#sometimes it like. yeah. this is how it's going to be for the rest of my life. #just me and my pets and nobody else #and i think im okay with that about 80% of the time #but then that other 20% is spent looking at my sister and her boyfriend or my mom and stepdad or my step sisters and their husbands #or literally everybody else in my age group in long term relationships/marriages #and thinking ''i'd like to have a little bit of that too someday.'' #someone to hold my hand and kiss me and hold me and tell me im good enough #someone who loves me #(and ik i can also feel this way with platonic relationships #but every time someone says that in response to this (bc i've vented about it before) it just makes me feel bad for even wanting- #-a romantic relationship in the first place. like it's a shameful and dirty thing to want.) #cj talks
