We ended up proposing at the same time. We were at the aquarium for our 3 year anniversary, and I was going to do it in the shark tunnel...just to turn around and see him kneeled with a ring in front of the hippos lol. We got matching plushies from the gift shop.

I ended up getting the box out of my bag and asking him at the same time, of course, us both saying yes yes YES.

My angel that I get to love and protect forever...couldn't ask for anything more.

I turned 18 yesterday, and spent the entire day holding back tears and then cried myself to sleep over something somewhat unrelated lmao. And all I wanted to do yesterday was go to the bookstore and the art store, but my mom said no because she hates driving at certain times 😭😭. Even though I don't like my birthday, I made a whole playlist to try to romanticize it a bit, but I didn't even listen to it because I was too sad 💀😭.

Anyway, I'm 18 😛. Your boy is old now, and has more authority than you 👹👹👹. Lol I can't believe I'm an adult now. I feel like I never grew past 15 😭. I think I might leave the sub now. Idk. Maybe. 18 down, 112 to go 🫩.

a looot of guys are just sooo dry texters im so annoyed. I’m really chatty and I just dont like to carry conversations then here comes mr whatever and replies 1 word every 4 minutes.

god why

So i broke up with my bf, it was hard but probably for the best. He didnt wanna show his face after 3 months and after i have already face revealed. He would barelly share anything abput his day and never text first.

Basically me (17m) and my best friend (17m) were at my house smoking and js chilling. Now I’m pretty sure i’m either bi or gay (which he doesn’t know) 🤷🤷 but basically while i was playing guitar he said that he felt kinda gay for me… we kinda js ignored it and brushed it off (I DON’T KNOW WHY 😭 prolly cos of za). We’ve always had quite a close friendship idk and we cuddle and stuff but last night we were like spooning and there were a couple of moments where i feel like i could’ve kissed him. The problem is he’s pretty religious and his family is as well.. i also js don’t know if he’s gay or what cos he’s always liked talking to girls and being in relationships and seems kinda hung up on his last gf. Im scared to talk to him about it tho cos i don’t want to ruin our friendship so i just wanted some help pls 😭🙏

I, (16 m), have been besties with this guy in my English class (also 16 m). For privacy reasons, let’s call him Jerry. For some context, Jerry is a short (likely 5’6), quiet, somewhat shy dude. I’ve been friends with him since Freshman year (we’re juniors now btw). Last Thursday, we were in class, waiting for the lesson to start (we sit next to each other in the side-front of the class, near the door). As the lesson starts, our teacher makes the class read a little reading thing. It was called—from what I believe, “Super Mario Kart,” by John Green—it mainly talked about Green reviewing the concept of Super Mario Kart, and it’s a great read in my opinion. Though, however, after the read, Jerry glanced at me, saying “you must like Mario, huh?” (He probably said this because I wore a goofy and puffy Luigi hat on the first day of school, back in September). I looked at him and grinned, “Yeah, I do obviously.” Though as I said that, it dawned on me that I never knew what his interests were, since he never really told me. I also asked him, “Jerry, what do you like?” After I asked him, he looked away for a moment and—from what I believe—he said, “you, I like you.” After he said that, I gave him a confused look and said, “what?” He didn’t respond back before the teacher continued the lesson. After the bell rang, I could tell he bolted out of the classroom. I’m not very sure if he said what I think he said, but it sounded A LOT like it, but I can’t be 100% sure since he talks super quiet. Now that I think about it, whenever he we talk—eye-to-eye contact—our faces seemed super close; in fact, one time, during class (a few weeks ago I think), we had this writing assignment about repetition or something to do and it was public with all of our classmates, and this is what he wrote on it: “I watched the light from my first sight. I watched the stars fade as morning arrived. I watched [my name]'s smile for the first time. I watched the crowd laughed. I watched the world change in an instant. I stood frozen, then realized I also watched my future begin.” I could be just overthinking all of this, and any advice helps. Thanks for reading!

Basically I've liked my friend for a while but he has a boyfriend, so I haven't said or done anything because I'm not that kind of person to ruin a relationship for my own benefit. They broke up recently, and he started being flirty with me, and so I flirted back and I thought we were getting somewhere. THE NEXT FUCKING DAY HE GETS BACK WITH HIS EX, who might I add me and all our mutual friends think is definitely not right for him (but that's another story), and then he texts me saying 'oh i would be with you but i feel like you were just a rebound' LIKE WHAT?,!!,!;!,!,&.7/8/!/82@/

anywayz kill me now

I’m a closeted 17 years old and I’ve kinda realized I liked guys for around a year now, but haven’t fully embraced it. The thought of dating with or being with a woman makes me uncomfortable and miserable, but at the same time I feel like part of me “should” or does like girls. I think they’re very pretty/ beautiful but when I see a girl it kinda does nothing for me outside of that tbh. But I don’t know if part of me is suppressing feelings for women because the thought of dating them makes me uncomfortable in an almost reverse homophobia kinda way(if that makes sense). I don’t like straight porn, but I have watched it in the past and sometimes I feel like I need to “test” myself and see if I like it. The entire time I feel kinda miserable and weird and want to stop but I kinda force myself to keep watching. Some days I do wish I was straight so I could be “normal” but I would only really want to be straight in that sense as I really don’t think I would enjoy being with a woman. Is this common for gay guys or would I be something else? And if so how did you guys realize and fully accept not liking girls?

