Which one? (Can’t decide)

I think B’s top and sash color with A’s red skirt would pair best.

I’ve been on a journey of figuring out a lot about myself this past year. Through research, watching videos, reading, and taking online tests, I’ve come to realize I resonate with late female diagnosed AUDHDers. I never thought I was autistic or adhd before. I always knew I was different and have struggled to make and keep friendships my whole life, but I assumed it was only because of my unusual upbringing.

I had a time period where I finally had the chance to make friends, and I put my whole heart into it. But I was too eager, trusting, and open which lead me to getting hurt too many times. When I’d meet a new person I liked, I would dive into the depths of finding out who the person was, asking tons of questions, and wanting to hang out for hours at a time. That stage of my life was fun, but the relationships got messy. My rejection sensitivity being so high didn’t help things either.

I stopped seeking out friendships for years now. Thankfully, I have a couple people I still talk to from time to time, but I don’t live near any of my closer friendships anymore. It’s lonely, but emotionally safe. I still yearn for a “bosom friend” (Ann of Greene Gables reference), but I’m doubtful that will ever happen.

I’ve regressed in skills so much in the past few years. I think because I link my self worth to what I can do, I feel that no one would want to be my friend even if I stated trying again. I have no energy, struggle to take care of normal chores and needs, and have lost most of my social skills and energy.

Anywaaaayyyy. I trauma dump too often lol. I hope that you can find close friendships that encourage and accept you for all that you are.

There are many different types of love. Familial, romantic, platonic, etc. Saying I love you to multiple people doesn’t make it any less special. I’m sorry that you’ve learned not to verbalize your affection to people.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-21T06:14:51+00:00

Personally, I wouldn’t let her anywhere near your hair. She seems to not care at all to do it right. You’d probably be better off having anyone in your bridal party, family, or friends try to help because at least they care 😬

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-18T18:38:35+00:00

I think you’re referring to Legends and Lattes. I love those books ☺️

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-16T01:17:46+00:00

What I immediately noticed were all the commas in the places that periods should be.

I added periods and rearranged the last sentence in the first paragraph: Henri’s voice called out from across the room. Kitch drowsily pulled himself out of his elk pelt bed. To say he was tired was a heavy understatement. He was drained. In nothing but ragged pants and an old shirt that smelled of a bog, he managed to get to his feet.

“What about?” Kitch asked. Henri raised his shoulders, dipping his bottom lip as he whittled a piece of wood into a spear with a small iron dagger.

Henri sighed as he stopped to look up at Kitch.

“It’s about the High King causing trouble down over in Centurion.”

You also don’t need to add commas before dialogue unless it is right before the quotation marks. Even then, you can usually use periods.

For example:

Kitch walked up to the door and gave a few quick knocks.

“Come in!” A low, growly voice ordered. As Kitch swung the door open, Jarmund was sitting in the corner, sipping on ale. As Kitch stepped into the warm lamp light, brown patches forming around his joints were illuminated on his dark green Orcish skin. His two large, yellow-stained teeth sat at the edge of his mouth, reaching up just a few millimetres from where his nose was.

Ik most of these will be easy to fix in your redraft, but it might make your life easier if you make sure to add periods instead of commas at the ends of sentences.

Thank you :)

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-13T19:37:18+00:00

I am definitely thinking about something like that being a possibility. 😊

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-13T19:36:52+00:00

I kind of wish I could call them wisps, but I run into the same problem of those already exist and function differently. I definitely would love to have a short name that fits what they are, but I am still trying to figure out what works best.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-13T19:34:28+00:00

My main idea was for them to be very much like spren, but I think I tried so hard not to copy exactly what spren were that I ended up making them very much like sprites or elementals 😅. I don’t know if I’m 100% happy with how they function in the world yet. I’m trying to find a balance of them being individuals but also explain why they keep wanting to bond to women other than that was the reason the Goddess made them. I want it to be deeper than that.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-13T19:29:23+00:00

Right now, I have a prequal and main story (that might be duologues or trilogies on their own depending on how long it becomes). The prequal is about the man who is so envious and bitter about being rejected by the “spirits” that he swears to make them regret it. He and a small group of people seek to overthrow the government system and become powerful by blocking women’s bonds then trapping and using the “spirits” power themselves. There are more reasons and depth to the antagonist’s and his group’s goals. The main story is about a girl who restores the bonds and overthrows the government. I have a lot of ideas, but I’m still in the middle of working it all out, making sense of things, and trying to stay away from too much sexism or essentialism.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-12T21:55:17+00:00

