#at least sometimes

One thing about the shooting star festival with Caldarus I greatly dislike is... that I didn't get to see my character going back with Caldarus to drink tea and watch the rest of the stars :( come on.... I wanted to see what kind of wholesome conversation they would have had!! This is the kind of stuff I signed up for when choosing to romance Caldarus. Loooots of cozy and sweet moments together

And another thing: when Caldarus asks for cooking tips? Why isn't there an option to tell him "let me help you!" or "let's cook together!" ? 😔🙏 Seriously I just want to help him out sometimes XD made me smile when he gifted me a dish he thought turned out good and looked so excited (and bashful) about it, I love this silly dragon man

Not just cooking, I want to be able to assist him generally ;_; anything to make him happy

(to be fair if my farmer had my real life cooking skills we can be bad at cooking together xD or help each other become better, bonding time!!!)

Sick and tired of the Regulus "always cool faced and calm, emotionless, doesn't care about anything" black agenda. He's a teenage boy!!!! He makes stupid jokes, he comes up with bad ideas, he's annoying, he laughs, he has late night conversations with his friends that they say are "deep", he hates on books he's never read for no reason, he loves, he's not some stone cold person 24/7!!! Even the angstiest people have fun and can care/feel deeply. I see so many people write him/make him out to be an Ebony Dark'ness Dementia Raven Way!!! Or like those MCs in gacha mini movies😭😭like help‼️‼️‼️Like I don't stand behind him being super soft and emotional to every one around him, I'm just saying, especially (and maybe only) around the people he's truly close with, he's still a teen boy. He's still a person.

I think it's beautiful to redefine a holiday because of a loved one. What was once a dreadful holiday has become something to look forward to because you get to create new memories with your one true love

Did he say Ginchiest? Wow. That's slang I'd never heard before. So I guess...thanks, Gardner Fox, for making me have to learn all about 60s teen slang. I think I understand it slightly better (or just as well as) than I understand the modern slang now. But yeah. This was a complete foreign term to me. So I actually learned something here.

sometimes i’m really worried about my future

but then I go outside and the sun shines and I smell the flowers or the rain in the air and I hear people around me talking

and then I think, it can’t be that bad, because however bad I might fuck up, I will always have the sun and flowers and the squirrel that lives in the tree outside of my window

I have just had something of a realization.

I think one of the biggest impediments I personally face when it comes to my own stunted social development is the way I react to boredom. Or even just free time, really. Because whenever I have nothing in particular I need to be doing, my thought process is: "What can I do to occupy/entertain myself?" And not just: "What do I want to be doing right now?" So like, yes, I have hobbies, and I enjoy them. Sometimes they're exactly what I want to be doing and I couldn't be happier than I am playing a game, or maintaining a personal database that's way too big for its own good, or what have you.

But when they're not, I look at what my available options are, not what I would be doing ideally. Which really screws me up when it comes to figuring out my own social wants and needs. Like I don't consider hanging out with friends because I'm not physically near enough to any to suggest dropping by and spending time together. And even when I do get to hang out with people, I never have an answer to the question "So what do you want to do?" because I legitimately almost never think about it.

And I don't really know why, to be perfectly honest. I guess it's a strategy I've unconsciously adopted to avoid disappointment? Like no, you can't really do that right now, so focus on what you can. Asking for that would inconvenience people, you can make do without. You can't afford that, so don't think too much about wanting it. I'm awful at making Christmas lists or giving suggestions for what to get me for my birthday, and this is probably exactly why. I literally have no idea what I actually want from life because I've already convinced myself I can't have it and should make do with what's available to me right now. I...think I've trained myself to take up as little space as possible, to ask for as little as possible, in some kind of misguided effort to avoid being a burden on the people around me, and I didn't even notice.

So uh. That has to stop. Because it's resulted in a lack of drive, an ever-present fog of anxiety, and the brutal frustration that comes with those. And it's hurting me. It's cost me relationships with people I treasure and I don't want to be like this anymore.

Apologies for giving myself therapy on the dash, but uh. Yeah. This turned into a little more than I intended. But yeah, in case anyone else is stuck in a similar rut, this is your reminder that you are allowed to want things. You are allowed to have needs and desires that are not easily fulfilled and may even be a bit of a burden to your friends and family sometimes. In fact, trying to minimize yourself will make you more of a burden, because even if you don't see it, they will see that you are hurting yourself, and that will hurt them because they care about you. So the next time you find yourself just making do, or making yourself less, or not really knowing yourself, take a minute and think about what you want. Don't be realistic, don't be considerate, just be honest with yourself and think about what would be really nice. Then, when you can, tell people about it. Maybe they can help you find out what it would take to get it. I promise it'll be a lot better for you, and for them, than hiding yourself away. I'm going to try to follow this advice too. Here's hoping it brings some clarity, at the very least.
