Update

Hey guys, I know it's been long...
As you've probably imagined, my absence wasn't for nothing. My friend recently came to tell me they were assaulted by their (now ex) partner, multiple times. Both of them are my friends... well their partner was my friend. For ten years. You think you know a person and then find out disguisting things they did. I've had a rough time because of it and I wanted to be there for my friend as much as I could. I was literally there when they were breaking up. My friend cried, we hugged and I cried for three days straight afterwards. But not in front of them, they needed to be comforted. I am writing this in hopes of someone resonating with this situation.

I wanted to say, for those who are going trough a bad breakup (with a partner, family member or a friend), coming from someone with a broken heart: you can always turn a page, so you never fall appart.

This goes for everyone: if you don't get an excited "Yes!" when reffering to a sexual act. Take. It. As. A. No. If your partner isn't excited about doing the nasty, it's a no. If you aren't excited for doing the nasty and the other person ignores it, that is not okay. Talk about it to someone trusted. Please. You aren't protecting anyone by staying quiet.

And for everyone else with a partner:
If the person who claims to love you hurts you purposefully, they are lying to you. Leave on the first sign of abuse, whether it is a push without remorse, a "playful" but oddly strong punch on the shoulder, "accidentaly" doing something to harm you physically without remorse, leave them.

Usually abusive relationships start with "an accident" that is played off, but if you ignore it, so much worse can happen. They don't love you, if you can, please leave them.

If you've gone trough abusive realtionships, don't feel bad for staying with someone for too long. Love is blind and stupid and it's not your fault for putting up with it, but theirs for doing it.

You are worthy of true unconditional love and respect from your partners, friends and family. And the person who truly loves you will feel remorse even when they accidentally hurt you.

That's all from me for now, you can expect a new chapter in a week or two. Thank you for being patient.

P.S.: My friend told me it was okay to share this. I decided to do so because I feel like a lot of people (specially younger folks) go through so much in relationships without even realizing it. I wanted to give you guys some guidance because I know how it feels to be lost. I know I'm getting a bit personal here, but I try to put everything I think people who feel stuck and confused might find comforting in this fanfic. It's quite hard being alone, so I try to do as much as I can to act as some sort of support through my stories.
I don't think that anyone is truly alone, though. There are people who care so much and we don't see it. We just have to open our eyes to the opportunity of being cared for, because it is out there.

I'll stop being sappy now. If you have any questions for me (regarding literally anything) feel free to ask in the comments.

As always,
Take care <3
