guerrillamamamedicine:

i need to go out. and eat a meal.

i am just getting tired of people critiquing black women, not in spite of their popularity, but because of it.

i know i take it too personally, because i seem to repeatedly find myself in situations where my popularity is taken as a reason to hyperbolically…

When the guy you’re sort of seeing tells you that he’s out to dinner but you can wait for him at his place and then he’s still not home over 4 hours later, is that long enough to worry? Because I keep going back and forth now between assuming he’s fine and trying to get to sleep and assuming he’s dead, in the hospital, or in jail. What the fuck am I supposed to do?????

It’s a little weird that I keep coming up as a match for myself on OkC now that I have a “couple” profile (though we aren’t actually a couple) and a single one. But also kinda cool like, hey, this actually works and look how cute I am in that pic!

Rational, mature, wise side of me: This was great! It taught you to push your boundaries and open up and let somebody care about you a little bit.

The rest of me: This was terrible; you really should’ve ended it months ago.

The former is maybe 5 minutes of any given day. The latter has spent the last two hours crying and wondering if Target has When Harry Met Sally.

curveappeal:

Second submission.

Today, I felt brave enough to get on the other side of a studio camera, and IN A CROP TOP. With a bunch of body positivity messages, and good stuff.

All this body positivity stuff is new to me. I have had bulimia/ednos since i was fourteen years old. I have always felt fat and unattractive in my skin.

I am begining to realize beauty comes in all forms, shapes, sizes and colours. I am in recovery for my eating disorder and feeling stronger and healthier every. single. day.

On the verge of a nervous breakdown, no clue where my IRL friends are, I turn to the internet

(… more to unload than anything else, I suppose…)

I am in love. And I hate it. Because I don’t know how to deal with emotions and normal people feelings and life, I guess. And because this was supposed to be a casual thing but of course it isn’t anymore, but it also isn’t a *thing* thing and neither of us want it to be (I think? I don’t even know anymore…) and so it’s just terrible and weird and getting kind of awkward and… yeah.

I haven’t slept with anybody else since the year started — a fact so shocking to a friend of mine, she exclaimed “what?! SALLY!!!” and made us stop the conversation to note how big a deal this was — but he has had more sex in this past week than any other week in his life. Which I’d normally be okay with except 1) we don’t talk about that kind of stuff (which is foreign to me and instantly makes things more awkward and a bigger deal) and 2) I have had sex exactly ONE time in this past week b/c I’m only sleeping with him. I am not okay with these things.

And it’s odd to me because I am realizing that the night I told him I’m in love with him was also the night we went out with somebody and I told a story about recently talking to a dude who wanted to date me and who I wanted to date at some point but was no longer interested in… And I can’t help but think that maybe he thought that meant I was seeing a shit-ton of other people and needed to do the same? Or maybe he’s going on dating overdrive to not spend time with me b/c I am in love with him? Or neither? Or both? Or is it because he’s been depressed? Or is it because he’s in love with me too? Or is it because he’s not? Or is it b/c I terrified him by freaking the fuck out and sobbing and blurting out that I’m in love with him and proceeding to have a full-blown anxiety attack? Or whatthefuckiamgoingcrazythisisexactlywhyihatethisshit

And you know what, all I wanted tonight was to get laid. I wanted a night of mostly meaningless sex with somebody who wasn’t him, and I couldn’t manage that. And THEN when I realized that wasn’t happening, all I wanted was to watch When Harry Met Sally until I cried and/or fell asleep but, of course! (OF COURSE!) my copy doesn’t work anymore — for some reason I can’t understand since it doesn’t look scratched and I watched it just fine a few weeks ago and it’s been sitting in the case ever since, right here on my nightstand, not bothered by anything.

And now all I want is to know what the fuck to do with my life and how to navigate what has now become way more strange and complicated than I ever intended or wanted.

But that’s not possible. So where does that leave me?

“It’s not that Chris Brown is categorically unforgivable. It’s more that he’s no longer an acceptable vehicle for corporations to use to sell products to young adults. On a human level, I’m more than willing to eventually forgive Chris Brown, once he seems genuinely remorseful and changed (which, at this point, he definitely does not). But there’s no obligation to continue supporting him as a pop star. Chris Brown would not exist without millions of dollars of production and marketing and styling and whatever else. He’s not some troubled genius that exists on his own, creating pop music in a corner. He’s just a handsome and fit guy who can dance and sing pretty well. There are plenty of other people who are more than capable of filling that role and who haven’t beat a woman into a state of unconsciousness. Why not give one of them a chance to be rich and famous instead?”
