ppl try to psychoanalyze men and so often the answer is they just want to. like. they feel entitled to do whatever they want so they just do that. they didn't think about it all that hard.

also, I think this is a trap a lot of young women fall into. and I guess old women. of simply not being able to believe that his callousness is actually, yes, that superficial. so much hurt he causes you is barely registering to him. he didn't think about you at all. he cheated because he wanted to have sex. he lied because he wanted to get his way. he agrees with your assessment of how his childhood trauma impacts his behaviors because it gets him out of the convo faster. he is just literally sitting there with circus theme music in his head thinking how do I stop what's stopping me from doing what I want right now so I can go back to doing what I want right now and you crying is like...an inconvenience. no worse. it's a obstacle to overcome. so he can go back to video games or whatever.

the best brand of horror is when something or someone that you abhor or that you fear changes you so subtly and gradually that you don’t even notice until it’s too late and by then, you have become as monstrous as the thing that changed you.

i’m traveling with my sister but we are arriving to the airport from different locations; my flight lands 6 hours earlier than hers. i asked my parents if they think it’s a good idea to uber on my own to the hotel, which is 30 minutes away, and they both vigorously and vehemently rejected the proposal. my mom thinks i’ll be abducted taken style and my dad immediately said ‘u love cafes, right? find one in the airport and STAY THERE till ur sister arrives’. i’m a grown woman (fyi my sister is 24 and is younger than i am) but i won’t deny it i love when they get protective of me 🥺

i wasn’t sure about signing up for the writing class again, mainly bc i felt like i might be intruding as a repeater, but i missed my instructor terribly and i remembered that classes always begin at the end of march so in an impulsive fit, i went for it and i don’t regret it at all! my heart lit up like a christmas tree when she sent out the welcome email and the timing for the upcoming class (on the weekend when ill be in dublin). i should never get too in my head and never lose myself to the weird spiral. JUST DO IT (and by it i mean things that bring u joy esp concerning creative endeavors)
