it’s such a sick tragedy to have such great chemistry with someone who cannot meet you halfway communication wise. you can have so much passion, great conversation, humor & banter together & yet, their emotional maturity is nowhere to be found.
you’re doubting yourself because you’ve never been here before. that’s okay. there are many places you had never been before and you grew through them, even when you thought you couldn’t. gracefully, you will bloom here too.
if you let someone know for the first time how their actions have hurt or upset you, and the conversation ends with you apologising for doing this. it is a clear sign you are dealing with someone who is about to make your life very difficult.
I like being around people who let me be me. someone I can sit in peaceful silence with, who won’t bat an eye when I hum a weird tune aloud or blurt out random questions. someone who listens intently when I’m rambling about a topic I love, even if they might not understand
kid i used to work with at chipotle made a mixtape and one of his lines that stuck with me through the years was “i got benjamin button disease. got so many benjamins i can’t button my jeans” pretty sure he’s still working in kitchens but he at least changed me
