0, 11, 16, 17, 21, 28, 29, and 43 for the ask game if that’s not too much :D
Not at all, thanks so much for this <3
Ooof I’m not sure I have one at the moment. The person I would’ve picked a couple of years ago isn’t very present in my life anymore.
You notice when I’m struggling and offer to take some things off my plate.
My aforementioned former best friend. We became very close in university – she is a very lovely, very kind person – and even lived together at one point, but unfortunately drifted apart after she moved to a different country for work. I’ve not seen her in about a year, and haven’t heard from her in a few months. I do very much hope she’s happy and fulfilled, whatever she’s doing.
21: What I love most about myself
“Love” feels a bit too strong haha. But I like that I can be – and I try very hard to be – compassionate and see all possible points of view to a situation.
28: A description of the person I dislike the most
There isn’t any one person that comes to mind, really. I find it hard to connect to people and won’t stick around if I dislike someone. But generally, I dislike flakiness, lack of reciprocation, judginess, dismissiveness, emotional unavailability.
29: A reason I’ve lied to a friend
This was lying by omission because I was trying to be supportive but still – friend cheated on her then-partner and ended up meeting the love of her life, and I’ve never told her that I think it was incredibly shitty of her not to end the relationship sooner. Conversely I’ve never told her ex, with whom I’m still friends, that she met her current partner by cheating on him rather than after the break-up. I worry that if I told him, he’d just end up hurting without any benefit to him, especially now that he’s moved on and is in a wonderful place in his life.
43: Sexiest person that comes to my mind immediately
The actor Sam Reid but specifically in his role as Lestat in IWTV!
