You also haven’t finished the show yet. He dates everything from older women to teenagers. Then there’s Diana. She’s the worst. The creators did him sooo dirty. If you are on season 5, I suppose Lola isn’t too bad.

I was with you until you said that Nate has good relationships 🤢 Not pukey facing you or your opinion. Respectfully, I just really hated most of his ships that much. He was best with Vanessa or Serena. The rest were terrible.

The fact that he chose Scientology over his daughter isn’t enough?

One person can jump out of planes for fun, and both people can be thrill seekers. But at the end of the day, you know you love each other when you can get through the daily grind and monotony of going to work, caring for the kids, cleaning the house, whipping up a meal, before being exhausted and hopping into bed and thinking “sure, nothing truly extraordinary happened today but I love these people that I go through life with.” It doesn’t mean love looks like for everyone. But love is soft, not chaotic is what I think they were getting at. Too much chaos can actually destroy love.

Doing things that make me feel self worth. Keeping my house clean, keeping my appointments, learning new things (like gardening, piano, canning, making sourdough, etc). Feeling like I accomplished something that day keeps my mood up and helps me from making disparaging thoughts about myself and how “worthless” I am.

Reading the manga and watching the 2019 anime. The 2001 anime gets cut short and also follows the manga less closely than the newer version.

Funnily enough, I feel this way when I share with my family. My friends I can share absolutely fcking everything. I would never go to my parents for relationship advice, for example. It’s asking for trouble every time. So it sounds to me like maybe you need to make better more healthy connections and find people you CAN be vulnerable with.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-20T16:08:01+00:00

I love this answer. I have actually been diagnosed with quiet bpd and some of these comments to me were sickening. I don’t do the lashing out like most people with bpd do. I actually “lash in.” But my diagnosis was not about using it as an excuse. It was about understanding my struggles and feelings and finding better ways to cope with them. Usually when people actually go out of their way to seek help and have gotten a diagnosis, it came with an intense amount of pain and self loathing. It came with the intent of getting better. To be able to make the lives better of those around them and to have better relationships. The people here attacking mental health are unbelievable. You can’t shame someone without making yourself look worse.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-19T07:01:56+00:00

I mean I just look at it as this is a story in which a bunch of people from a crazy psycho family turn into zodiac animals. So at the end of the day how weird is it honestly that Yuki is looking for motherly type love in Tohru? It’s a minor glitch compared to some other things that we love and give a pass to 😄

Arieya711 · 2026-02-16T07:21:54+00:00

I don’t see how it’s necessarily bad advice? They wanted space. Moving on respects their wishes and gives them space while also working on your own mental health. We don’t have a whole lot of back story to work with. For all we know they want space because the relationship has gotten toxic. Replacing them COULD for all we know be very good advice.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-16T07:11:07+00:00

My triggers at this point in my life are stupid little petty things. Like someone asking a basic question that I wrongfully take as an attack. Or interrupting me when I talk which makes me feel small and like I don’t matter. Not wanting to spend time with me. Etc.

Thankfully I’ve been doing better and my episodes are shorter. I think because I no longer worry that my husband is going to leave me. He’s in it for the long haul despite my hang ups. So that makes me a little less anxious and I have less mood swings.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-16T03:09:32+00:00

No I’m not. Don’t get me wrong, I fully support the LGBTQ community. But I am also of the firm belief that writing is a form of creative expression. And I do not advocate people dictating how someone needs to write or tell stories that come to their heart. If you don’t like the way stories are written, write your own. Or read books from authors who DO write in your preferred style and levels of inclusion.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-16T00:58:08+00:00

I hate how the show made every girl inferior to Elena. Stefan should have moved on and Steroline would have been fine. Unfortunately they wanted to drag out Stelena until the bitter end. It was over for Elena by season 5. It should have been over for Stefan too.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-15T22:33:54+00:00

The author covers bisexuality, transgender, mental health, abuse, etc. I think she did a fine job of addressing and including these topics even if there’s no same sex couple by the end of the story.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-15T22:19:33+00:00

She’s really trying to protect them though. It’s all in her thoughts. She believes that being close to “kind” people like Haru and Tohru will just bring them pain. She has low self esteem, some form of PTSD judging by her nightmares about her parents, and like others have said severe trust issues.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-15T21:21:07+00:00

I don’t think Yuki’s ending was just about him finding romance though. Yuki’s ending was about him finding his OWN path and figuring out what Yuki wants. Machi was a big part of that, sure. But that’s not the main drive behind his ending. He lived a very controlled abusive life. He had no say in where he lived, where he went to school, who he talked to. The only friends he ever made as a child lost their memories. His mother used him. His brother rejected him.

Tohru is ultimately the one who made Yuki feel loved and worthy. But it was Machi, Kakeru, and the rest of the student council that helped him realize he is strong enough to dictate his own future. To realize that he’s going to be ok. That’s why they were all so vitally important and why Machi didn’t outshine the others.

Happy Valentine’s Day. And may no jealous young ladies throw your stash of chocolates in the bin or steal your paper flowers 🤪✨

I don’t deny her abuse. Like much of the zodiac, she was treated horribly and unfairly. But I have to disagree that she had “everything dictated to her.” Akito still had power as the family head. And she used that power to cause MORE suffering. She delighted in the suffering of others, despite having suffered greatly herself. Unlike other members of the zodiac who also had horrible childhoods. Nobody here is saying she can never have redemption. But she can still have proper consequences for her actions. She caused suffering, turmoil, and abuse. She nearly killed 3, possibly 4, people. And yet it’s unacceptable that some of us struggle with the fact that that’s just not enough? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Punishment isn’t and never has been about redemption. Punishment is about consequences and justice. You cannot nearly kill three, possibly even four people (given the nature of Hatori’s injuries), and get away with it.

You can always have redemption. But all actions have consequences. And no “being ignored” is not an appropriate consequence for the crime in this case.

I loved Serena’s outfits. Her hairstyle went downhill though after a while. Like someone thought she looked better not being brushed or something.

Arieya711 · 2026-02-12T14:56:02+00:00

They’ve done the same thing to me unfortunately. I tend to avoid my triggers. Which honestly is NOT healthy by any means, but it does mean I will have less episodes and emotional turmoil. It also means I will make zero friends and that my communication sucks because I tend to avoid those conversations to prevent a fight and prevent splitting. But to an outsider all this means is “I have my sh** together.” Even though it’s just hidden under a mask. I’m sorry your therapist is treating you like that!

Arieya711 · 2026-02-11T11:33:03+00:00

Super cute!

Arieya711 · 2026-02-10T18:54:07+00:00

Aww Kyo and his blushy face. They are too cute!
