This is the second time you tell people I am your daughter this week. It worries me. Affection in general worries me.

I hope you are simply empathizing in your own way and not saying goodbye.

Affection worries you?

Miram · 31-35, F

@SinlessOnslaught There is often a cost

@Miram You don't owe anyone any more than you already give. If they're gonna try to charge you, that's on them.

Does it bother you when I call you mom? You're the only person other than my biological mom I do that to.

Miram · 31-35, F

@SinlessOnslaught No, it doesn't bother me.

The cost isn't like that. It can be grief or the sort. And I am tired.

@Miram I didn't think you meant a literal charge like money, I know you're talking about emotional cost. My statement still goes. You don't owe anyone any more than you already give. I know you'll disagree with this but you're truly the most patient and loving person I've ever met.
