It's no fun. It even hurts
Situational Celibacy.
As much as I need and want intimacy, I'm iust not a hook up person. My personal neurodivergence ways mean I need familiarity, a feeling of safety, security, and a huge sense of connection and belonging n order to navigate my sensory and emotional sensitivities. It takes time for me to open up and be able to talk about my wants and stuff
And I'm a romantic fool. have demisexua tendencies that make a big part of my desires also about being with guy in the life and partnership togetherness sense.
It makes for a deeply frustrating, even aching Celibacy because I can't find what I need/want
Andl shouldn't have to (and nor could I change who lam simply because the world doesn't meet
me as Iam.

Despite rudely awakening at 5 am with migraine, which went off but now returns, I have had a good day. Put up shelves. Put stuff on shelves. Learned some really useful tools on the illustration software I use, and made another card sale.

The Only Way

And all the saints could pray for me
But it would make no difference
For.it I breathe
And if my heart beats
I am sad, I am alone
Alive but unliving

And whilst I cannot know happy
And not have love
And not be truly alive
There is at least a way
To no longer know pain
The only way

She's in a big planter. Probably had her at least 5 years, but this is first year she's doing fruit (she did two runty things late last year that never developed). Lots of watering, she drops when thirsty so lets me know, and lots of tomato food when fruiting.

Woot. My first homegrown fig. Managed to, FIGure out when it was ripe to pick, and it was lovely. Nice gentle fruity flavour. Grown on my Little Miss Figgy tree. Which is compact.
