I really like fictional couples that actually enjoy spending time with each other. It seems like such a simple, mundane thing. But, often, I see fictional couples who are completely enamored and dramatic and willing to die for each other, which is fine. But like… do they enjoy hanging out? Do they have private jokes and would they be friends even if they weren’t in love? It feels like such a basic thing, but it’s something that I actually don’t see that often. And it feels so refreshing and honest compared to these over-dramatic romeo and juliet-esque romances. Just two people who become good friends and because they enjoy each other’s presence so much it grows into a strong attraction. It feels more real and tangible than two attractive people meeting and “falling in love at first sight” - like, of course, you fell in love at first sight! You’re both supermodels! Sorry, can’t relate.

chris asked me a few months back if i was over my crush on our mutual friend (a crush that i admitted to chris only under the influence of an obscene amount of alcohol and that i regret telling him of immensely) and i said yes. just got off a call with said friend, and if the way my heart clenched every time he laughed is any indication no i am not over it.

it just keeps getting worse, yue qingyuan just keeps getting more pathetic and more despondent. how does shen yuan not realise??? or does he just not care??? again i don't think the right answer is to actually encourage a relationship with ygy again, shen jiu is dead and shen yuan does not love him, but he could have explained it earlier instead of dragging it out and resigning yqy to such a slow painful death. i am legitimately concered ygy will not make it out of this fic, and he's so sad that i can't even really be happy for binghe and shen qingqiu. like he really screwed his whole life over, chasing security for him and shen jiu only got him trapped in a miserable job, he was so cruel to shen jiu that shen jiu died of grief (insane), liu qingge is in love with shen yuan and is constantly angry with him for how he treats him, and shen yuan - who he thinks is shen jiu - doesn't notice any of this and is more than happy to nope out anyways and go off with binghe. he has no lover, no family, no friends, his political position is in jeopardy. like. can he. can he please catch a break. i am not a yue qingyuan fan but damn any human would feel for him

reading i wish you were my husband by feynite and crying because of how cruel shen yuan is being with yue qingyuan 😭 it was deserved at first but honestly yue qingyuan is just so pathetic i want someone anyone to throw him a bone omg you don’t have to love him a yuan but could you maybe like talk with him like ever ????

It’s fine because I’m actually using a secret technique called writing it in my head and nowhere else.

Be open to the possibility that people speak nicely about you behind your back, that people are rooting for you, advocating for you, and finding ways to support you.

ik i post about this basically every time i go out but it happens every time i go out but i wish i could make my flatmates understand that i am not « fun » by choice and not by nature. i choose to stay at home because i want to be serious about my work and yk have a somewhat adult schedule. however i do know how to have fun and in fact have had probably a bit too. much too much fun in undergrad

over-psychoanalyzing blorbos is healthy and needed enrichment for the girlies in order to avoid over-psychoanalyzing themselves. like giving a dog a chew toy in order to redirect chewing on its hind legs

I'm almost 30 and still amazed you can just walk into a library and pull a book off a shelf and read it, don't even need to ask anyone, can just sit down and read book for free until closing time. There is nothing that free anywhere else that isn't serreptitiouly religious or requiring registration. that's how stuff should be. Libraries are so good
