KIND REMINDERS 🤍

1. You are someone’s dream girl exactly the way you are right now.

We put so much emphasis on growth and getting to that “next best place”, which is fine, but we always forget that we deserve self-love as we are right now. It does not mean that you aren’t at your “best” physically and/or mentally that you aren’t deserving of love, kindness, and respect.

2. Perspective is everything

Stop stressing over that one bad grade you received at school. In ten years, you won’t even remember what teacher gave it to you. Focus your energy on things that’ll have lasting impacts. When you look back on your life, you want to see the beauty of it, not the anguish.

3. Growth isn’t linear

Don’t blame yourself for messing up. We aren’t perfect and we are bound to mess up every once in a while. Learn from your mistakes, and try to not repeat them. And if you do, that’s okay, there’s always another time. Growth has no time limit.

4. You are not a bad person

If you are sitting here constantly asking yourself if you are a bad person or underserving of love, I’m here to tell you one thing: bad people don’t worry about whether they are perceived as “good” or “bad”. Give yourself grace, and stop letting your overthinking consume you.

So much love,

A girl unfiltered 💋

Strategies I use to…

Reconnect with myself˚◞♡ ⃗ *ೃ༄

Hiiii, here is a list of some things I do in order to reconnect with myself!

When I feel down, overwhelmed, mindless, or just not like my usual self, these activities are my saviours.

• Physical activity!!! - You know I had to put this one first, girl. Strength training, stretching, swimming, running, walking, dancing, playing sports, etc. Physical activity makes me feel amazing and gives me a total confidence boost, I’m just in my element.

• Meditation - Deep breathing, relaxing music, clear mind, I love it! I feel a deep sense of connection with myself and the universe when meditating. It’s also just a great reset if you’re in a negative mood, I feel totally cleansed afterwards.

• Pampering!!! - face massage, gua sha, long hot bath/shower, full body massage, cute treat/drink, ice roller, positive affirmations, comfy clothes, favourite movie, and so on.

• Get creative - Getting creative is a good way to express and connect with yourself. Doing something artsy always reminds me of when I was a kid, and writing is a great outlet for my creativity.

Drawing, writing, sculpting, painting, colouring, knitting, crocheting, etc.

• Journaling - I love journaling so much. It’s a good way to check-in with yourself, learn about yourself, and release your emotions. I feel a lot more in tune with myself afterwards.

I’ll write about : Things I am grateful for, my dreams and desires, goals I’m working towards, my favourite things about myself, my feelings, etc.

• Expressing myself - Often, the reason for me feeling disconnected with myself is because I’ve hidden or ignored my true feelings/thoughts/self. I mean obviously masking yourself makes you feel disconnected with yourself…

My strategy is to openly express myself confidently. I share my feelings and opinions, and I don’t try to hide who I am. I don’t care what people think of me, I will never be ashamed or embarrassed of my authentic self.

how to get organised with a planner

there are several ways to get organised, my favourite and the one that i think is the most practical is to use a planner and there i write down what i have to do during the week and important appointments or commitments.

if you procrastinate, have a disorganised life or do not know what to do and waste time on other activities that in the end do not benefit you and take time away from doing those activities that you were really planning to do but because of "lack of time" you never started them.

you can romanticise this habit by getting a planner, on amazon for example you can get one but you can also get a normal notebook and do it yourself, if you do this i recommend you make a template for each week so you have no excuse for not doing it.

good habits start with organisation.

i show you in these pictures a sample of my planner and some examples so that you can better understand how you can do it.

