So I got my period at work today with absolutely no warning and went around asking all the women in the office if anyone had anything and nobody had a single thing.
One of the guys overheard me and said he had pads in his car because he keeps them there for his girlfriend for emergencies.
And then he went out to his car and came back and handed me a pastry bag.
This man had put the pads inside a pastry bag so nobody would know what was in it. To save me the awkwardness of walking through the office visibly carrying pads. He thought about that. On his own.
And it wasn't just one, he gave me two because I had an eight hour shift and he did that math himself apparently.

dating someone who understands your mental health is soo important. there’s humans who will make you feel terrible for things you can’t or don't know how to control yet.
i no longer need hardcore proof to validate what my intuition tells me. if something feels off about a person/ place/thing, it’s because something is off. i’m not sticking around to discover what it is. my time and my energy are way too valuable.
i hate being around people who lack emotional intelligence and self-regulation. it just irks my soul. if you cannot see things outside of yourself and how you are harming others, you will never evolve. intention has nothing to do with impact.
