they don’t warn you in life about how many people take up running as a hobby in adulthood, and I think that’s spooky and people should be warned

Imagine portraying a trans woman as a cis man, gaining widespread acclaim for the role and an Oscar nomination, but siding with the biggest TERF in the public eye…that’s why cis het actors playing LGBTQ+ characters can be controversial to say the least

I have a question, I just had my second gay club experience it was really good. Other then struggling with social anxiety, and I don’t really know how to approach guys I find attractive. Any advice on how to approach gay guys at clubs for getting to know reasons, and form a potential relationship. I could use, under the unfortunate circumstances.

Just came out to my parents, and ofc they already knew. Somehow ended up being the hardest yet easiest thing I’ve ever done. I can finally exhale after almost 30 years 🏳️‍🌈

Anyone else here struggle with PTSD or CPTSD? Asking from the perspective of someone who has CPTSD along with trust issues and has always struggled with identity do to social upbringing. If anyone here has PTSD or CPTSD, how do you heal or feel better emotionally? I haven’t been great mentally do to recent economy, and I’m just fed up with negativity. There is to much of it and it’s throwing me off balance even when I do breathing exercises or affirmations. Any advice would be appreciated.

What are the chances?! The guy I was texting who said he was coming to Budapest soon but ghosted me for like 3–4 weeks, suddenly posts stories of himself actually in Budapest! 😭 I was this close to convincing myself he was just an AI influencer with too many followers and suspiciously good selfies… but no, he’s real. He’s here. In my city. And still hasn’t texted me. 💀😂

Whatever happens, you know you have his back and he has yours, mentally, physically, and emotionally. The confidence you feel when he’s beside you is beyond words. When the outer world feels harsh and confusing, he steps in and reminds you that you matter. That your existence matters. Your smile matters. Your thoughts matter. In the eyes of the world, you may be just another face, but in his eyes, you are his universe, the reason he breathes, the reason he feels joy and emotional peace. The days that once felt empty now hold meaning, simply because you get to spend them with him. The nights that were once anxious and lonely, when you hugged your pillow just to feel a hint of belonging, now end in his arms, wrapped in love and care. Years pass, seasons change, yet that smile, the one that makes you feel fulfilled, remains the same. You sit together in the courtyard, sipping evening tea, talking about the day you met. Or sometimes, you just sit in silence, admiring each other’s eyes, sharing love without words as birds sing, the breeze cools your skin, and the warmth of his breath reminds you that home isn’t a place. It’s a him.
