Literally just being told that they fancy me

I cannot and will not be able to tell otherwise. My partner told me “I’m crazy about you” after we’d met (we’d been texting for a few weeks) and I was like OH COOL HE ACTUALLY LIKES ME. I have historically been a dummy for lovebombing cause I only really respond to this, but I wish more normal people had been that direct then maybe I wouldn’t have dated so many horrible people before meeting Billy. (this is also why I’m so pro dating app, because at least you know the person at least fancies you without having the guess).

down Bad for a lady

I went to this girl that I’ve been seeing for a few month ‘s show tonight. Shes the drummer and her band was soo good. I’ve listened to them before, but this was the first time I had seen her perform with the band. I’ve watched her play other times at her orchestra concerts and such but damnnnnnnnnn. I was mesmerized by her the whole time. After the show she came up to me before the next band played. Turned out that her parents were there so I had an impromptu meeting with them haha. We hung out the rest of the night until she had to wrap up. She walked me to my car and I drove her back. It’s confusing because we have an emotional connection and sometimes hang out without doing anything but that was the foundation of our relationship. I love sleeping with her, but I can tell we both like eachother to some degree. I’m just worried I like her more than she likes me, and we’re in different phases of our life. I love when we’re sweet together and we sometimes go on dates just to see eachother for a little while. We appear like a couple in public anytime we’re together, so it really messes with my head. I want more than what we have right now, and I can’t tell where we’re heading. Love being a lesbian, but I know my heart is getting wrapped up in this. I just hope this all goes the way it is meant to. 🫠

HE SUPER LIKED ME ON TINDER

I wish I had a screenshot of his profile from back then. He had a terrible tinder profile. He had one recent cute selfie as his first pic. But most of the pics were blurry and several years old. His bio was very generic something like “Hi I like video games and anime.” I was at a point where I was playing tinder like a game. I had a suggestive bio. I meticulously picked my photos to come off a certain way. I’d swipe right on so many people just because I was bored. And almost everyone would just send some shitty perverted pick up lines referencing my bio. Not my boyfriend though, he super liked me and immediately started a regular conversation. We started to talk every day on tinder and eventually Snapchat until we met in real life after two weeks. We celebrate our first date as our anniversary because we’ve basically been together ever since.

Pervert's Guide to Ideology & Capitalist Realism

I know slavoj zizek is a fucking loser now, but his movie A Pervert's Guide to Ideology was the first piece of media that began to rub away the sheen/shellac of pretense that the world operates smoothly. It was my first time really engaging with a Marxian analysis and sitting with it. I was in high school, and it set me up to care about critical theory. From this movie, I'd read Mark Fisher's really quick book "Capitalist Realism: is there no alternative?" Fisher grounds a lot of his theory in culture/media in a very similar way to Zizek. After that, I'd follow recommendations made by others in the thread!

What I do

1. Scroll the "everyone" feed (almost completely ignore that home/friends page) 2. Like gratuitously 3. Follow people who post things you like 4. I try to be brave and comment when feeling moved I don't search or look for anything in particular, personally, unless I'm about to post something and curious if others have done so already. Just let the river float by and enjoy the ride
