See, that’s what the app is perfect for.

Sounds perfect Wahhhh, I don’t wanna

i’m 15. been in the closet for 3+ years, which isn’t exactly a huge effort due to my affinity for dresses/lipgloss. but now there is a girl who likes me. a real girl. i feel sick and scared. i dont even know if i like her back. i want to be your penpal.

hello young lesbian and future of our species!
don’t be afraid of the real girl. she’s also scared. everyone is scared - remember that.
i don’t know if you like her back either, i think you could figure it out via talking / hanging out w/ her. i think you should do that. there must be at least fifty ways to determine whether or not you like the real girl w/out coming out, right? yes.
i’m usually right about most things.

i just wanted to let someone know. i am extremely suicidal, and in the past week more so then ever. i have told those close to me including my own mother and they must all think its a melodramatic joke or something because it seems as if they are waiting

i don’t think you’re being melodramatic.
will you please call a suicide hotline and talk to them? they will also not think you’re being melodramatic.
it’s good that you told your family. sometimes people don’t know what to do when people ask for help.
i love you please don’t hurt yourself.

I believe Thanksgiving’s real purpose is seeing your family / friends all together in the same claustrophobic space, eating a traditional menu of some sort because humans enjoy dependable repetition, and then escaping the claustrophobic space with a reasonable amount of your dignity still intact. This might sound insane, but I love every last awkward second of it.

I don’t like how much she occupies my thoughts. Or maybe I do, but it scares me. It took so long and so much effort for me to learn how to be independent. I don’t want to lose that, not even for her.

don’t don’t don’t.
i mean it. there are no advantages
to losing your sense of independence

i would say this – keeping your independence–
this is the most important thing of all the things!
LADIES LISTEN UP
your confidence & independence
is important.
independence enhances your relationship
independence is crucial for consistently happy living

that being said,
god it’s fucking hard sometimes, amirite?
i mean sometimes you just want to
fall off a bridge into someone’s lap
jump out your window into a crowded treehouse

have 3 or 4 things you can do alone
that entertain you as much as things
you can do together.

every now and then you should test yourself by seeing how many thoughts or ideas or plans you can think of on your own without waiting for your other half to finish the sentence. if she does, though, that’s pretty fucking cute.

how do you feel about jillian michaels?

i have a few questions for jilliam michaels regarding the content of her television program ‘the biggest loser’ and for marketing some spin-off of, i assume, those pills that make you feel like you just ate a hummingbird and it’s dancing around in your skull and fingers and eventually probably kill you, at which point you will lose weight, because of decomposition, and then you will be i guess, you know, like, the biggest loser.

also, she’s gay, so. that’s something.
