“Let someone love you just the way you are - as flawed as you might be, as unattractive as you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe you must hide of all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.”
I'm a little bit sad but let's start saying that I'm not feeling too well these days because I have my period now so my sadness might come from it.
So I was chatting with my gf and Idk, I felt her cold but maybe I'm just overacting... I told her I miss her and she just reacted with a heart to the message :/ then I said goodnight and she said goodnight, without saying anything else.
I know in these situations I should be clear and communicate but for now I feel like I don't want to say anything because maybe I'm just the one who's overreacting.
I think this is my first time saying it here: I have a girlfriend now. Honestly I can't remember if I talked about her in my previous posts but nevermind.
My thoughts are about the fact that, after three years from my last (and very toxic) relationship, I finally found someone who after seeing my lacks, still decided to accept me for who I am, saying that she loves me for my whole and not only for my good side.
No matter what will happen, because we all know that we never know what can happen in the future, I'll never regret my decision and my choice to open up my heart again specifically to this person.
So I'm dating this girl, I'll just call her E, to make it easy.
We met online around March and met in real life around April. She is literally a human green flag.
Except for a few things that I don't want to explain in detail, she is the cutest person in this world.
Since the beginning we felt like we've been known each other for a while, even tho we've been talking for a week only. Crazy. The connection was and is crazy.
IDK how to explain honestly. There are so many things to say about her and about me and her...
but I guess the main point of the whole situation is the fact that after the last time we met, which is some days ago, I realized my interest for her is real and is serious.
On Monday night I went to a birthday party of a friend so that night I met her friends too. There was this girl, obviously a rainbow girl. We drank together and after a few drinks she started to be closer to me, like hugging and all. At a certain point she tried to kiss me and I rejected her thinking about E. I was thinking that E doesn't deserve it. She always showed me how much she cares about me and likes me. I know we are not a couple but I know she would get hurt and she doesn't deserve it.
I can't sleep because my body is so nervous: I took the morning after pill on Thursday, u know, just to be sure.
I know I'm stupid because I should have been more careful since the beginning, but I can't do anything now, the mistake is done and now I just have to pray to not be the unluckiest person in this world.
A positive thing is that you are not in a commitment, you don't have to worry about jealousy, dates, gifts and you know, couple things. At the same time, a negative thing is the fact that you might develop some feelings for that person since you have intimacy moments with him/her.
In my opinion, I don't have such a problem because when I decide to be fwb with someone I create a barrier which prevents me from attaching myself to people romantically. Fwb is called fwb for a reason right?
Of course we can't control our heart, so starting to have some feelings can be normal if it happens, but we should know the situation we are going into.
I had some fwb that I met just to have fun and that was fine with me, but I also had other fwb that I went out with like on "dates", because it helped me then in those moments.
But I think that n1 rule is, never fall for your fwb.
