oops

Yesterday I gave someone one of my CTL business cards because they had opened up and were in crisis. Well, I didn't give it to him/her directly, I gave it to a friend who knew about the situation to give to the person.

But this morning I looked at the card, it wasn't a card detailing how to call them if you need help, it was an enlistment card to get volunteers! It read, "You don't need a cape to save lives", and on the backside was a link to their volunteering.

But hey, hopefully they'll know that I'm not asking them to volunteer, but to call. Hopefully they'll look it up. Hopefully they'll get the help they need. At first I thought "Uh oh", but my heart was in the right place and hey, if it works, it works!

can't sleep for my life rn. I find myself growing fonder and fonder of Ashley. As fond as I am of Megan, even. There is a hole burning in my chest as I write this. I knew what she meant when she said, "I think this relationship will make me sad." I didn't need to ask. But I asked, anyways. I wanted to hear her say it. Why does she like me? It would be so much easier if she didn't. I would love her quietly like I do with the others. Write about her, think about her, dream about her. I dreamt about her three times this week. I didn't tell her about them though. Why can't she be Christian? Maybe it's for the best. I imagine I would be far too distracted if she was; I can't trust myself to handle a relationship without failing school--at the moment. Even as she is now, she has been so good to me. She has been good for me. Not without her flaws, of course; how much more beautiful she would be if she loved Christ! But she is someone nested within regardl...

dreams (2) 4/15/20 i love elisabeth and now I’m fucking lonely again I hate this

-
I dream I am in a relationship with Elisabeth Lau. Actually the dream begins with her confessing to me. These dreams are always so nice... I hate this. Why must I always dream of fantasies, never substance? Why do I now long for someone I was never even talked to, let alone was friends with? I’ve been calling with Mikayla recently. But I wish I had a friend. Maybe she’s a friend. I don’t know what friends are anymore. I hate dreams. They always remind me of how awful my loneliness is. I’m fine for months and then bam, one night passes and life is fucking miserable again. I just wish I had a friend—no, something more than a friend. Maybe. I don't know what a friend is anymore. I want someone I can talk to whenever I want, who enjoys me enough to seek me out on their own. But can you call that a friend? I think you can, but experience has shown me other people don’t. Other people think you’re weird, or a creep, or desperate if you come on so strongly. So I come here. God I’m ...

eternal sunshine, kissing, and handholding

-
Hey, I’m starting a new series. One about plans for my future girlfriend/wife. For reference. I don’t want to forget these ideas. First, Eternal Sunshine. We HAVE to watch this movie. First or second date. Or third. Honestly I don’t care we just HAVE to watch it, I love it so much. I’ve watched it three times now. That’s in the past month. Second, kissing. When I stayed at Marian’s house, her dog Hamlet would pounce on me every morning with a flurry of kisses. I know it’s just a dog, but... I really liked that. It made me feel loved. I want to make sure that my wife feels that way, so I kiss my wife every day. In the morning, when I wake up, and when we go to bed, regardless of if she’s aware of it or not. Those two are the very minimum. Even if I’m grumpy or upset. I want to remind myself—and remind her—that I love her. Third, I will always hold her hands if we come to argue. Heck, I’ll hold her hand everywhere. This one I’m sure I won’t forget because I practically practice it ...
