#How do I talk to people

what im thinking: when i see you, i feel like i'm watching a sparkler on the 4th of july. you burn so unapologetically, tossing your sparks with ease around you. but perhaps you are more like the light from the stars, because even though we are all made of repurposed star dust, your eyes shine of the heavens, and your freckles could easily be mistaken for twinkling suns, dancing across the nebula of your complexion.

what i say: wow you look great today

yesterday a new colleague was introduced at work and she was so cute i was starting to feel like a creep for staring too long. but the worst part was is that i only said "hi" and that was it😭 we were in the same room for like five minutes. come on brain. why can't you start a conversation. it was fucking awkward. i don't even know if we've got the same schedule but next time i see her i should make small talk or smth :(( where did my social skills go that was embarrassing

So, random ramble about me:

I am like...weirdly possessive of my interests. I don't think that's the right word, but it's like this: I don't tell people what I'm in to. Never have.

As a kid, my parents had to fight tooth and nail for me to tell them what I liked. And it was wild, because I've always been the way I am now; I get into something and I just shove that sucker down my throat and let it absolutely consume me from the inside out but I don't tell anybody.

It's like I don't want people to know what I like. People ask what my favorite movie is? 'oh haha it's too hard to choose'. I almost always have an answer, I'm just too afraid to say it. And for what??? No idea. I've literally never been shamed or teased for my interests.

The idea of somebody finding out whatever I'm obsessing over at the time is downright terrifying and I don't know why.

Only recently have I started kind of admitting to obsessing over things, and that's just with some things, and literally just to my sister, and only with stuff she's interested in too.

Even on here I'm only kind of open about stuff because y'all don't actually know me, and I'm reminding myself constantly that my interests are not some secret and it's okay to admit to liking stuff.

I don't know what the point of this ramble is. I guess I'm just asking if any of y'all do this too, or if y'all are normal. Or if any of you brain pickers out there can be like "ah yes that's because of this normal thing and there's actually a lot of people who do this too"

It annoys me. I'm not going to get venty in this but it's like...I wish it were easier for me to be like 'hey look at this thing I enjoy' because I think that might be how you make flesh friends and I think that would be nice.

Anyway, carry on. If you relate to this, you're not alone friend. If you're baffled by this, you're not alone either; I can not figure it out.

[totallynotasockgremlin]

Stuck in a constant state of "oversharing so people understand me" and "panicking that I've said to much and now they think I'm weird and don't like me"

im a little awkward here but uhh hi? first official post so ig i should introduce myself

i mainly go by moon but coffee/ink is alright too, my pronouns are they/it, theres not much to know about me but im an artist and partial writer except i dont really write much anymore. some of my artworks of my sona are below, ill be posting some more often but timing depends on how much motivation i have and if i hyperfixate on a new/old fandom. i honestly dont really know what else to talk abt because im awkward as hell and dont really know how introductions work so please ask if you want to know something abt me- thats it for now 🧍

in the hour or so it took me to draw this op turned reblogs off

EDIT: reblogs are STAYING OFF. op was right and correct and i have never regretted making a post as much as this one. if you want to reblog my art you can reblog something else from my blog. or commission me, lord knows i deserve financial compensation for the nightmare this post has put me through

can't believe we're all adults being forced into the club penguin level of censorship in 2024

can we stop pretending like it’s so super easy for trans men to pass. “oh just put on a baggy shirt and cut your hair-“ it literally doesn’t work like that and I refuse to believe you actually think it’s that easy

first day of school went well but like im just so overwhelmed at how many cute hot people there are there like it was genuinely terrifying seeing cute trans people irl. i saw a guy who graduated like 3 years ago just briefly who ive had a crush on for years and i literally felt like throwing up

[theregularmatt]
