Friendship
How do I say I love you?. Content Warning.
It's been a while since we've spoken, and today on 14.2.2024 you replied on Valentine's, I wonder why? why is it that you finally reply? you tell me something happened recently so you couldn't reply?. ''ok'' I replied, my stomach getting butterflies as I blushed uncontrollably, "wanna call?" he said with a question mark? "sure why not" I said without the mark, we're on the call as you greet me by saying those awfully cute nicknames, I chuckle a bit to your comment, he asked if I wanna do something and I said "remember that game?" I said hesitantly as I've not been on a call for a while. he tells me he refunded it...OK! I said awkwardly he then came up with an Idea "How bout we read a novel?" he said deviously "It's called I Love You, Colonel Sanders" I hesitated at that cringy title but he said it had a high quality so I agreed. After a while, I asked if you had a valentine. He said no in a sad tone, I was curious about why. because he had a "girlfriend" "She broke up with me.." I was shocked, laying on my bed as my jaw dropped I didn't know what to say to that reply, I tried to comfort you by saying "Don't worry I also got heartbroken" but I secretly wanted to tell you about how I felt every time you laughed I would join you and laugh too, every time you said "Goodnight" my heart would skip a beat as my cheeks flustered, My pulse getting higher and higher every time I hear that soft and calming voice, "L" I desire you, I want you, I need you, so How do I say "I love you"...

Love is a Many Splendored Thing
You have quality ears And a high-end nose. Grade A meat on your bones. I once worshipped whoever I was with. The writing above is an entry in one of my journals about the primary in my first polyamorous relationship. The anesthetizing effect of love on my bipolar brain is well-documented in my writing and therapist’s notes. Monogamous or polyamorous didn’t matter to me at first. What mattered was that I had someone to call my own. I wanted to have a person like a possession. I wanted an object to admire, to use when convenient, and to ignore when it suited me. Of course, I never would have articulated my desires in this way. It sounded more like “soul-mates” or “they’re my everything.” It was romantic hyperbole. Love-bombing from a disordered brain. I would knock you off that pedestal as quickly as I built it for you. I wasn’t properly medicated for my bipolar disorder until I was twenty-seven, so every relationship before that was marred by the whims of my dysfunctional mind.

I Am A Problem. Content Warning.
Introduction I know I am a problem for most people. I see it every day on Vocal and Facebook, or I think I do. Since before Christmas, it has been made clear that my work is not good enough and there is nothing I can do to rectify that.

Anxious Attachment
I think dating in general has always been difficult for some, even before the rise of dating apps. But I do feel the introduction of them on top of social media has made it far worse. I haven't had the best luck in love, so needless to say when I do finally find someone it sends my anxious attachment into overdrive. I am so scared of being abandoned that the slightest change in someone's attitude will send me into the worst case scenario. Don't even get my started on texting, at this point I almost wish it didn't exist! It's my goal to begin working on this part of myself, so I can be better for myself and my relationships.

LOVE
Love is a complex and indescribable dance of emotions that surpasses boundaries. It is a mysterious connection that binds hearts, fostering compassion, empathy, and selflessness. Love is not a fleeting feeling, but a deep force that withstands challenges, nurturing growth and understanding. It is the warmth found in a shared glance, the comforting touch, and the unspoken language that resonates between souls. Love is both a gentle breeze and a powerful storm, capable of bringing joy, pain, and transformation. Ultimately, love is the essence of human connection, a beautiful journey that enriches the fabric of life.

Reflecting and Healing
As I am writing this (kind of late as usual...but hey it's just about to be 11pm so I am making progress LOL) I am 9 days without alcohol. When I say I am feeling all the feels, I am feeling EVERYTHING. A YouTuber that I follow is actually quitting alcohol as well. She made a Instagram post today and a quote she used was "you have to feel to heal." I really love that, because it's so true. No matter if you drink, or do anything else a lot of times we are trying to numb our feelings because it's easier than feeling them. Today I was doing a lot of reflecting on when I started this journey truly for the first time 5 years ago. I began to realize so many things and why I was so unsuccessful staying sober.
