Search Results: losing a friend

Back when I was around 15-17 I was obsessed with losing weight. I wasn't fat, but I had "skinny fat" and I wanted it gone. Some of my friends had started to wear two piece swim suits, but I suck with my one piece because I felt fat. One summer I tried to go a week without eating. My father caught on and got me into see a psychologist

The thin standards are just so hard to achieve. I worry for all the kids today who are on socials 24/7. I has social media as a teen too, but I feel like it's so much worse now

@LaFemmeFatale_1 asked me something about my love life earlier… and it actually stuck with me and made me think…

I’ve known someone for a long time. He’s intelligent, funny, has depth… but opening up has always been a slower process for him. It’s something that unfolds over time…. Like a really long time. We started out as just friends and then we decided to try something more…

And then there’s someone I met more recently…

We could barely communicate at first because of the language barrier lol, but somehow we kept gravitating back to each other… laughing, losing track of what we were doing like it just flowed naturally. I actually posted about him some months ago and you guys were sharing with me how you’ve dated someone who spoke another language primarily.

What stood out to me though… was the effort. And even emotionally… he didn’t rush it, but he didn’t avoid it either.

He told me:

“De nada, con gusto… es bueno saber un poco y te diré poco a poco.” (I’ll tell you more little by little.) …And he did.

He’s also the guy I was talking about when I posted about going on a date.. and asking you guys whats a good first date… anyway..

That made me question something… because I feel like we tend to assume history means more.

But what if someone new is showing you more intention?

So what matters more to you in the end?
