Romance vs Platonic

I understand Tori in the way she sees romantic relationships. How everyone craves it, desires it, they throw themselves head first into it and when it backfires they don't care they still stay in those relationships even if it hurts friends doing so is frustrating and stupid and you can hardly understand why people would do that just to have a partner when they already have friends. I understand the confusion when it comes to wanting to be held to want to hold someone's hand but also feel confusion when people talk about their dates and it just sounds like they and their partner went and hung out like friends do. There's this thing about romantic relationships that are so confusing because they are so CLOSE to platonic friendship relationships the differences? you kiss? you have sex? No, because asexuals exist and some don't want sex but are still in romantic relationships. SO WHY THE FUCK IS EVERYONE SO HELLBENT ON A ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIP IN THEIR LIVES?! For your brother to ask if you and your guy friend are together all because you hang out and he makes you happy? Isn't that something friends do? How do you know what makes a romantic relationship? How can you know when you're in one. Whats the difference?

Asexuality is a sexual orientation. Typically, an asexual person has little or no interest in sexual contact with other people. However, they may engage in sexual activity alone or with a partner.

Tori is amazing asexual representation!!

Solitaire by Alice Oseman

Guys. I have listened to the solitaire audiobook all the way through, everyday for the past two weeks. I’ve been feeling my mental health plummet into the ground, and this book makes me feel seen. I don’t feel alone. Tori and Michael are so real and relatable and I love their friendship and their love so much. Alice really knew what she was doing when she was writing this novel. It’s so well written and every word is so important. Idk. That’s all I wanted to say ig. I love this book so so much.

Oc art! I’m trying to decide if I want something more busy, and this story I’m creating definitely does need the “dead dove: do not eat” tag but, im not ready to share everything quite yet I’m still in the design phase lol

i just realized the cover of solitaire says "this is not a love story" and tao in season 2 mentions the movie 500 days of summer which starts with the line "this is not a love story".

Am I crazy or is it all connected?

Thought for the day: Why do people try to fit in, when standing out, they would thrive?

Fear, people are terrified of being perceived…

(I absolutely loved opening tumblr to this!!☺️☺️)
