I hate being the “head of the household” as a married lesbian couple in this day in age. What do you mean I have to start working minimum 80 hours a week just to afford groceries, gas, my rent, plumbing etc.?! Honestly what’s the point of life if I spend 90% of it working like a dog for dogs?? Like I give tf up man…

I’ve noticed a couple of my straight females friends only really see me as their “gay bestie” or reduce me to their 2nd husband/gay husband. Like girl we are friends, why do you have to put me into a certain category and why do you only treat me a certain way because of what you label me as. Idk, it’s just a little annoying

Best/worst experiences in the modeling industry? How has it affected your body image?

I know everyone has their own preferences when it comes to dating. The first thing most of us notice is how someone looks, and then comes their personality and everything else. Sometimes I wish there was another way to meet people besides endlessly swiping on dating apps. What I don't understand is this: if you swipe right on me, I'm assuming you liked what you saw (my face, obviously 😅). So why match if you're not going to reply or even try to have a conversation? Especially when your profile says you're looking for a relationship, dating, or a genuine connection. And then there are the people whose profiles say one thing but they actually only want hookups. It honestly feels like a waste of time. Lately, swiping just feels pointless. I'm starting to wonder if I'm looking for something that isn't even there anymore. I don't really know what to do, and part of me just wants to give up on looking for someone.

i was head over heels for this guy i was talking to until he told me we had to “be discreet” so his partner didn’t find out. i really don’t see how he thought i would be agreeable to that. i told him that it would require me betraying his partner and myself. he said sorry and i told him that i was sorry for his partner and he blocked me. was he very hot? yes, but what do i look like degrading myself to second place to be with someone who can’t even respect who they’re dating like ugh. i hope what i said got to him

I had this conversation yesterday, why the LGBTQ+ community is so into drugs? Like some of them spend loads on drugs... And I just don't get it... I work in Critical Care Unit, the amount of overdose patient from our community is hugely shocking, I wonder why? Is it because of being a party person is it to fit into the community? What is that? Am I to out of the scene to be able to get it ? I was raised up to avoid drugs, I have seen the impact of them around my neighbor, so I always avoid it.

Summer nights bring about a peculiar feeling: wanderlust, cozy settings in good company, an amber flame warming your chest, eyes glimmering reflections of the stars, the mind tranquil at sea. Oh, how I wish these summer nights would last just a while longer.

Lately, all the guys I liked are people from IRL, but the thing is I am not sure if they are gay, I already misinterpreted a friends kindness, why is this so common?

I work with my ex and now we avoid each other but it hurts a ton. We work 5 days a week together and changing my schedule isn’t an option. How do I process the fact that it’s all over and they want nothing to do with me now? Or at least they act like they want nothing to do with me. Any advice is appreciated :) For context: I ended things two months ago but they left for a month and got back yesterday. I didn’t want to end the relationship but I had to even though I still love them. They weren’t communicating or working on their avoidance. They didn’t respect me or my feelings and they treated my pretty badly after love bombing me.

Really big sign you’re maturing is someone tells you and opinion and you don’t feel the need to internalize it.

I just moved to Orlando a little over a month ago and had to go no contact with my immediate family because of my queerness. (Literally had to escape the cult I grew up in) I’m with extended family that accepts and understands me but I’m still so lonely. I love that I’m able to be who I am but at the same time I hate how lonely my choice to live my life has made me. 😞

When I was 14, I read a play called “The Dragon”. It tells the story of Lancelot, who defeated a tyrannical Dragon ruling over a city. But after the Dragon is gone, an even worse tyrant (the city’s mayor) takes his place. Back then, I saw it as a story about how removing a tyrant does not automatically make people free. The real problem seemed to lie not only in the ruler, but in society itself. But now I wonder whether this idea was a form of propaganda, like: “do not try to change a dictator, because you will get something worse.” I can see where this kind of thinking leads in our world, and it makes more sense now. How do you see it?

The Old Mystery We Call “Love” Isn't it strange— in a world overflowing with faces, with voices that brush past us and names that dissolve with time— that one person can arrive and feel like they were written into our story long before we learned to read it. We meet thousands, watch countless fade into the blur, yet something in us still believes one will stay. What kindness it takes to hold that hope close, to trust the heart's compass even when it spins. But then a presence appears— steady, familiar, as if we've known their silhouette in every lifetime before this one. And suddenly the impossible feels simple, the search feels remembered, and the love we're born to find steps forward as if it has been finding us all along.
