It's Going To Be Okay. 💜

there is no old self to get back to there’s a new u to create n nurture

it doesn’t matter how good you’re doing, those sad nights will creep up on you from time to time and that’s ok. doesn’t mean all your progress is gone

I hope

Having sex with someone actually is a big deal and involves a ton of vulnerability and I think it’s extremely troubling and gross and unhealthy and actually exceptionally dangerous that we pretend otherwise and encourage people to “be mature” by compartmentalizing/completely eliminating their deeper human emotions from their sexuality and that any other view is dismissed as prudish and invalid and unenlightened and childish and restrictive. I can’t think about this too much because it makes me rage but I hate how much porn and capitalism have destroyed how we understand and experience sexuality and intimate connections with one another so much.

Because of all of this I feel worthless. Living up to certain standards that are unrealistic and essentially impossible. Because of this, people are taken advantage of. Because of this, no’s lose some of their meaning. Because of this, people feel obligated to do stuff and lose sight of what their values and feelings are worth.
