Especially when it's our first time interacting. Like, this is still the awkward phase, nowhere to go but up from here.... "This is the best you've had, seriously? Damn... I'm sorry. I mean, glad I can share my skills with you, but damn."

When shaking his hand, I said:
All my partners have said that I gave the best head / I was the best sex they've ever had.
(though I know there's always room for improvement - but when people tell me that, I always say "I'm sorry" because I wish it hadn't been so disappointing for them before me.)

(... while referring to his girlfriend who was next to him, and then claiming to be good at it -- she didn't correct him, but she didn't vehemently agree either, so I'll reserve judgement till I can ask her when he's not in the room, lol)

Was able to locate a method that works for jpgs. Now to sort it out for video files since that's a whole different field tracking the "media created"... so much fun

"If you experience limerence, it means you experience love intensely, are determined when pursuing your goals, and are willing to work hard – now you need to turn those qualities towards yourself, rather than another person."

"This is the extent of my being.. This is where I stop, and that is where you begin." That kind of boundary as well. Avoiding codependent tendencies and maintaining a sense of self regardless of anyone else's involvement - while also avoiding toxic independence.

Speaking up for needs is just as much about setting and maintaining boundaries as it is about letting others in to help you fill those needs. Somewhat in terms of how the other person should respect you, but also how you should respect yourself and maintain your individuality.

There's always value in spreading joy, no matter how short-lived. Denying others the chance to help me is not how I want to go about life. But I really need to put the work in & be less afraid of losing people by asking for things.. & to know that people filtered out by it shouldn't be kept so close

I'm always so afraid to speak up for my needs. Something deep in my core feeding that.
But I get joy from helping others. What if they could get joy from helping me? And why would I deny them that pleasure? If they really like me, they would be happy to make a smile cross my face.

And I have done a lot to earn and deserve better (to have my needs met and to be taken into consideration) - from myself and from those I choose to keep close. But they can't know how to treat me the way I want to be treated unless I speak up for myself and tell them.

I want someone to help me help myself grow. I am the one who needs to do the work, but I know how much I benefit from encouragement and guidance in my chosen direction.
I may still have a lot of healing to do, but I am whole and complete just as I am.

I want to be wanted just as much as I am in want of another person - though I want it to be in a healthy manner where independence is maintained. Where it's a true partnership with people working together to inspire each other and help each other work on their own growth.

They say, "if you love someone, let them go. If it was 'meant to be', then they will come back." This is a reminder that true love is reciprocated. And sometimes we hold on too tightly and in doing so, run the risk of smothering the flame of the object of our adoration.
I don't want to do that.

"Stalking" ? Fuck no. That's creepy and intrusive.
But a bunch of the other stuff rings a little too true. And I'm thankful to have seen those signs in myself early on, though I've struggled to figure out how to go about those feelings in a healthy way.
Really, the right answer is to let go.

it's maddening to watch a debate over your exclusion from society take place predicated on the bald-faced lie that the reactionary transphobic bigots are even a little bit afraid
firstly because i don't give a shit, my body is not a threat no matter how they perceive me. secondly, they're lying!
