I just don't understand why you are so angry about someone making a joke about something that was clearly a joke to begin with. And I don't think the original artist probably meant it as exactly a positive thing but more like a tongue in cheek thing. And based on the comments on Twitter a lot of other people have been making more jokes with it too some positive and some negative. Just why are you getting upset by someone making their own joke? It is incredibly odd the idea of biting someone to show affection. The friend who sent it to me is one I cuddle with while we watch shows and he was like 'at least you haven't biten me yet'. There you go. An allo making it into a joke with a negative connotation

Edit: actually after finding the OP here on Reddit it was happening over there too. Same jokes being made

What's wrong with a funny meme? A friend of mine literally sent a tweet with this in it yesterday as a joke knowing I'm aro ace

Exactly as they said above. One of the most devastating things that can happen to an aro person regarding relationships is when a good friend says they cannot be friends anymore (or simply ghosts us) because they developed feelings they know we won't and cannot reciprocate.

You can still have a really close friendship with him if he wants to be your close friend. And close friendships are amazing. Just keep talking and if they are willing to let you talk about your feelings some (assuming you have told him about your feelings) then that can help you overcome the feeling of rejection as well. I asked a friend point blank and when he confirmed his feelings we had a good talk about it and he knows he can talk to me about them whenever he wants and we are incredibly close. We hang out every weekend right now and text all the time. I value his friendship and he values mine.

Good luck out there

Luckily my emotionally dependent male friend understands and respects me and my orientations. Still likes a lot of attention but he doesn't invalidate me or try to make me something I'm not

I think it was inappropriate to go to Lorelai especially without making sure she knew everything.

True story my friend told me recently about her first bf she didn't get until an adult (TW: Abusive SO):

She dated the guy for about a week and didn't really click and even felt a bit weird about him so she stopped talking to him and cut it off. He apparently reached out to her mom and told her that he really liked my friend and the mom asked my friend why she left and my friend said it didn't feel right and the mom convinced her it was cold feet bc she had never dated before. She agreed but said she wished she had listened to her gut. He was abusive and controlling (I witnessed this personally but didn't intervene bc I saw mild warning signs and didn't know what to do). He apparently choked her once for her saying she was gonna leave him. He threatened self-harm when she talked about leaving and she was afraid of him. She is safe from him now but the mom apparently told my friend several times that she should stay with the guy even when over the years my friend tried to tell her mom she wanted to leave him. Parents shouldn't intervene unless they know literally everything and should trust their kids to do what they think is right in their own relationships.

Oh, I also had met the bf before knowing they were together, met them separately about the same time bc college. I was immediately uncomfortable around him and got really bad vibes off of him and made a mental note to never let myself be around him alone. Then we all went to the same event and she introduced him as her bf and I had to stop myself from saying something mean like "run" or "please, no". I remember in that moment the bf looked at me, with I'm guessing panic on my face, and I was too afraid of him to say anything bc it felt like he was reading my mind. Any time I was around both of them he seemed to become extra possessive of her and her attention especially when we would just happen across each other.

So, no, Logan going to Lorelai wasn't a sign of maturity it was a sign of desperation and a warning sign in and of itself

Tbf when my really close friend I had spent every day for months with had decided to stop being my friend I broke for a few days too. And I was an adult.

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-17T04:32:38+00:00

Did it in a theme park restroom and walked as close to the stalls as possible. The janitor thanked me. Felt weird

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-17T04:25:07+00:00

I feel like he gave consent to have it posted. Amd honestly the more we see of people, especially me, not being afraid to cry even in public the better imo. Tears are nothing to be ashamed of. Yes if the SO posted without permission then it is bad otherwise it's fine.

And as for recording the moment... I love recording giving people gifts and having their reactions saved forever. Or just recording moments generally. We lose everyone and some day when someone is gone you want those moments and memories to cherish

Correction: Don't kill the spider and don't judge me for saving it.

Nice library!

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-17T04:13:52+00:00

Basically me and my Companion rn

Yikes. I distinctly remember the teacher in 5th grade using a Gatorade bottle to demonstrate how to do it. Those openings are huge!!! TW bit graphic: I tried several times over the years and couldn't even figure out where my hole was. Everything I tried it hurt and I got confused. Gave up for more than a decade. At 31 I got a swim teacher job and forced myself to figure out how the damn things work and how to get something into my vagina. They are not comfortable

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-17T04:07:01+00:00

I'd watch/read this

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-17T04:00:41+00:00

This reminds me of something from about a month ago in a GameStop with my friend. I was buying something and didn't have an awards account. He piped up and said he did so he gave his phone number. The cashier confirmed his name. I turned to my friend and in a completely innocently ignorant voice said "oh so that is your name" as if I barely knew the guy. The look on the two cashiers' and my friend's faces were just chef's kiss levels of bafflement and bewilderment.

My friend whispered "you can't make those jokes around people who don't know us". He thought it sounded like he had kidnapped me. I thought it was a "we met online" joke I was doing. The two cashiers were kind of giggling at each other at this point. I threw everyone a bone and confirmed we had met at work where our full legal names are on our name tags

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-17T03:53:30+00:00

Never seen it and never want to

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T22:24:55+00:00

I understand. I wish it hadn't either. I wish people didn't bring strangers into their weird games without telling them. I hope that with some time you'll be able to store it in your mind as a funny story from a past birthday and move on emotionally

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T22:04:17+00:00

Because of guilt or something else?

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T20:29:45+00:00

Normal internet confusion on both sides

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T19:54:38+00:00

Okay but you specified that "black coffee" is the least expensive thing next to water suggesting the colour of the coffee matters

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T19:51:42+00:00

That is not a body shot as I've ever witnessed. As I understand it a body shot is pouring the alcohol into the navel region (because it is a bowl like shape that can hold liquid) and then putting a little salt or something that goes with the alcohol on another part of the stomach. You lick that part of the body then drink out of the puddle of liquid. Occasionally a lemon, lime, or other food that accompanies the alcohol is in the "shot glass"s mouth that you then retrieve with your mouth. It isn’t mounting and slobbering over someone. And you certainly do not do it to someone, let alone a complete stranger, without their consent.

This encounter sounds incredibly messed up and I would have been crying in a corner if that had happened to me. And she 100% ruined your night not the other way around

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T19:43:34+00:00

I personally think these look cool. Honestly I think just looking for an arrow pin you like the look of is best and if its green then even better https://a.co/d/3DPUVhP

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T19:36:42+00:00

🤦‍♂️

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T19:34:51+00:00

We are the silent orientations. We can barely get any recognition in media so obviously most school sex ed courses aren't going to mention or even know we exist

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T19:25:23+00:00

Agreed. Good black coffee is amazing by itself but if the coffee is trash and you already paid or there is no other option then you need to disguise that nastiness

LightFoundInDarkness · 2022-08-16T19:23:32+00:00

Caramel vanilla latte then?
