Are you ok? where did you go?
i just got back like 45 minutes ago, i’ve been at manchester pride in manchester, england for the last week on a press trip. It was really great and I can’t wait to tell you all about it!
hi laneia (: love love love your tumblr! i’ve always liked guys, but now i think i’m falling for this girl. we’re friends, but sometimes i feel like she could like me too. should i ask her out? i’m scared that she’s still hung up on her ex-girl though..
hi! let me tell you something about girls who like girls: there’s a 60/40 chance that she will still have a thing for her ex-girl. and if she doesn’t have a thing for her, she’s probably got baggage from her. this statistic might not be true, but you should operate under the assumption that it is.
NEXT you’re going to definitely ask this girl out. keep my very scientific statistic in the back of your head and if she turns out to still be hung up on her ex, you can be all “i was 60% sure this shit would happen.”
the important thing is that you gave it a shot, you know?
i cant ever remember to screw the lids on things and i don’t know how much more of this my gf can take
your girlfriend can take infinity. 8s 8s 8s. who has time to screw on a lid when all you want to do is get back to her? 8s 8s.
its my first date and i really like her. one question: who pays??
i hope this helps:
mko: YOU PAY you always pay.
me: on the first date, you should split it. always split it.
mko: if you invited her on the date, you pay.
me: i hate that rule.
is it totally irrational of me to get jealous of my bffs other friends? like, i just want him to need me as much as I need him, but telling him that would be way needy. i feel stupid/crazy even typing this.
i mean you know it is irrational or you wouldn’t have asked, and you are right to feel instinctively like maybe “need” is not the primary word you should use for your best friend. maybe it would help to get a puppy. try that and call me in the morning.
recent facebook creeping informs me that my cousin has an alternative lifestyle haircut. do i inquire? we don’t see each other often, and we’re not especially close. but our family wasn’t too keen one me coming out …
i think this is like a “nice haircut! ;)” kind of thing
One of my favourite things about AS is how you and Riese and Rachel and the other writers/editors comment on posts and respond to comments and continue to be a part of the discussion after having written the article. It makes me love you even more.
this makes me so happy! we really love you guys and want to talk to you! i think autostraddle was started because riese just wanted to hang out with more smart hot girls on the internet. AND LOOK AT US NOW.
i just dyed my hair auburn and got my first tattoo today. i feel pretty good about this.
angela would be proud.
Laneia, I keep getting rejected. At first I could handle it, but 22 girls turned me down. What am I doing wrong? I feel so alone.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE. you’re not doing anything wrong those 22 girls just weren’t your girls. you need a new haircut. maybe some coffee cake.
