How to Have a Love Life (from someone who actually has one)

Step 1. Set Your Standards

Because if you don’t, the universe will send you men who text “wanna hang?” at 11:52 p.m.

Know what you want, even if it’s irrational. Tall, plays piano, Catholic guilt, looks good in black. Whatever. You’re allowed.

No chemistry? No deal. A good résumé means nothing if you feel nothing. You're trying to find love, you should feel something. A spark, a shiver, or a silly smile when he texts.

He should be a bit obsessed. Not restraining order obsessed, but “sent you a poem at midnight” obsessed.

“Busy” is a myth. If he wants to, he will. If he doesn’t, he won’t. There’s no mystery.

Step 2. Prepare Yourself

Not in a “fix yourself” way. In a “become so hot and self-possessed he can’t think straight” way.

Update your social media. Post hot pics, read pretentious books, quote Sappho. Let them suffer.

Romanticise your routines. The skincare, the gym, the getting ready playlist, it’s part of the charm.

Don’t try to be chill. Be passionate, a little dramatic, slightly impossible to forget. (we hate nonchalant here.)

Have a life. Not to impress him. To survive him. Join a class, go dancing, make art. Text your friends more than you text him. You need something to come home to if it falls apart.

Step 3. How to Actually Meet Guys

Yes, unfortunately, you do have to leave the house (or at least open your DMs).

Be online strategically. The story with the books, the wine glass, the dangerous neckline? Essential.

Go places alone. Cafés, galleries, vintage bookstores. Hot people live in those.

Talk first. Say something weird. Say something dry. Say anything at all. Most guys are just relieved. He won't think you're weird, and if he does, that's useful data. You don't want someone who's scared of a girl with opinions and a personality.

Mutual friends? Ask. Being set up is underrated. Just make sure it’s not someone who still says “epic.”

Step 4. Surviving the Talking Stage

Also known as: limbo, hell, emotional roulette.

Keep texting fun. You’re not here to conduct an interview.

Match his energy, then go slightly colder. Mystery keeps the plot alive.

Don’t over-invest. He’s cute, not a life plan. Don't build an entire narrative off a playlist and three emojis.

Pull back if needed. You’re not being “too much.” You’re being someone who doesn’t beg.

Step 5. Dating 101

Congratulations. You’ve made it to the main event. Don’t panic now.

Look stunning, obviously. Even if you’re just getting coffee. Especially then.

Ask good questions. The goal is connection and psychological evaluation.

Stay unpredictable. Be kind, funny, engaging, but also allow for some silent moments. It shouldn't feel awkward.

Know when to walk away. If it’s not fun, not flirty, and not fulfilling, you can go.

Step 6. Debrief & Detox

Even CIA operatives get to talk to someone after a mission.

Tell your friends everything. Especially the ridiculous parts. Especially the unhinged texts. Your group chat is sacred.

Let them reality-check you. They love you. They see the red flags when you’re busy romanticising the beige.

Don’t skip the closure. Even if the ending was awkward or slow-fade. Name it, process it, laugh about it. Then leave it.

Step 7. If It Works Out

Not every story ends in disaster. Sometimes it actually gets good.

Stay a little delusional. You still get to romanticise it all. That’s half the fun.

Keep your identity. Don’t fold into each other like laundry. Stay weird. Keep your rituals. Be your own person with someone.

Let yourself be happy. Not suspicious. Not waiting for it to crash. Just happy. Let it feel real. You don't have to apologise for being loved. You don't have to brace for impact. allow yourself to enjoy.

Still debrief with your friends. Even in love. Especially in love. They were there before, and they’ll be there after—if it ever comes to that.

And if none of this works? Post a blurry photo in your favourite outfit, listen to Norman Fucking Rockwell, and disappear for 48 hours.

lots of love (literally) to all of you and if anyone has a question or request feel free to submit it here -> <3

staying and feeling clean and fresh⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🛁💕

HAVING GOOD SMELLING HAIR ;

having good smelling hair doesn't only boil down to the scented shampoos and conditioners you use in ur hair. odor in ur hair originates in ur scalp so by keeping a clean scalp -> your hair will smell better! if u have a dry scalp, oil your hair before washing it. oil breaks down oil. if u have an oily scalp, clarify ur hair once a week.

you can figure out what kind of scalp type you have with the quiz i'll link right here (♡) also, i find that how u wash ur hair makes SUCH a difference. i always shampoo twice and i use a bubble foamer to really emulsify my shampoo and that makes my hair feel SO much cleaner and softer so i highly recommend that.

