You before me

"Whimsy" is truly a wretched term. What maketh thee so carefree?

thy mother

Art thou for fucking real

like to charge, reblog to cast.

sex with a guy who wants to hunt you for sport for 6-12 hours immediately beforehand

sex with a guy who gave you a big head start and mocks you about it after he’s caught you anyway

sex with a guy who wants to watch your brain kick down a few notches when he pins you down like you’re a prey animal that knows it’s done running

To be myself today

I’m not the woman I was a few years ago or even a year ago but I still like to hold her hand and remind her she did her best with what she knew

I promise you things will get so much better when you start processing people’s behavior as information rather than a verdict on your self-worth. If someone doesn’t text back, suddenly pulls away, whatever it may be, the solution isn’t to put on a tap dance for them and try to regain their approval. It’s not to crash out on them and try to force them to react a certain way. It’s just to take a step back, take a deep breath, and assess what this tells you. What’s this saying about them? What’s this saying about you??

Thank you so much @pocketfullofpoesies! 🩷
