this self shipper appreciation post is for…

𑣲. self shippers who have a hard time engaging in the community

𑣲. self shippers who frequently go MIA or on hiatus (for various reasons)

𑣲. self shippers who struggle with making friends/mutuals

𑣲. self shippers who prefer to keep to their own blog and treat it more like a f/o “diary”

𑣲. self shippers who have their own way of appreciating their f/o, even if it doesn’t make sense to anyone else

𑣲. self shippers who feel left out or disconnected for any reason

i’m so happy you’re here. it sucks feeling isolated from people you so desperately want to relate to, but just know that even if i don’t (personally) know you, i get you and i see you ᢉ𐭩

You know... your f/o(s) would gift you all the stars in the sky if they could, if it's what would make you smile. You are so much more important to them than you could ever imagine, you truly mean the world to them, I hope you know that .

[selfstimmer]

your f/o is... protective, to say the least.

in public, its no secret - they lace their fingers into your own, palms clasped tight, shoulders brushing yours. they take care to watch, mindful and weighing everything you say and the ways you react to the world around you. in particular, they're quite watchful of when other people come your way: an arm around your waist, a hasty debrief after, clearing their throat if they disapprove of someone's tone towards you.

you drift off in bed at night, cared for and adored. scooped into your f/o's arms, wrapped up tightly in their embrace, they whisper to you of how much they love you and will keep you safe. your eyelids are heavy, but youre sure, with certainty, they'll be there to remind you again in the morning.

maturing is realizing that your F/O(s) love YOU

not your perfect self-insert

not your idealized flawless self

not the fake personality you perform around other people

but you, the *real* you, complete with all your flaws and insecurities and imperfections

you are enough for your F/O(s) and you deserve their love

You can f/o your own OC, no one’s stopping you from doing so. It’s not cringe and it’s not egotistical. You are literally having fun bro