so what i'll do, is i'll make my shampoo foam and put it onto my scalp and then use a scalp massager to REAALLLY get in there and clean my head. massaging my scalp during this time feels so nice. i massage the five different meridians on my scalp and just really enjoy this step. some other general tips include :

🫧 dont use regular perfume on ur hair bcuz the alcohol in perfume dries out ur hair, instead use a hair perfume

🫧 make sure that your washing your hair brushes every couple of weeks to manage the residual product and stop redistributing those oils back into ur hair

SMELLING GOOD ;

using glycolic acid on ur skin gets rid of odor that simply showering cannot. i wipe down with glycolic acid on my underarms once a week. another thing that helps with smelling super good is not rubbing ur perfume in! when u apply perfume onto ur wrists and u rub, ur just breaking them done and making them foggy and thats NOT hot.

dont ever rub, just let it sink into ur skin. also, applying it onto your pressure points (e.g. inner wrists, inner elbows, neck, in between ur boobs) makes all the difference bcuz when u sweat ur body releases heat from here, emitting ur perfume.

ORAL HYGEINE ;

🫧 floss every single night and tongue scraping in the morning! its a non-negotiable

🫧 brush ur teeth 2x a day

🫧 oil pulling 1-2x a week to whiten my teeth and for general oral health (i oil pull with coconut oil)

SHOWER ROUTINE ORDER ;

bar soap (if i need to i'll use an antibacterial one) -> body wash -> OUT OF THE SHOWER -> body oil -> lotion/body butter (keep in mind the body oils and butters go on while ur skin is still slightly damp) -> perfume 🛁💕

GENERAL TIPS AND CHARTS ;

🫧 i use exfoliation gloves/african net sponge every single day, it keeps my skin super duper soft and my skin isnt highly sensitive so i can take it.

🫧 make sure that you use scents that layer well together and blend nicely. dont use a pineapple scented body wash and use a chocolate scented body butter! then you're gonna smell a mess.

🫧 dont use an antibacterial bar soap every single day because its superrr drying for your skin.

the art of self seduction.ೃ࿔*:･🐈‍⬛🎀

“pampering my body with the best body nectars and butters, wearing my prettiest lingerie for my eyes only and taking cute pics, i seduce myself 🐈‍⬛🎀” this is something i tweeted one evening after putting on my body nectars and my pretty victorias secret babydoll lingerie and its the inspiration for today's post, the art of self seduction...💬🎀

WHAT IS SEDUCTION? ;

self seduction is having a luxurious and intimate relationship with yourself. knowing yourself, knowing what you like and don't like, treating yourself like the love of your life. self seduction is falling in love with yourself 🪞💕 self seduction is all about intention and routine. seduction itself is effortless, but seduction is the fruit of SELF seduction.

SELF SEDUCTION RITUALS ;

i pamper my body with the best body nectars and butters i have. i love to wear perfume oils also because they last longer. my favorite combo EVER is the vanilla cashmere whipped oil butter from eos, paired with my chocolate musk eau de parfum. i smell like a little droplet of vanilla and caramel drizzle, just utterly delicious.

another self seduction ritual that i do is mirror work. i often look at myself in the mirror and tell myself sweet things... seducing myself with every glance and every word. while i get ready i whisper to myself about how gorgeous and lovely i am, how i literally invented sex appeal, about how im the embodiment of the word perfection. its good to tell yourself these things.

❤︎ taking photos is another one of my self seduction rituals. i love to photograph myself bcuz i love every single inch of my perfection. i wear my prettiest pieces and do my makeup real nice and i just take pictures and fawn over them. its such an intimate thing because those photos are for me and that makes it that much more special.

❤︎ shopping is also a self seduction ritual for me! i love spoiling myself with cute panties and bras, sweet perfumes etc etc. whatever makes me feel pretty and princessy i'll buy for myself. it really makes such a huge shift in ur confidence when u smell good and have cute lingerie. i really love the way black lace looks on me, soft pinks, creams and silk also feels and looks really nice against my skin.

❤︎ another thing i do is when i listen to love songs i always imagine them being written FOR me. its a GREAT way to manifest and also it reminds me how worthy i am of tenderness, of poetry, of being cherished. like im my own muse.

self seduction is all about doing things that make you feel good. feel good in your body, in ur mind, in yourself. identify what makes you feel good and give it to yourself. its about getting to know yourself essentially. and getting to know yourself will make ur confidence increase, you'll be happier, its just so so good for u to know you.

WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT ;

this is important because this is how u become ur own fantasy, this is how u fall in LOVE with yourself. you'll glow differently and ur energy will glow differently too. self seduction is about learning how to romance yourself and knowing yourself and ur body. its also incredibly grounding. it brings u back into ur body, confidence and beauty.

its important because u deserve to be adorned and adored, and u dont have to wait on someone else to do it for you because u should be doing it for yourself. when u treat urself like the most beautiful thing in the world and think ur the most beautiful thing in the world, the world has no choice but to prove. you. right. remember, you're the prize. the fantasy. the DREAMIEST doll ever

Shoujo Girls Guide: Risa Koizumi

Had to pause the hiatus for a minute because Lovely Complex is a BANGER!! (After this post, hiatus will be resumed lol)

Embrace your height

Risa is around 5’7, and throughout the show it is her one of her main internal conflicts. But instead of seeing height as a appearance issue, whether tall or short, I think part of growth is learning to embrace your height!

Be your most authentic self

Share what you love, be original, and don’t be afraid to show the world who you truly are! Risa never is, so why shouldn’t you be?

Never give up!!

No matter how many times Risa said she was giving up on Otani, she never really did. Put that same energy into your life, even if it’s not about your romantic interest! Never give up, you can do it!!

Talk to your crush if you have one

Risa and Otani are super close throughout most of the show, even with all of the romantic conflict that occurs. They are the comedy duo after all! Don’t be afraid to talk to your crush and share what you like with them (Risa and Otani with Umibozu lol🤟🏻)

Hobbies!

Although it’s not shown very often, Risa does like to play video games as a hobby. She also likes to do passion projects (aka Club maity)

Try out different hairstyles

Unlike most other Shoujo protagonists, Risa has TONS of different hairstyles! So try out some new hairstyles and see what you like! It’s really fun getting to wear different hairstyles to work, school, or just going out!

random things i do as a master manifestor + a personal success story abt my family.

self concept:

whenever a character calls another character pretty when I'm watching tv I act like they were the one complimenting me lmao (not in a jealously way of course It's just fun to do)

I always sigh and brag to myself how perfect I am

whenever someone is the slightest bit rude to me I immediately manifest they respect me. like I'll say to myself "yeah you're never making that mistake again. you regret this so bad" and I visualise myself saying that in their ear

when I have a crush on someone I immediately act like they like me. i hardly affirm but when I do I say things like "omg its so embarrassing how sp likes me I cant even look at them"

I wake up saying "today will be such a good day" every morning I affirm "everyday I get better at manifesting"

whenever something goes the slightest bit wrong I automatically revise. i don't even have to consciously manifest it. just a whisper pops in my mind "Revise it" (istg I sound cray but there is literally just someone -me- ordering other me around in a very eerie way lmao) and then I just say "that never happened"

wavering:

I immediately turn on music and sit on my bed saturating. then I refer to my list of things I've manifested (I've had it since 2023 the list is so long) and I laugh to myself and I'm like wow I'm so powerful. I also read the quran and vaunt about "why the law exists in Islam" (I have a automatic monologue to explain that to Muslim irl's who don't believe in manifesting)

"failing"

I let myself cry and then I do box breathing, then I revise the "failure" and do it again. I also remind myself I didn't fail I just stopped persisting.

appearance changes:

when I want to do so, I go to chatgpt (yes sue me) and say

"how would someone with |insert desire| act" and then chatgpt would be like "omg girl you would act like this queen!" (I made it so she talks to me like a delusional bsf lol)

then I act like it all day, like when I manifested a green eye I kept winking my left eye and being like "agh I forgot how green my eye was"

money:

when I manifested a rich family, I immediately made a pinterest board of "rich aesthetic" and acted like it was my camera roll "ugh I remember when I flexed like 4 bands on my story" "wow lol my dad is so rich" and then just like that I woke up with a significantly better wardrobe with all the purses I saved in my board and my parents were "classy" just like how I imagined them

(in my old reality from like 2 years ago my dad was a manchild who would always ALWAYS yell at my mom, he was poor and would take out his bad financial choices on us, he made me work for his failing business at 14 years old and never paid me like he said he would. and we would move countries all the time and OBVIOUSLY that's expensive which is why we were poor. it got so bad to the point where once we had to go back to America and live at my grandmas house. I had enough so I scripted my dream life and said "I'm back in dubai in a mansion I don't give a shit about the 3d anymore. I kind of acted like coraline when manifesting different parents. I acte like my desired parents were my REAL ones. OH- and btw he was short. this is your sign to never get with a short man. But I love my REAL dad now. He's tall and is really nice to me, he also is always wearing a random black suit and is very nice to my mom)

thank u for readinggg this was kind of a random post but for anyone who wanted to manifest certain things on here or act like me in terms of manifesting this post is for you, love you all MWAH
