I hate myself a lot. I really don't want to be here you matter in this world. would you like to talk about it? i know i'm not someone you know but maybe talking to someone you don't know well can make things easier, i know it does for me in some aspects.

a guy I'd been hanging out with for 6 months now thinking we were building a relationship because he said so himself too told me last night he'd been talking to another woman and whatever if we weren't "technically" together but it's the way he talked about her and lied about how long they'd been talking. like she was better than me, and I don't think I'm better than her, but I mean like he spoke about me as if I'm inadequate and incapable of several things. flat out made up and lied about another thing about me which made it hurt even more. i even thought we had been getting more serious lately and it hurts feeling like all this time I'd just been a placement or a toy or a prop until "something better" comes along. i hate that I let myself be used like that. just hurts and I'm tired of it. ill get over it so whatever but yeah. wish anyone was genuine anymore. especially claiming we're best friends or whatever but now barely talking to me. oh well i guess.

✲ριкαƒυєу✲<3 i'm really sorry you're going through all of that, and i want to say things will get better, but i don't know your situation or anything, but i'm here if you ever need someone to talk to. Tealravenyou don't deserve that at all, is there anyone you can talk to? because that doesn't sound good at all.

tw: mentions depiction of SA in media it’s 2022 why is “dark fantasy” still using sexual assault towards women only for the sole purpose of being grim and edgy. There are so many other ways to illustrate a crapsack world. (Looking at you, DAO diehards. “Dragon Age needs to go back to its dark roots =/= the series should bring r*pe back” FFS)

(Looking at you, DAO diehards. “Dragon Age needs to go back to its dark roots =/= the series should bring r*pe back” FFS) I don't get the appeal of dark fantasy. I understand why people want their fantasy world to be realistic (not all rainbows and butterflies), but I don't understand why it has to be filled with violence, hate, and abuse. I tried to get into Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archives, which is not a dark fantasy, but even that was too dark for me

Honestly when people seem to enjoy that kind of thing it gives me a big red flag that they're probably not good people irl if they wanna indulge in that

Sometimes I wonder if losing interest and every spark of joy in virtually everything is just a normal part of being an adult.

Sometimes I wonder if losing interest and every spark of joy in virtually everything is just a normal part of being an adult. honestly? to some extent....yes. there's an awkward period of transition between teenage and adulthood that few people talk about, which is when you rather suddenly "grow out of" everything you previously really like (even non-kid things) as your interests and tastes rapidly change almost overnight. then there's a weird period when you dont have a hobby or passion because your adult brain hasn't yet found something new to fill that void. you will, though.

Well, I just went from this path of thought to once again being concerned about everyone's perceptions of me. So yaaaay, distractions.

Dark Sun Sometimes but it can also be a symptom of depression when even the things you do enjoy lose any sense of meaning. There are difinitely things you grow out of that aren't actually fun but have a nostalgia factor but if you're constantly doing something or even trying new things that you would normally like and still going "im bored, why isn't this fun?" it might be time to reach out to someone.

I'll properly see someone about it eventually. Until then, I'm hanging on, I'll be just alright. Thank you for your concern though. After listening to some music I'm in a slightly better headspace than I was half an hour ago.

My current main email uses my deadname so I die a little inside each time I boot it up. Problem is, I am too lazy to reassign absolutely everything to a hypothetical new email. Having a deadname sucks. I heard it being said 5-6 times yesterday and each time it was uttered, some part of myself was punched in the gut.

Or if you have it linked to like important stuff like school/work/legal stuff or whatever where you still have to use your legal name, you can do what I do and just use initials.

I had no idea you could change your Gmail address name. I'll have to look into that, thank you! The initials idea works as well. Honestly I just use my email for connections to various sites (Walmart, Amazon, etc.) and, well, recently I deleted over 20 or 30k junk mail (forgot the exact amount), so that was impressive!

I suppose that's permanent. (Gosh, I feel like a Boomer.)
