Your left hand,

exploring my fingers one by one—

maybe this is love

Machi Tawara, from Salad Anniversary

By Old先

I miss your lips the most. I miss them kissing every inch. Making goosebumps rise as you softly brush my skin with yours, tracing the most sensitive parts. I miss the warmth. I miss your stupid restless legs at night. I miss your laugh and the way you told stories. I’m going insane

Today, a relationship that lasted for almost 6 years is going to be over.

I’m simply tired of lying to myself, of pretending I’m someone I know I’m not, of projecting what I see at home to pretend I feel it.

But now the pressure is just too hard and I feel caged and suffocated; I cant deal with it anymore.

Because I’m an aromantic and I’ve been trying to believe my whole life I was like everyone else, but I’ve finally accepted myself as I am and embraced the fact that my feelings for him never existed.

So today, I’ll break free.

@spanish speakers te amo feels weird to say??????

TE AMO! IS TOO! INTIMATE!! maybe if you say it quickly and in a jokey way its ok but in a serious talk??? it feels too much!!!!!!!

“i love you” is NOTHING compared to te amo. i love you feels like a kiss on the check and te amo feels like fucking marriage. 

#I have like a whole thing on saying te amo to anyone

YEA. i had a relationship with someone and she dropped the “te amo” super quicky and i was like…………”thats ok, thank you, but im gonna be honest w you….i’m not saying te amo until i really feel it” thats how serious it is. 

te amo IS very serious, very deep, very intimate. when you want to tell someone that you love them without it being massive, the term you want is te quiero

cant believe no one had contributed this

Accuarte AF.

“Te quiero” is the best alternative so we all do not succumb into a “te amo” anxiety.

Since we’re including other languages, any tips for Japanese learners?

So idk if you can read hiragana so I’ll just use English letters. There are 4 ways to say you care about somebody in Japanese with increasing degrees of intimacy. Suki is like “I like sushi” type loose feeling. Also used for crushes or “I’d like to ask that person out.” Daisuki is literally “like a lot” and is used for “I love sushi” or “I really like this person” but tends to get translated as “I love you” which is pretty correct. Couples use it for each other

Next up is aishiteru and that’s. Hoo. Boy howdy. That’s te amo levels of intimate. You say that like before you propose, when you’re married, etc. It’s more like “I’m in love with you” and it’s very special. You won’t ever hear this used outside of very private moments between irl couples. I haven’t even seen it used in fiction honestly. And then there’s the big dog

The K word as my wife and I call it. He’s half Japanese and he has never said this to me despite us being literally married and we started dating my senior year of hs which was six and a half years ago. I’ve used this with him MAYBE thrice IF that often. I’ve never seen or heard it used literally ever is how special and intimate this phrase is. Not to totally and completely undersell this but it’s like a “once in a lifetime, the only person who could ever hold my heart” kind of intimate expression of love. It’s whispered on your deathbed to your lover of 65 years special. It’s koishiteru and you DO NOT use that word lightly if ever. It ties your soul directly to someone else’s with just a few sounds

But those are the tiers in Japanese. Go forth my friend and wield your newfound knowledge wisely

Im realizing how limited english is with only one word to cover all of that. No wonder its such an awkward language for translations!

all i want is tattoos and to be hot as fuck

surprise kisses, french kisses, open mouth kisses, neck kisses, hand kisses, cheek kisses, small kisses, butterfly kisses, long kisses, first kisses, noisy kisses, eskimo kisses, shy kisses, spiderman kisses, slow kisses, forehead kisses, chin kisses, shoulder kisses, stomach kisses, your kisses
