first day off work in a full week! but I had to wake up to go to (a very queer affirming) church 😔

I got my family to go to a vegan restaurant by day queer bar by night for lunch :3

Did they just not teach anything in school? I had to be able to put all 50 states and their capitals on a map in like third grade

I dated this girl in high school. She tricked me. We had a fascinating philosophical discussion after school one day and I instantly fell for her (intellect is my #1 attractive trait). Didn't help she was also a goth/emo girl. It was the full package. I was in love!

Once we started dating though, she turned into an airhead. I never again saw any hint of intelligence from her. She was blindly loyal to me, though. Wanted to follow me to the ends of the earth, no matter where life took me.

Unfortunately, she needed so much maintenance. She had no dreams or aspirations of her own. No plans for her future. She was basically just coasting through life at the whims of her surroundings. And she was 1000% dependent. If I wasn't around for a while, she'd slip into depression and start cutting herself. That was the emo side of her coming out. She already had scars on her arms and legs when I met her.

When I joined the military, I decided I needed to end things with her. I couldn't drag her around the world with me. Military life was already stressful enough; I didn't need the equivalent of a human pet to care for at home. I needed a human being who could take care of themself. I needed an equal partner in life.

Last I heard from her, she went to college for a year, dropped out, then became a manager at the local McDonald's next to the campus. She gained tons of weight and started dating some local meth head dude that was at least a decade older than her. I still worry about her sometimes, but I've since lost contact with her.

Sucks to see people go down that path. I'm a goth too, many of my friends were like this. If I'd take a wager, I think many of them were neurodivergent and not coping well, like me. I hope she turned her life around, I managed to.

Don't worry about it, it's not a real country, this post is misleading.

Holding hands is cool.

Your phone screen locker usually tells you what day it is.
