me to me: you stress me out

in therapy my therapist and i were talking about my own feelings of self worth in relationships. and she asked me to say qualities about myself that someone else would be attracted to, on a romantic and platonic level. so i named some things like compassionate, empathetic, etc. and she said “you named things that you can give someone. ways you can serve, rather than ways that you are” and y'all..my mind was blown that’s gonna stick with me forever like she then proceed to tell me actual innate qualities about myself that she liked and thought anyone else would like as well and i hadn’t even considered those because like she said i was focused on things i could do outwardly to attract and maintain connections rather than who i was as a person..goddamn!!! thats tea!!!

Me: *is feeling bad* Also me: *can’t think of a way to make it funny* Brain: can’t talk about it then

this is…. meta as fuck

The real glo up is when you stop waiting to turn into some perfect hypothetical version of yourself and consciously enjoy being who you are in the present moment.

hopeless romantic with trust issues and a sex drive out the roof

Sometimes you just need to hear how much you mean to someone

If u defend my name when im not around I truly appreciate u