(for my european girls this planner i got it from a shop called tiger)

in my case some important tasks like the gym and my work schedule i write them down in advance before i start the week, there are other tasks that i write down every night before i go to sleep, the question is to find what works best for you.

i hope this method of organisation can help you to become the best version of yourself and remember to forge a habit in 21 days, so go for it :)

A healthy luxury lifestyle 🫧🐚

[bougiebutchbinch]

wanna write a sad, nasty, but also kinda hopeful thing where logan hooks up with wade in a casual-sort-of-way, post-honda-odyssey and deadpool 3, etc.

only. wade is so pathetic and grateful to be touched and fucked and treated like he's desirable.

he obviously falls WAY too far and way too fast. he's very desperate and needy in an 'I thought nobody would ever want me except my last girlfriend who literally died in my arms - then I rescued her only for us to break up, so I just assumed I would be forever alone again' sort of way

maybe... wade starts neglecting his other friends and isolating himself from them?

not because logan's forcing him to, obviously - but because wade is just so fucking broken at the thought of losing people he loves, again, that he's scared to let himself love them fully? so he focuses on Logan (Logan, who can't die!! who can be with wade forever!). Keeping him happy. Sucking him off real sweet, or spreading his own legs and rolling over whenever Loagie's horny. Hiding his face in the pillows so Logan doesn't have to look. Trying so hard to convince him to stay....

and Logan, who just wanted someone to stick his dick in, but genuinely finds wade annoying and not especially attractive outside of when they're stabbing each other... is just a little uncomfortable

but he needs a place to stay, and it's Wade's house. Plus, Wade feels good on his dick. The mouthy bastard is so desperate for affection, and he's eager to do pretty much anything Logan wants, including letting Logan spend his days drinking on the couch and watching shit tv. If Wade pisses Logan off too much, Logan can just stab him and treat him like a punching bag. Wade always heals right up again after - and vice versa. So - hey, what's the harm?

(OF COURSE he is falling more and more for Wade every day... starting to see the very real beauty in him...... but is in desperate denial of his own feelings. And OF COURSE Wade graduallyyyyyy starts being less unhealthily codependent - mostly because his friends refuse to let him put up the Depressed Immortal Afraid Of Loss walls.)

Eventually, they figure things out. But for a while, they're both having enthusiastic, consensual, and very, very miserable sex - though neither of them can explain why they're not happy...

These two are SO RIPE for angsty, fucked-up nastiness and cutesy adorable fluff. I need a sprinkling of the former with the latter, please!

Types of relationships that look like love but are not:

Infatuation: This is an intense emotional or sexual attraction to someone that can give the illusion of love. However, infatuation is often based on idealized perceptions rather than a deep emotional connection.

Codependency: Codependent relationships involve one person excessively relying on another for emotional or physical needs. This dependency can mimic love, but it is rooted in the need for validation, control, or a sense of purpose.

Unrequited love: This refers to a situation where one person has romantic feelings for another, but those feelings are not reciprocated. It may involve one-sided affection, longing, or an obsession with someone who does not feel the same way.

Limerence: Limerence is an intense and obsessive form of attraction characterized by intrusive thoughts, longing for reciprocation, and an idealized image of the other person. It can feel like love, but it often lacks a genuine emotional connection.

Conditional love: In relationships based on conditional love, affection and care are only given when certain conditions or expectations are met. This type of relationship lacks unconditional acceptance and can be manipulative or controlling.

Trauma bond: A trauma bond forms when two individuals share intense emotional experiences, often negative or abusive. Despite the harmful dynamics, there may be a strong attachment due to the shared trauma, leading to a mistaken perception of love.

Transactional relationships: These relationships are based on mutual benefit or convenience rather than genuine emotional connection. Partners may stay together for financial security, social status, or other practical reasons, rather than genuine love and affection.

Manipulative relationships: Manipulative relationships involve one person exerting control and power over the other through emotional manipulation, coercion, or gaslighting. The manipulator may feign love and affection to gain control or exploit their partner's vulnerabilities.

Fantasy relationships: In fantasy relationships, one or both partners create an idealized version of the other person, often based on unrealistic expectations or fantasies. The relationship may lack a true emotional connection, as it is based on the person's fantasy rather than the reality of who their partner is.

One-sided relationships: These relationships are characterized by an imbalance of effort, care, or emotional investment. One person may consistently give more while the other takes without reciprocation. It can create an illusion of love, but it lacks equality and mutual respect.

Love addiction: Love addiction refers to a compulsive or obsessive pattern of seeking out relationships and being dependent on the euphoric feeling of being in love. It can lead to a cycle of unhealthy relationships, as the person seeks constant validation and excitement without addressing underlying emotional issues.
