that's quite similar to how my mother talks about my girlfriend.

you know you've found the one when people keep telling you that they act almost exactly like you.

that's when you know just how much you two click.

love it, Nath, congrats

Well before that, I got trolled by my mother. She turns to my girlfriend and says something to the effect of millions of choices and you picked him?

I turned to my GF at that point and told her that I warned her that this would happen.

[Going_North_cal]

ah yes my mother did that too :3

my beloved also does the same thing, teasing me about that.

It's been over a month.

I should have pinged you sooner, my bad.

Do you have any updates???

Kindaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Okay so I asked her a month out and she basically said she wasn't emotionally ready for a relationship cause she had lots of emotional "bleh" left over from her last one. And I was kinda crushed 

But then last night we were talking and she said she might have feelings for me but she's still trying to figure out what the heck's going on. And now I don't know what to think cause I was really sad about her not reciprocating and kinda ready to move on but I think I still have feelings as well and maybe she does?! So it's a whole really weird confusing situation.

adviceeee needed

Mk. This is a really simple solution;

Simply just be her friend right now. If she is reciprocating, and you are being a good friend, chances are she'll tell you, and it'll be good. All you can do right now is just be there. You don't need to do much, just... yeah, just be chill and be there for her. Be a good person

I think this is like the best advice for crushes. Like the very best I have ever seen or heard.

[ThroughTheLivingSequence she/her/they/them]

Calano is wise far beyond his years!

[Going_North_cal]

You are all too kind

[That1Cellist he/him]

But like, actually. That's really good advice.

[Nathrangking he/him]

Wise he is I think. Well put @CalanoCorvus! 

[Going_North_cal]

Thank you, thank you. Should I put it in my signature? That I am wise in relationships?

It can't hurt. If you didn't have the chance to check I made a SU yesterday to explain my cryptic ones of last week.

[Going_North_cal]

Explain further.

Now.

(please)

[Nathrangking he/him]

Far be it from me to hijack this thread. I was cryptic for that reason.

[Going_North_cal]

it's not hijacking it's getting everyone who doesn't follow you and can see your SU's to give you much deserved congrats

because congrats

that's massive and huge and congrats im so happy for you (and also insanely jealous)

For those who don't know I wrote this last week and posted it on the shard:

Sonata of the Stars

Hear me infernos of silver that watch now a world plunged into the depths of a damned realm that spawns monstrosities beyond imagining. The earth is torn asunder so totally that screams of the primordials fly skyward begging that mercy be extended to mortal and immortal alike. Hordes without end, endless bestial armies drench the ground in spilled scarlet and gold. Cities are brought to ruin, choking the air with smoke and dust that seep into the wounds of the dead and dying. Children orphaned of all are desolate and alone while woods from the very beginning of all remembering crumble and fade into the stuff of memories that only oblivion can and will remember. Screaming piercing the cosmos and tearing gashes in the tapestry of the upper realms does nothing to sway cold flames that consume the obliteration of everything with absolute dispassion. Tears boiling as seas expose the bones that few have ever seen go unanswered while all flesh bound to this plane is lost.

 

From amongst the prayers launched as a sun-blotting rain of arrows comes now a voice to soothe away the agony that has pared away all but the slightest sliver of meat from the spirits of those who once lived. She descends at speed, tossing aside any protests from those who lust for living sacrifices. That host that has left the desiccated husk of a world once glorious and filled with vitality roars when spears of those whose voices are now silent fill them with every moment of pain, dread, despair, and loss that they evoked and carved into their victims. Deserts sprout even as the waters of the oceans rush to return to their sources healing the mother that was bereft of her children. Stones that were reduced to no more than powder now ascend into edifices ever more magnificent than humans could ever create. All the while, music most sublime is played by the hands of she who pulls down the stars and as something more precious than even a deity could reckon brings dreams long sought into this void. A reign not sought begins and will not end until long after the lights of the sky are no more.

 

This was one part of the proposal that I made to my now fiancee last night. It went down like this: We found a suitably scenic spot. I emailed her the poem which had the proposal tacked on as a second page. By the time she had read them I was down on one knee with the ring box open and held in my palm. I asked: what say you? She said yes.

Smooth .

I know how that feels though.

Still a legend. May you both have a very long and happy life together.

because now you have that.

Indeed. Though I have no doubt when the time comes for you to ask your beloved you'll be the one whom I have to call epic and legendary.

Yes, speaking of;

Don't worry, nothing bad, simply some thoughts I've had, and now I'm asking for advice.

Here's the thing; We're in high school. Commonly, high school relationships don't last long. Our plans for life don't really mesh well together. So, I've decided to simply be myself and enjoy it. If it ever ends, even though I hope it never does, then so be it. She has ideals and endeavors and dreams, and I want to see her fulfill those dreams. The smile on her face when she talks about them is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

I do hope that day comes, and I do hope it is with her, but for now, I will not dwell on the future. I shall dwell simply on the present. If anyone has words for me, they'd be appreciated.

If I may. The key is you are in High school and young. You are correct there are times when high school relationships fade. This can happen for any number of reasons. It is not something to be seen as a foregone conclusion. Though your love is not yet tested it seems that you are serious about each other unless I am reading this wrong. A wise friend once told me love is wanting the best for somebody even if that best means that they are not with you. That is real love. You don't love because you'll somehow gain something from it that is shallow infatuation that easily falls apart. Living in the present is very important. However, at the same time not losing sight of crucial things like those we love are as important as well. Be you, let Doomslug Luna be herself. Let the love run its course and keep being awesome.
