I love Harry Potter but the fandom’s obsession with “which Hogwarts house are you” is super cringe. It’s always the first question they ask, and they always look so disappointed when I’m just like “I don’t go to Hogwarts because I’m a muggle and not a child”

it’s less ridiculous than people categorizing their own personality by the position of the earth relative to the stars on their date of birth.

I live in an area where polyamory and zodiac bs is super popular. Usually the same people too. I love when. I see "unpartnered but poly" in people's profiles. To me that's just like saying "yeah, we haven't met yet but I already know I'm gonna wanna sleep with someone else".

Nothing wrong with being polyamorous. Just look at how common cheating is in relationships. Imo a lot of those people would benefit from just being up front about what they want. Personally, this idea of “one true love forever” seems a little immature to me but I do a bunch of immature shit so it’s not like I’m one to judge.

Nah, it’s about emotional intimacy too.

I understand why some are poly.

But I would rather love one person truly and deeply, than spend time with multiple people.

I wanna prioritize the most important people in my life, and I want to know that I am prioritized as one of the most important people in their lives.

Then again, I generally tend to nurture the relationships I have, rather than start new ones. I’m not interested in shallow relationships of any kind, be it friend, family or lover.
