as someone who struggles to tell if the feelings they feel for others are reciprocated, it would be nice to know for sure i was cared about. making it easier to unashamedly care in return

I can be nice to myself, sure. I can’t be obsessed with myself, or at least, it’s very affirming to have someone who sees you just as deeply as you see yourself and turn out to be obsessed with the result of the whole of you, including the parts that you can’t perceive on your own.

Oh yeah, the desire to be loved
I lower my tone, I play it cool, I'll hold on to this real me, this messy apparition of vulnerability and insecurities until I find the one someone who is worth it
But implicitly I understand that this one will not accept the real me unconditionally. I will need to persuade them with something that is not quite me, some general attractive qualities like good looks, pleasant conversation and a worthy mask. Is this deception? To reveal myself later on after I've tricked them into letting me in? All for the selfish desire to be loved and to be at one with the other. And so I play it cool

I’ve been dealing with a creative rut for a while as well. It’s easy to get stuck in a process of trying to put out work at a feverish pace, but that speed makes it difficult to catch the creative ideas that come along. i believe there’s a creative frequency with ideas on it we can all tap into, when you move too fast you can’t catch them and they turn into what i call “creative flybys”. it’s easy to feel like you’re stuck, but i encourage you to explore other interests, creative or not, and also to download the pdf of “the creative act” by Rick Rubin, it’s a book that’s really helped me. wishing you love in your journey tho. it’s tough but keep going, when you get out of this rut, what you come out with will be beyond your imagination
