So I reopened my dating apps because my tarot deck said to
And then I matched this guy
So I was like "Ok I GOTTA message him"
THE RING WRAITH SAID TRANS RIGHTS
I think I'm in love.
I'll try to keep you updated, but if I stop posting I've run off to Mordor.
Small update:
He replies pretty slowly, but that's OK, I think I've got him.
I don't think he knows what to make of me
I’m so invested in this romcom OP plEASE keep us posted.
It's been really slow
GUYS IM SWOONING
How the fuck do you have this much chemistry with a nazgul
I'm a BARD
"Because my tarot deck said you" do you think they were just like, "you gotta see this out, it's hilarious"?
To it's credit, I've also met a guy I really like. That just isn't funny.
GUYS
I THINK WE'RE GONNA DO THIS THING
Also I told him about you. Also I have cut out some parts of the Convo, but all the fun parts are here.
GUYS THIS IS HAPPENING
What do I WEAR?!
I could cry.
I have to announce a tragedy.
Naz Gûl was kicked from Tinder before I got his number. I'm heartbroken. :(
HE FOUND ME!!!!!!!
Update: the date is set!
OK COOL BUT DID YOU GET TO HANG OUT??? HOW WAS IT
I NEED AN UPDATE, OH-NAZGUL-CHARMER
Working on it! :)
So we moved on over.
I apologize for the lack of updates, but this update has us to the present finally!
We have a schedule. Both our lives have been ABSURD over the duration of this story, and there's a lot of me and him in here.
A lot of folks seem to think that this is a romantic date? Pretty early on, Naz said that he wasn't looking for romance. And I am VERY Polyamorous, but not really looking for new folks right now.
Still! We're going to do this thing! We're going to meet, and we're going to take pictures (maybe even a video or two?) And you'll get to see it!
Today's the day
We opted for a coffee shop because of the rain, but I am here with coffee waiting.
Why am I so nervous? This isn't even a DATE date. We're bros. It's gonna be cool.
Any car could be Him, and I keep looking up at each one. Is he gonna show up in the costume? Is the weather cool for that? Is it in the wash?
Thankfully I did think of a cool line to say when he gets here.
Gotta be honest, I wish I had done a "Tap To See More" on this post all those months ago, scrolling is a pain.
There's a girl outside having an ANIMATED conversation about someone who wronged her friend and she is big mad. I am living for her. I want the best for her life. I will never speak to her.
Oh god oh fuck oh shit he's here, he pulled up. How do I look? Is there anything in my teeth? Act cool, Guin, act cool
Holy fucking shit
So this will PROBABLY be my last reblog of this specific post, just for length. Any future updates, I think, will be kept in a separate post, which will actually have the "Keep Reading" on it.
When this a started, I had no idea how long of a journey it would be. A year!!! A whole year!!! I've moved, ended a major relationship, and gotten a new job and 2 promotions since then. He graduated grad school not long after this meeting, which was between studying for finals!
This has been the wildest, coolest ride I've been on in ages. I think we're going to be friends for the rest of our lives. We're Facebook friends now (with his real account) and oh my god he's funny as hell. We're talking about taking a day to marathon the extended editions, too.
I'm grateful to all of you for coming along on this journey with me. (And welcome to the folks who found me through his reddit post).
Guren glassui. Na lû e-govaned vîn.
