#bear fighting

"...the chances of him needing to protect me from a bear are quite low, but the risk of me getting attacked by my own partner is way higher."

"...he made me feel safe, even when we had heated arguments."

I just saw a post here about marrying your friend. This is like that.

Find people who make you feel safe when you have heated arguments. Who put your needs over their own posturing and need for power. Who don't go around *saying* they'd fight a bear for you, but who will say "bears are massive killing machines, let's leave", then watch your back as you both GTFO.

Get yourself a Tifa, who will put your memories back together and remind you who you are, who can kick ass, but always makes you feel safe and wanted, who doesn't start fights with a demigod, but sure as hell finishes them.

Someone who is willing to take a back seat and support you against geostigma, mind fuckery, your evil ex, etc. because you need to fight too.

Edit to add:

'I'm gonna' kill the bear.'
