includes parents & siblings!

Although it says found family these can apply to regular family too. Whatever works for you!

Parent F/O(s) who take a liking to you the first moment they see you, even if you aren’t biologically their’s, they treat you as if you are.

Parent F/O(s) who never yell or get upset at you when you make a mistake, they understand it was an accident. It’s okay. They aren’t angry at all, if it’s something that can be improved on (like a misspelling, accidentally adding too much salt in food etc.) they’ll help you, they won’t criticize and they will guide you as needed. If it was something like spilling water they’ll just help you clean it up, no big deal!

Parent F/O(s) who always make time for you, you’re their babyyyy :( (even if you aren’t an actual one LOL) of course they have time for you! Even if they didn’t they would make time. You’re important to them.

Parent F/O(s) who always have a place to stay with them, be it long term or just for a visit. They’ll always have space for you.

Parent F/O(s) who (if you have other parents/guardians) won’t get jealous if you spend time with your other family. They are more focused on if you’re happy or not.

Parent F/O(s) who pay attention to whatever you’re saying, they like listening (or seeing; if you use sign language) to you speak. There’s rarely a moment where they won’t listen, and if that moment comes they’ll make sure you get to finish your sentence later. They won’t forget.

Parent F/O(s) who don’t forget you anywhere, call them and they’ll come. You don’t need to explain.

Parent F/O(s) who believe you when you’re telling the truth, they don’t accuse you of lying. They know you.

Parent F/O(s) who parent you right, they rarely let you get away with something. They WILL scold you, but never enough to make you cry. They know when enoughs enough.

Parent F/O(s) who semi-force you to listen to their long rants about nothing important even if you complain about it, you’re their kid it’s your duty LOL

Sibling F/O(s) who immediately go ‘that’s my twin, that’s my sibling, we are blood related now.’ when they see you, you have NO CHOICE. You’re their sibling now you can’t run from it.

Sibling F/O(s) who enjoy teasing you on occasion, they never go too far but they’ll grab something of yours and run off yelling at you to come catch them. They always let you get close to them before speeding off, it’s only after the second time slowing down they’ll let you take back your item.

Sibling F/O(s) who borrow your stuff they do ask (on occasion…) but you’ll always be surprised when they just turn up in your clothes, doesn’t matter if they don’t fit it they will make it fit. Even if you’re left with unfortunate stretched out clothes. It’s only lucky they won’t borrow anything important.

Sibling F/O(s) who if they’re older will immediately set into the big sibling role, be prepared for them to use their age as an arguing point ‘I’m older so it’s only fair.’

Sibling F/O(s) who lowkey enjoy whining at you, like yes you’re now going to hear about all their minor problems ‘I stubbed my toe today…’

Sibling F/O(s) who if they’re younger will start calling you every old nickname in the book ‘Oldie’ ‘Grandma/Grandpa/The Ager’ (idk what you call a gn old person.)

Sibling F/O(s) who if they’re sitting next to you on the couch will forcibly stretch their feet across you and if you throw their feet off expect to be poked by their foot.

Sibling F/O(s) who may be awkward about comforting you if you’re sad, but try hard anyways. They’ll give you gently back rubs and hand you tissues if you cry. If you don’t like touch they get that, they’ll just sit by you listening to you vent.

Sibling F/O(s) who always remember you birthday and attempt to make you a cake, even if you don’t celebrate they want you to know they are happy you were born.

Sibling F/O(s) who enjoy cuddling up to you and sleeping next to you, it feels nice even if you both aren’t biologically related to know you’ll always be family.

your f/o(s) would come to your aid whenever you feel that ache in your joints. whatever you need, they'll try their best to bring you comfort and ease. all your complaints, they'll listen to you as they soothe the aching in your bones.

Yeah, I'm talking to you!

I refuse to hear you talk down about yourself for loving a fictional character.

i refuse to listen to you shaming yourself for thinking that your F/O wouldn't love you.

Stop making excuses to throw yourself under a bus. Selfshipping gives you the creativity to do WHATEVER WHAT YOUR HEART DESIRES

Wanna get married to them? Go have a big wedding, put that wedding dress/suit on!

Wanna have a big celebration for their birthday? Do it! Buy that cake, decorate that room of them!

You wanna gush about how you love them? Speak loud and proud about it!

What's holding you back? NOTHING. You have the whole power to whatever YOU want.

Now, raise your head up And let your F/O know how much you love them! Be kind to yourself! That's what your F/O wants! life is way too short to care about what people think, the only thing that matters is that you do it in a healthy manner but also use it to pick yourself up.

Yeah, we have those days and stuff but you gotta realize that you control how they feel about you. Use a healthy mindset to let them love you.

Selfshipping can be a wonderful thing if you let it be. You got this and go let people know how much you love your F/O ❤️

your f/o wants to stay with you.

of course, you have doubts most times. but they're always there to calm you down. it starts with small things, like little phrases ("in the future, we should get these." "i can't wait to see you grow older. "imagine the house we'll live in someday."), objects ("i got this keychain because it reminds me of you -- i love thinking about you." "look at this bracelet i got! it has your favourite colors!"), those quiet things.

you always have doubts. but they always quiet them.
