my high school/early college gf is one of my best friends and will be forever. we had a wonderful friendship before we dated and after taking some time of no contact built back an even stronger platonic bond. especially since we were close during such formative years it’s been so rewarding to grow together - out of one form of connection and into so many others❣️
my other serious ex I may never speak to again before I die.

🫶Some of my online-friends I’ve known & loved for about/nearly 15 years at this point. Sure, not every friendship lasts, but that happens offline too.

🤝one of my favorite things about getting older is learning that this happens! my childhood best friend and i drifted way apart in high school and college, but over the past couple years have found that we actually have a lot in common again and have reconnected. we were always in each other’s lives but now it’s in a much deeper way. now i’m less anxious when i feel drifting from other friends — if we’re ever on the same path again, we’ll find each other. letting the ebbs and flows happen. i agree with the people who said it’s nice to reach out in small ways just to keep them in your orbit without putting a lot of pressure on ~connecting~

👫One of my best and longest running groups is me, my middle school bff/ occasional frenemy, and the guy who we both had a massive crush on in eighth grade (after one date each we decided NEVER AGAIN). I seriously don’t think there are two people who know me so well, i hope they’re forever in my life

🩹as much as you can - allow yourself to feel the pain. don’t judge yourself for however you’re feeling. keep busy and devote time to yourself but forgive if sometimes you still gotta stay in and sob. build up a beautiful life while grieving at the same time - and eventually you will realize you’re now as fully engaged with joy, pleasure, & passion as you once were with heartbreak !!!

🇵international women’s day this year was for solidarity with women in gaza, & with all palestinians. it’s not too late to start educating yourself, showing up to protests, joining orgs, looking into direct action! also would recommend lewis’ ‘abolish the family’ on a different but related note
