no literally, just talking. i spent hours catching up with a friend, just talking and not even once glancing at my phone or the time or where we were. i know the trend is ~yapping~ but truly i think we all need to start showing up more for our friends and just talking until it’s late and you’ve spiraled from “have you seen that tik tok?” to “yeah, well, its interesting because my mom and i used to have a strained relationship and now…”
Some former mutuals have recently expressed their interest in getting to know me and it’s made me feel really good about myself! one was a match on a dating app (😽) and one was a spontaneous invite to a group hang that has now blossomed into several other hangs both independently and in a group setting. It feels nice to have irl people say “hey i’d like to get to know you better,” especially since i made it a goal to seek intimacy and connection more this summer. ♥️♥️♥️
