feverish and forsaken. on my second glass of mulled wine. never kill yourself

I love the way you defined soulmates!! I wholeheartedly and you put it perfectly

Thanks! I was wondering if I sounded too corny and ultimately decided that it doesn't matter because thats just what I think, but it's still nice to hear that someone knows what im talking about and agrees :)

I hope you have a nice day <3

something about crowds singing in unison at concerts that leaves my entire existence awestruck. its the the most human thing ever.

I'll answer the remaining ask (13 ts songs you relate to) another time, my daily reserve of brain cells is spent

But thank you so much to everyone who sent me asks, I'm having so much fun answering them!

23, 34, 69!! [I dont think my earlier ask got asked]

No it didn't, thanks for sending it in again! (and sorry it took me so long to answer eek)

23: Do you have piercings? How many?

Nope! Not really my thing. I wouldn't be opposed to getting my ears pierced (for earrings) if that counts, but I also don't care enough about it to actually get it done.

34: Who/what was your last dream about?

Already answered a few days ago, and I don't remember having any subsequent dreams either. I go through dreamless (most common since I usually don't get much sleep), nightmare and dream phases, and I'm in a dreamless one now.

69: Do you believe in soulmates?

Not in the sense that there is one person out there who's destined to become your romantic partner, no. But I believe that there are people whom you meet, and they just complete you but also challenge you and help you to grow and understand the world better by adding a different perspective, while also being someone whose company makes your life a lot happier. And a big part of it is that not just your strengths, but also your weaknesses represent two different skillsets, which let both of you navigate life better when combined. I view my best friend as a soulmate of mine, so I speak from experience when I say that there are people out there whose flaws actually work in your favour and vice versa. For example, her bluntness and unwillingness to coddle anyone (which made other people cry on several occasions, lol) is a source of stability to me because I tend to let my feelings get the best of me until I can't tell what's true and what are just my fears blown out of proportion. But if she says something unpleasant, I can be sure that she's not saying it out of malice/anger. And the thing about me is, I always prefer the truth. Likewise, if she says something that I find comforting, I know that I can believe it because she would never say things just to make people feel better.

In short, the word "soulmates" bears this fatalistic conotation that I disagree with, soulmates as I see them aren't soulmates because fate or the universe or whatever made them soulmates, but because the way they turned out to be just fits together, and it doesn't have to be a romantic thing, and there doesn't have to be just one person like that.

Thanks for the ask!

terrible questions: 3, 15, 19, 35 ❤️

Aaah thank you for asking and sorry for taking so long, here I go!

03: Do you regret anything?

Nothing big, just a lot of small regrets that are big to me. Mostly the many times I've let myself believe that my friends actually don't like me and just put themselves up with me because they don't wanna be mean, which in turn made me feel ashamed for letting that go on and try to distance myself. That of course ended up hurting others. Though I would say that once I learned to recognize this pattern I got pretty good at not letting it show/affect my actions

15: Have any pets?

No :( Right now I'm staying at a rented room in my college town during weekdays and going home for weekends, and this wouldn't work for pets. But once I'm done with school and I get a full time job and my own place, a pet is a *must*. Right now my top choice is either a cat or a couple of rats. It has also been my lifelong dream to have a dog (current favourites are golden retrievers, though I'd probably get one from the shelter), but maybe not as my first pet, since they're pretty high maintenance and I want to be sure I can give that before getting one <3

19: Would you go back in time if you were given the chance?

Nooo no no no no. Sometimes I think about it, and what the current (older and wiser) me would do in past situations, and if she'd be able to navigate them better, but I always come to the conclusion that it doesn't really matter because I first and foremost wouldn't want to experience all that again. I do think very fondly of my childhood, I was a very happy kid, but going back to that period of time would mean that afterwards I'd have to experience my high school and college years again, and no thanks. Ultimately I think it's best for the older and wiser me to apply that wisdom to the situations in front of her.

35: Who was the last person you cried in front of?

My mom lol, a few months ago. It was a sunday night and I was tired of everything and didn't want to go back to college or stay at home or be anywhere or exist in any state of being, which is something that I usually have a mental breakdown about in the peace and quiet of my own room, but she had to drive me to the train station and was unfortunate enough to witness it lolll. Embarassing

Well, this was fun; thanks for asking and have a nice day!
