Do I though?

why is it so embarrassing to admit you might like someone? or want a relationship so badly one minute and then regret it in the next? like just thinking about the commitment is so scary i like knowing there’s an end point bc the idea that i would have to keep up with it forever is so daunting. but at the same time i wanna experience that devotion and love but at the same time i don’t?? what’s up with that emotions are so confusing

And old friend had an interesting agreement with her boyfriend. They committed to each other for a year, then evaluated and decided whether to commit for another year. Kind of a middle way between commitment and freedom to leave.

@newdawnnewday I agree. They were ahead of their time in many ways. It's probably not for everyone and I don't even know if it's for me, but it is something worth considering at the very least.

@NerdyPotato definitely something to keep in mind! i never heard of an agreement like that so thanks for letting me know and opening the horizons lmao

@newdawnnewday you're welcome. I hope it helps you in future relationships.

I won't ever commit for the simple reason that I don't have patience for people. I barely have enough patience for myself let alone someone else who doesn't know what the hell they want from me I rather just have friends but nothing too serious at all

@MURD3RM0NK3Y right? i get these moments of clarity sometimes like wtf am i even doing thinking of dragging someone into my mess like i barely know who i am and can love myself let alone devote myself to another person. i’m starting to think i want it for the wrong and selfish reasons like attention or feeling wanted which is never a good thing to start out any connection

@newdawnnewday I think it's supposed to go something like taking care of yourself first and then finding someone who has the same goals as you/or wants the same things out of life as you do. But I really don't have a clue honestly I just kinda figuring it out as I go

newdawnnewday · 22-25, F

@MURD3RM0NK3Y haha yeah that sounds about right. that’s kinda just life—figuring it out as we go and hoping we are making the right choices

Very conflicting to say the least. In any case, it's always good to stop and analyze what exactly you might get yourself into

@newdawnnewday music is definitely one of my favs. Also going on walks

newdawnnewday · 22-25, F

@xRedx aw i wish i could go on walks more often. college and homework has left me trapped in my room at all hours of the day

True. Emotions are as slippery as a fish.

Keep it light. Enjoy yourself.

It sounds as though your innate desire to have a special companion, and your fear of committing are fighting it out.

What are you going to do?
