peppermint ᯽ does having a darling show up physically for you? nausea, appearance changes, etc.
I do change myself a bit for my darling, mostly physically, but within reason. My current darling has some particularities and has the ability to choose certain aspects of my being, from things as small as what color I get my nails painted, to things like picking out clothes for me or a haircut. To speak on my current darling, she doesn't really like to pick too much. One of the things I like a lot about her is that she likes me as I am. I do change things on my own according to what she likes sometimes, though. (She said she liked red on me once, so I ended up wearing a red dress to a different event, etc.)
oolong ᯽ would you have a shrine for your darling? why or why not?
I think that the act of my loving is a shrine in and of itself. A more physical manifestation, I suppose, is found digitally. I make her a lot of gifts and collections of my thoughts on her. I have a secret devotional blog, a pinterest board, a myriad of writings, a photo album, etc. Nothing physical, at least for the time being, but my room is full of things she's given me and my thoughts on her.
white ᯽ how do you view your darling? or your ideal one?
I try to view her exactly as she is. At my worst, a willing lover and a diligent supporter at my best, a girl who chose me and continues to choose me. I can be a little emotionally volatile when it comes to love, but she is the one who finds balance between my extremes.
matcha ᯽ if your darling wanted to leave, would you let them?
I think it depends on why. I never really have cared for the musings that some people have where their only argument is me being "better off without them" and the likes. Ideas like that don't really stand up as a legitimate reason for leaving in my eyes. If she lost feelings or did something drastic, then I'd probably put my all into fixing it first. I think most of the time, then, my answer would be no, but again, i think there can be legitimate reasoning in some rare cases.
An extra treat since I know who this is: honey, milk, lemon (to a much lesser degree), and ice (also to a much lesser degree)
