im sentimental. i sleep a lot. sometimes i cry a little on public transport. when my friends tell me they love me, i feel as though my heart will burst. i take pictures of nice dogs i see on the street. i notice the changing of the seasons, and i get excited. i like fresh fruit. little things make me happy, and i hope i stay this way.
“soft” butches who respect your boundaries, show you tenderness, protect you, and want to take care of you are just simply butches!!! there is nothing inherently “soft butch” (i.e. “less butch”) in butches doing these things for their lovers! in fact, these things is what makes butches butch!!!!
Morning sex with soft touches under the sheets and slow, hot kisses peppering jaw lines and lazy thrusts covered by whispered “I love you“‘s and small gasps
Y’all almost beat my ass when I said this awhile ago but it’s true!
this is actually the primary reason me and my ex broke up. as an only child I’m very used to being alone and he didn’t grow up that way so it reqlly bothered him. whenever I wanted alone time he worried that that really meant I wanted time with other people and I’m just like what????? people need space. period. a relationship is not a contract for ownership. your partner is a whole person with their own shit before, after, and during your relationship.
The tags killed me
This is an ongoing issue in my relationship. I dont understand this. I’m like “we need to be together ALL THE TIME ” and hes like “I need time alone”
Why?
Because your partner is still their own person who deserves basic respect and that includes space. Y’all don’t need to be around each other 24-7.
You’re probably suffocating them.
Can we please also establish that wanting to spend time with people other than your partner without them there is totally legitimate and doesn’t mean you are cheating or love them any less
imma keep it real with you chief. sometimes university workloads are just fucking unreasonable and unfeasible unless you’re not mentally ill or you’re someone who’s able to be On™ and productive 24/7 (which is like.. no one??) and no amount of “you need to learn time management skills because this is what it’s like in the real world” is gonna change that
