she’s not on this app but it feels impossible for me to have a space without her leaving an impression on it, so i’m adding her to my recs myself
we met our freshman year of college, started rooming together, and then moved into an apartment together after graduation. she has truly seen me at my absolute best and my absolute worst and she has never once made me doubt how much she continues to care about me through it all.
she is one of the smartest people i know. not only intellectually, but also in a wise “i look up to the way she interacts with the world and treats people in it” way. she is hilarious. she is fiercely caring, which is something i eternally admire. her care for me in situations where i show myself no grace and refuse to stand up for myself has taught me so much about my own worth. even if it takes me a long time to realize it.
i dread the day i am no longer just steps away from her bedroom door. but i can not wait to see all of the amazing things this life has to offer her. and i hope i get enough chances to earnestly tell her that she is an amazing thing to happen to me.

It’s such a special bond to have. Haven’t seen my best friend/roommate in Florida in almost two years now. He’s in Georgia, I’m in New York. I’d do anything to see him again and spend a week over there, We’ve been through complete hell and back together.

I met Laura at a queer event in the community and instantly had a crush on her (many such cases; having a crush on Laura is a rite of passage in our friend group). Extremely stylish emo girl with a very gentle and cunty energy to her, amazing sense of humor, carries herself with so much love and so much care. She radiates everywhere she goes.
I have a profound admiration for Laura because she’s driven as fuck, extremely resilient and strong, SUPER FUCKING SMART, and takes no bullshit. Laura is strong. Laura is really strong.
Passionate STEM baddie, based politics AF, down to anything, LOVES Minecraft, has an excellent music taste that is all-to-vast for me to fully understand, but she’s found her people for that. Also, she has like all these really cute and funny mannerisms that distinguish her a lot. I love her.
We have shared some very extremely tender moments together and kept each other sane through some of the hardest moments of our university life. She’s one of thise friends I will always be happy to see no matter how long it’s been. I feel extremely privileged to have her in my life, and if you have a Laura in your life, you should too and you better be loving her properly.

She’s has been my best friend for about 8 years and she is genuinely the most important person in my life. She is so immensely compassionate and full of love to give. She is always able to find something to love in everyone, even the most unlikely characters, and she actively chooses to see those traits in people above all else.
She’s an artist above all else. One of the queerest bitches I know, so sexy, so full of rizz. She has extremely based politics and would trust her opinion on aaaaalmost anything (we have our disagreements about food JAJAJ). She has a very complex, personal music taste that is very private and I have gotten to know very slowly over time. She’s studying architecture and tho this is one of the banes of her existence, I think she loves it. Her attention to detail in everything in life is CRAZY: she is very sensitive, observant, and really really really smart. This also means she is insanely good at everything she does. She knows a lot about a lot of things so it’s impossible to get bored talking to her. Everyone likes Aurora and she is the kind of person where if someone doesn’t like her, that’s a red flag about them. Also everyone wants her because she is so charismatic and dances so so so fucking well.
We have dated twice in the past, broken up for circumstantial factos, and currently have a bit of a very queer non-monogamous arrangement where we like to be flirty and sexy eith each other, but we have no interest in dating and we actually have been in multiple relationships since our break up. We have learned everything together and I hope to continue to be able to learn and grow next to her forever.

my mom passed away last year, and today would have been her 54th birthday
so, i grabbed ice cream and i took it to the river. my mom and i used to get ice cream and eat it by the river a lot. my mom loved ice cream. chocolate ice cream. and she loved rivers. i also love rivers. they remind me of my mom.
grieving is hard. and it’s hard every single day. but taking moments like this — to do things that my mom and i loved to do together — reminds me of how grief is just love with nowhere to go.
today i’m basking in the love that my mom had for me, the love she had for ice cream, for rivers. and i’m sitting in how much i love her. a love that feels trapped inside me. buried. most days it feels like anger and despair and regret. but today i’m focusing on the love. how lucky i was to have a mom who made loving her so easy!
happy birthday, mom. i love you immensely
