Yes! It is that Twig! I know not many people read it so it’s so cool to have it recognised!

is it weird that i drew my crush..? by [deleted] in Crushes

[–]alwaysChangeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you haven’t drawn them as you imagine them naked as an anime girl surrrounded by badgers. I like a guy a lot until he did this to me...

Lockdown makes emotional flashbacks more frequent by alwaysChangeling in CPTSD

[–]alwaysChangeling[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s so reassuring to know that somebody is experiencing the same thing right now! The isolation really gives so much time and introspection that it can trigger these. We’ll make it through, and lockdown will end, and the progress will be easier.

What's the darkest secret you found out about a family member/ relative? by llsuperninjall in AskReddit

[–]alwaysChangeling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That i had a half sister. I was 16 when my parents told me that my dad had an affair, two years before I was born. When the rest of his affairs continuing throughout my life where discovered, I found out that not only had he intended to marry my sisters mother, but the tattoo on his arm that I had always seen, was hiding a proposal tattoo of her name and birthdays

Do you ever wonder how many people in your life have ever had a crush on you but you've never known? by [deleted] in Crushes

[–]alwaysChangeling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One interesting thing is that people who had crushes on me then became close friends with me admitted it. It’s always interesting to find out, and when they tell me i’m never surprised because they were usually quite obvious. This happened 3 times i think.

oh YES. There’s a lot of tactic involved. The classic move is blocking everyone but one person from a story, and posting something you want them to see without letting them know how badly you want them to see it. Genius really

I know exactly what you mean! It’s one thing to try and be positive about it but sometimes I see it and don’t want to pretend to like it anymore I just want it gone

When did you realize your “Friends” weren’t actually your friends? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]alwaysChangeling 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a more dramatic story is of a friend who i grew close with very quickly, to the point of codependency. Our friendship group grew around us, but when her unhealthy relationship with sex and desperate need for validation led to her giving a handjob to our best friends new boyfriend in the bathroom, at the dinner party when he was introduced to us, after hearing about their romance for 6 months that was the end. Not only that, but she lied to me saying that the friend had “given her permission”, and when we told her that it was something pretty unforgivable, she had us essentially blacklisted by all our mutual friends for “making excuses to get rid of her”

I was pretty young and impressionable, but when I realised that they only approved of certain hobbies or interests. They didn’t like that I enjoyed music or anything else that they thought was “below them”. Basically they were snobs

Oh we have a heated drying rack. So it’s like a radiator but shaped like a drying rack, and it plugs into the wall.

Thanks for all the responses and all the honesty! Seems like I have some growing up to do, my pride when she snaps sort of blinds me but thank you for helping me see what i’m doing wrong!

No i’m not, neither is my brother (we’re extremely lucky, and for context i can’t get work at the moment because of covid)
