i don’t know whats wrong with me but it’s alot

you took my heart and gave it a home

why am i only motivated to sort my life out at 3am

I personally wanna see less 'you are not a burden/it's not work to love you' and more 'you are worth the work it takes to love you.' I KNOW I'm a burden sometimes. that isn't such a terrible thing! humans are strong. we can carry burdens. and it is work for me to be there for my friends, but it's work I'm willing to do.

we need to acknowledge this because pretending love isn't work will never make people like me feel less guilty for accepting love. we need to talk about it so people don't feel bad for having boundaries and not always being up to do the work. we need to accept it so we can properly appreciate what others do for us and what we're doing for them.

yes it does take work to love you. but guess what? you still deserve love, and you deserve people who are willing to do the work to love you. it doesn't make you bad. all love take work. and everyone is worth it.

That line from Wuthering Heights, "You say I killed you — Haunt me, then," is such raw fucking emotion I just *slams head into wall*

I’m too romantic and unrealistic

call me when your heart remembers.