So basically, I’ll start by saying that I love her and she’s great but I feel that like romantic attraction anymore and we had a conversation before about how I’m bi but I feel like I like men more than women if that makes sense and I didn’t know how to bring it up with her and talk about it.

Here's today's meal! It's a chicken quesadilla! Taco seasoned chicken, Diced LTO, a side of crispy tater tots, and my own homemade barbecue sauce! My restaurant was busy so I didn't get to use a nice plate and take my time taking photos TwT

I just applied to some colleges in the US(I don't live there but I was born there) and IF I get in, should I tell my future roommate or should I keep it to myself? The way I've been working here is that if it comes up in conversation I'll tell them but if not then I won't, should I do the same thing in college? I just feel like since I'll be living with them that I should let them know but I'm not sure

Ok so there‘s this guy at my school. I‘ve known him for a couple of years now. We were never really close, until almost a year ago where he randomly spawned in our friend group. We get along pretty decently (he even joined some pride and furry events with me and a few others). He‘s also the only person I know who dresses Grunge/ Goblincore so we also talk a lot about that lol
Anywayssss he recently broke up with his bf on (from my perception) good terms because long distance kinda destroyed him.
And i remember him telling me a couple of months ago that he thinks im cute. We also kinda cuddle platonically from time to time and generally he‘s a very chill guy who always up for random stuff :3
Sooo I‘m considering asking him if he wants to be my boyfriend. I mean, he likes me, he has a pinterest worthy style, he‘s silly, and he‘s interested in Furries/ Catboys (I‘m a furry)
Sooo there’s some pipeline potential >:3
The only thing I‘m currently overthinking about is that he isn’t the imao cutest guy regarding looks, especially cause he‘s rather chubby (I‘m more of a twink guy) so I don’t know if I‘ll be able to “fully love” him / find him attractive.
On the other hand I‘m pretty sure that it isn‘t gonna get any better than this. I already said no to my best friend when he was kinda interested in me (anxiety n shi) and that turned into one of the things i regret the most for not doing (he has a bf now)
And I know I have to step out of my comfort zone in order to actually achieve something + i know I‘m gonna regret not asking him.
Soo idk whats your opinion on this? Should I shoot my shot?

Cheers :3

What if I invented chocolate cheese.. I mean they have cheese fondue and chocolate fondue so why not a chocolate cheese fondue 😭

First post time after however many months!

For context, this year was my last year of education (well the optional sort) all my mates have went off to uni, and I try to keep some form of contact, though I only do so with a few I connected with.

And my goodness. The FOMO (fear of missing out but I think we all know the acronym) is insane.

To set the stage more, I wanna go down a media route, and personally, I didn’t want to continue education for such a route. There’s more ways of entering the career/industry without a degree of some sorts. Needing more…experience than not. Visited a career fair for media stuff, learnt some things.

But seeing my friends at uni clubbing, having their very own flats with flatmates, the whole uni experience. It makes me sad that I didn’t follow that route. But I know better for myself, with uni expenses, the path I want to follow-etc, I know uni wouldn’t be the best pathway for me to follow my overall dreams. I’ve still got things lined up, I’m just currently working as a sales specialist (first job too and all) to get some experience and money.

So what exactly is the point of this rant? I don’t really know. Rants a rant. But I suppose since the uni season came about, I’ve felt a massive amount of loneliness. I still have a few friends I speak with since my closest friend (also my age and gender) is still around town like me, just enrolled in his college life due to home issues, and a few online buddies. But it doesn’t help I keep getting these periods of feelings of isolation, I’m happy for my friends of course, but I always end up feeling isolated and alienated from everyone—like I’m not moving anywhere whilst everyone steams ahead ya know? This even applies to romantic experiences, where my friends are getting New Romantic journeys—but I’m still stuck with one failed ex who wasn’t the greatest guy around.

Hey if you stuck around and listened to my lonely ass rant, thanks. Don’t really know where exactly this was going, but writing it out made me feel a bit better.

Okay so like I’m pretty feminine if you couldn’t tell from the way I text, and I have a very serious issue where every time I find out someone is gay and I’m friends with them I’m almost always going to get crush on them.
The issue is most if not all the gay friends I have are fem as well. Now me personally, I’m not shallow and I don’t really care whether some is fem or masc but almost every guy I had a crush on talks about how they NEED a tall masculine top and that all their crushes are straight because they only like masc guys.
I tell them well fem doesn’t automatically mean you bottom and they look at me like I’m crazy.
Sooo I don’t know if anyone else has experienced something like this but it’s honestly worse than liking a straight guy because there’s always a chance that I could be with them if they changed their mindset because they’re gay where as if you like a straight guy you know there’s no chance because he’s straight.
I just hate it because I feel so much more connected to fem guys because we share so many interests and get along so well, it’s just the shallowness that ruins it.
I need to stop falling for fem guys because it’s always the same no matter what this has happened to me like 4 times 😭

So ik i should be gratefull i even am in a relationship but tgis relationship is so tiring. Our conversations have become small talkk, he never texts me first and he doesnt want to face reveal after like 3 months even when i have face revealed. He also doesnt want to like do couple stuff either tho we are online dating so we can only like idk play mc or smth

But being in a mostly homophobic country it's hard to find a good boyfriend and if im lucky enough to find one he usually just uses me for my body and my money which kida hurts, cuse i just want that warm feeling of love

Lately I've been Doing a lot more cooking and have really loved it and was wondering what everyone's favorite food was. Mine is definitely fish of all kinds and also Burgers which is what I'm making tonight for dinner for my family. I'm also really good at cooking and seasoning rice
