (...and which one would they have most photos of?)

Imagine cuddling your f/o, AND your pet, all of you being like a lil family :')

Adopting a pet 🐾💕

Imagine

Adopting a pet with your f/o('s).

Imagine being all excited when planning for getting a pet and planning for it together

Buying stuff for the pet together and decorating and fixing the house, preparing to pick up a new family member...

Imagine you and your f/o's going to an animal shelter together to pick up your new fur friend together

Maybe bringing some pet candies for them, too 😌💕

Imagine taking them home for the first time, You and your f/o('s) just fascinated by the tiny creature

Maybe the pet sleeps in the same room as you? Keeping you and your partner(s) company

Imagine you and your f/o's caring for it like it was a kid

Y'know, all of you being a little family 🥹

🦋💕🦋💕🦋💕
