Listen to the Stranger Things + Byler angst/yearning crossfade transition playlist!

This is intended to be listened to in order with the crossfade setting enabled and set to 5 seconds. For best experience, use headphones. Enjoy!

As far as I know, ao3 is still down. Some people say they have managed to access it, but others are saying it’s still down. So I urge you all to wait until the volunteers give the all clear.

However, I decided to compile all of my docs into a big doc so you guys can read TKSD if you’d like. Chapter numbers and titles are listed as well.

If the Doc struggles (bc it is over 47k words) PLEASE let me know. I’ll compile the chapters separately into a drive if that’s the case.

Hope this can help some of y’all pass the time!!

Nervousness and Blushing

A ton of romance media and common cultural tropes have this idea that you know you’re attracted to someone if you’re nervous or blushing around them. Because of this, you might feel like you must be attracted to a man if you feel nervous around him, just because you’re experiencing the physical bodily response you’ve been told to expect, not because you actually want to date him.

Actual Attraction:

You’re nervous because you’re excited to get to know someone. You find them attractive first and because you’re thinking about your attraction to them, you get self conscious because you hope they might like you too.

Compulsory Heterosexuality:

You’re nervous because you are aware that he is attracted to you, and because he’s paying such close attention to you– especially if he’s pushing boundaries or getting too close into your personal space– you become self conscious because you know he’s watching you. You blush because you’re uncomfortable.

-----------------------------

I can’t even count how many times I have felt this. It really explains that I was never actually attracted to the men I’ve been with. EXCEPT for those who were my friends first (3 of them were)