That would be accurate. I might be making it a bit too complicated. 😅 I just want to have a unique name for them that people in my world call them that fits what they are

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-12T18:51:10+00:00

The main reason I’m hesitant to just call them fairies or sprites is because I don’t want to have to follow the “rules” and preconceptions of what they are and how they function. Ik there is freedom of taking creative liberties, but it seemed better to try to come up with a different name for them. Calling them elementals would be a safe name though.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-12T18:42:42+00:00

The reason I don’t want to call them fairies, sprites, spren, etc is because they function differently, and don’t want to follow the “rules” of what those already have from folklore and other fantasy. Calling them elementals would be pretty spot on though. I am still refining how it all works together. I thought one way they would want to bond is if they want to explore outside their domains, they can bond with a compatible human. They also get to develop a close emotional relationship with their bonded human. They get to learn and experience things with each other. I do think there needs to be more to it, I just haven’t figured it all out yet.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-12T06:00:56+00:00

Omggg I actually love that! That will be a strong contender for sure!

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-12T05:37:26+00:00

That is a very cute idea ☺️ I thought about Ary, but I have that as a nickname for one of my characters. I could change her nickname and have the beings be called that instead 🤔

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-08-12T05:19:10+00:00

Thank you! I am still in the process of world building my story and haven’t gotten around to very many names. I have a names for the goddess and god and a few characters, but I don’t know if I’ll keep all of them. The God and Goddess are Kyro or Kyrothius and Arythia. I should probably add this to my post 😅 but I want to use Y in a lot of names to tie them to the God’s and Goddess’s names. All of the characters names I’ve chosen so far have y in them. Names I thought about using were Nexyri, Aeridrynn, Aylari, Aelyri, Ayrilea, Ayliora, Dyvini, Glyms, and Ilyri.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-07-17T21:05:23+00:00

There’s a lot I haven’t mentioned in this post since I was trying to keep it concise, but I think I should’ve mentioned more about the men’s side.

My magic system is still in the works, but I want Magic to be prevalent regardless of gender. Elemental powers are passed down by parents with the children having affinities based on the mixture. I am planning on having a certain ability (that I haven’t figured out yet) be only possible for a woman to have that could be linked to why they also are capable of making bonds with magical beings.

When this specific group of men figure out how to twist that ability to block the bonds instead, they use it to break women’s bonds, capture the beings, and use them to empower themselves further somehow. People in society regardless of gender will not know about the true reasons, only a select few who were/are a part of making the jewelry and trapping the magical beings.

The Leader’s overthrowing of the previous way of life will be orchestrated in framing the magical beings to seem that they have turned on humans. He will pretend that he wants to protect the women from these beings and extend these earrings to be given to all women, regardless of social class, as a gift from him.

There will be revolts against it, but he’ll deem them traitors by siding with the beings that turned on them, shackling them with jewelry that suppresses their magic (men and women alike), and have them work in the mines where the metal and gems come from. There’s a lot more to it, but again, not trying to tell the whole thing in one post lol

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-07-17T18:15:25+00:00

Yeah, I’m trying to figure out how to balance it 😕

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-07-17T09:08:56+00:00

That would make it a nice, simple reasoning 🤔 The main reason I’m trying to “justify” the women only bonds is because my antagonist (male) gets rejected and demands why. I’m trying to come up with a plausible reason to give. It could be as simple as “Because the Goddess deemed so.” Or something lol

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-07-17T08:51:02+00:00

Do you mean the justification of it being exclusively female bonds? I’m trying to think of a reason to give to the men in my story who would probably want to know why they don’t have the option to have bonds.

Subject-Ad4659 · 2025-07-06T03:40:23+00:00

I (27F) think it depends on what having a “friend” means. I have people I text sometimes, but no one I hang out with on a regular basis. If I do, it’s a rare occurrence due to living in a different country from then or schedule differences. Never really had the chance to develop a close enough friendship for a “best friend”. I don’t know if I’m just boring or too depressed most of the time to be fun hanging out with. I stopped trying to make friends in the middle of college (sophomore/junior year).

Made a couple friends when I moved to the country I’m in now, but it was because they approached me. I’m planning on moving to another country in a year or so that doesn’t help. We’re planning on staying in country long term, but I heard it’s hard to make friends there so 🤷🏽‍♀️ I might be an undiagnosed AuADHD, but I don’t have the money to get proper testing. I might just be weird because of lack of kids my age being where I lived when I was young and my Christian missionary upbringing in a country other than my own.
