It’s not about personality it’s about, like, expectations. It’s not that I think most “girlfriends” I know act like property, it’s that they feel like they’re treated like it
Like when somebody is introduced as Your Friend’s Girlfriend there’s like. A connotation to it. The title kind of strips them of independence. You know them only in relation to this friend, and your relationship to them will always be second to their relationship to their partner. This is initially true of Your Friend’s Friend, but I find that effect is… much weaker
It’s got a kind of inflexibility to it
normally people here would introduce the girl by her name first and then elaborate if she’s in a relationship
I hit a trashcan with one of my side mirrors
well
IM THE BEST DRIVER
litten.
Kitten…
I’m trying. My best
500 points!
im ok with like, saying things that don’t Directly correlate to “ownership” and also a few other things
but GOD i hate the idea of being controlled in any other way than a fantasy, a pretend way
my ability to be autonomous is one of the things i value the most. it can be fun silly time to pretend i’m not but as soon as you get anywhere near to it being real i am fucking horrified
this is also one of the reasons i don’t want marriage even if it’s not a ritual; legally, if you’re married your finances are “merged” (as my dad puuts it but iirc its basically just “you can use each other’s money and have same bank account n shit”) and money is one of the Key Things You Need to be autonomous. I fucking hate this concept and i do NOT want to be linked to anyone in such a way because GOD i would fucking hate that
try harder
i think if i get a physical disability that requires me to live with someone (idr what exactly the term for this is but you get the idea) i would be fucking ruined for a long time
It’s not something I noticed very much at all before now. Like it’s not something I ever… felt strongly when imagining the concept of a relationship, nor when observing others’ relationships. But it’s something I feel strongly now
(“Context-dependent ‘persona’ moment”: this is the kind of thing I much appreciate being able to talk about and work out without the presence of the person it’s relevant to!)
i want a dangerous woman like makima to treat me in a possessive way and to remove any autonomy i have
oaky someone posted something i can agree with
i want a strawberry cake but thats good too
m hungry and i can barely move
