🐠Dori TMI: Well shit, I have been lying to myself.
This epiphany brought to us by my brain obsessing over guilty pleasure watches thanks to these posts (1 & 2).
I absolutely enjoy spicy scenes in my series, but with so many great stories that only give us the sweetest of kisses, or even less, I know I don't need the spice to feel satisfied. I always assumed that meant I was indifferent when it comes to heat. My self delusion was "not needing spice" = neutral... I could take it or leave it. But thinking about some of my watches made me realize I had to call bullshit on that.
It is true that I can live without spicy scenes. HOWEVER!!!! If just the promise of spice can not only get me seated, but keep me firmly planted even when others walk away, I have to admit that this is the exact opposite of "or leave it" 🤣
So my conclusion upon reflection, (and yes, this should have been obvious and was once I actually thought about it for a full second) is that no matter how much I love some straight sugar, that doesn't mean I am neutral when it comes to craving junk food that can melt my face.
