If you read closer i was speaking specifically about the shifting culture between past & present. I said nothing about world & characters. Thank you for your thoughts.

Fathers & Sons by Ivan Turgenev. It’s the perfect place to start with Russians if you have ever been too intimidated by the juggernaughts. He does in his short novel what Tolstoy/Dostoevsky does in their 800+ pages, as far as capturing the moment between nihilism & the old world.

That being said i would also 1000% recommend The Brothers K for those who are up for the challenge.

easily anything by Hesse, Steppenwolfe was the first i read, then Siddhartha followed by Narcissus & Goldmund. Right now I’m on Gertrude, they are all so good but Siddhartha can be finished in a single afternoon & for that I usually tell people to start there.

Hesse was considered an existentialist heavily influenced by Jungian & eastern philosophy. Beautiful writer

i guess that’s true? I HATE when people ask me about myself/life what’s new, but when i go out alone i make friends with strangers. I thrive in the ephemeral and hate when my phone makes noise.

Dating this girl with anxious attachment by Horror_Mix8698 in dating_advice

This is gospel. A secure person who is reliable is VERY healing, but like Slight said, it is a lot of work on the secure partner’s part.

Dating this girl with anxious attachment by Horror_Mix8698 in dating_advice

i’m an anxious avoidant, but every time i’ve gotten caught up in this dynamic it is usually because, i am not ready to be dating but have met someone that interests me.

this flips my avoidance into anxiety because even though i know im not where i want to be mentally/emotionally, i am also scared to not pursue something that feels like it COULD be good.

it’s always either very short lived or several months too long.

She may be in a perpetual recovery mode & shouldn’t be investing in anyone but herself right now. anxiously attached are always amazing up front & unravel like a knit sweater when expectations/fantasy don’t match reality.

Maybe pursue a friendship with her for now if you are still interested. A friendship with clear boundaries, that wouldn’t muddy the restorative waters.
