Platonic Love - Tumblr Posts

Had a shit day but then my friend took us out for a drive and we blared loud music and screamed until our voice broke and shared milkshakes and maybe everything will be okay in the end.

I wish casual kisses between friends were normal. Like. Wow. You’re funny and you make my heart full. Let me kiss the arm you have draped on my shoulder and laugh.

Just realised I put on my lipstick the same way my friend does, and it makes me think. My favourite ice cream is my childhood friend’s go-to, even if we don’t speak much anymore. My favourite flower is the one my college friend sends me pictures of because they’re her favourite. What am I but a collection of fragments of all the people I care about? Isn’t that precious enough? Isn’t it?

I have a friend and she’s the most wonderful being in the world. Her laughter reminds me of childhood and her smiles are the brightest things I’ve ever laid eyes on. I love her very much. I don’t think there are enough words in the entire existence of humanity to properly describe the amount of love and care I have for her.

Making my friend a jar full of compliments and mini love letters written on small slips of paper, and I’ll use my ruler to tear them into shape because the edges would be softer and she wouldn’t hurt herself unfolding them. I hope she can tell how much care I put into them.

i was playing the guitar and my fingers hurt but with every twang of the strings, i was just thinking youyouyouyouyouyou.

So, two of my best friends are getting into relationships, at a time of our life where we're going to be splitting up soon. Nearly all of my closest friends are staying in their home town and I'm moving to a completely new city.

It's a scary prospect, and it got me thinking about love and different types of love. I love my friends and I love my parents, but I've never loved someone romantically.

I know romantic love, like any sort of love, isn't a perfect fairy-tale story. In fact, I think I'd hate it if it was.

I want something real with someone who is real, and I'm really happy for the friends of mine who have found that.

I want to be able to pull someone close, kiss them gently, while telling them that I love them, but I need them to fuck off so I can continue writing. I want someone who will laugh when I say things like that.

I think romantic love, like other types of love, has got to be about trust, mutual respect, and a certain amount of fun, or you'd never get through it.

I'm happy for all of my friends who have found that, and I'm excited for when it will be my turn.

Until then, I have a million different types of love to keep me going. And that is enough for some people permanently. Romantic love is not something everyone needs, and I want everyone who follows me, or sees this, to know that, when I talk about romantic love like this, I know that others don't always feel that way, and I support them 100%.

Sorry for the little end rant.

I've been swamped with exams and not had time to draw or write recently, so just some appreciation for Bozer's hugginess. Sorry for the awful quality of most of the images lol.

Note that this compilation is from the first half of the first season alone. Have to admit that a big reason I love this show is its abundance of healthy/affectionate male friendships.

To the best of my knowledge, 1st two from S1E13, 2nd two from S1E09, fifth from S1E08, and the last one from S1E04

I hate that so many things sound like flirting. I’m not flirting I’m not trying to use my zero rizz on you I just genuinely want to know if you want to go get something to eat! I’m telling you I love you not that I’m in love with you I’m asking how your day was because I care! I want to give you a hug not because I have a crush but because I love giving hugs because they make people feel safe and warm and I love that! I hate how there is no other type of love besides romantic in the eyes of most people.

I had been speaking to my coworker, and then I had to leave, but she called my name and I turned and was like “What?” and she just smiled and happily said “Love you”

does she know how much she melted my heart with that? It was so pure??? and wholesome??? and just so out of the blue like sweetie honey are you really out here making me happy with just two words?? I keep thinking about it because it really was just the cutest thing. And I’m not even that close to her. She’s my friend but I never thought I meant that much to her and then she’s just out here casually dropping affection and I’m just

anyways

Why I Can’t Bring Myself to Tell My Friends I Love Them

I used to tell my friends that I loved them all the time. If I saw them doing something I thought was cute, or if they made an awesome joke, or if they tried their hardest on something, or when I would get the occasional rush of gratitude for them, I would tell them. Love was meant to be expressed when they were still there to receive it, and love was meant for everyone. I wanted everyone to know that love was meant to be given liberally.

Back when my ex best friend cared about me, she was so supportive. She would tell me that there was good in the world and there were things to be living for, and she would always be so happy and in love with life. She was a small person, with a round face and the warmest hugs, and she would tell me that I was worth it. That I was worth loving, that I was amazing, that I made her life better. My second new best friend does that too. She does all of that. They’re different people, but in terms of what they provide me they’re nearly the same, and in terms of appearance, they look similar. And that scares me because there’s a reason my ex best friend is no longer my friend, and to see the same feelings start for someone similar is terrifying.

When I finally acknowledged my first best friend after moving on from the last one, I noticed she was giving me everything my ex best friend couldn’t, but I was resigned to the idea that she wasn’t as verbally or physically affectionate. I still love that best friend, but those are my love languages, and I don’t usually get them from other people. And then my second best friend came into my life and gave me exactly what I wanted and needed that was missing from my first best friend. But now there’s a problem. Because my first best friend isn’t very verbally affectionate, she probably wouldn’t like it if I told her I love her, and even if she did, I would be opening up to her too much and that might push her away. My second best friend would absolutely love it if I told her I loved her, but I’m too worried that I’ll put all my energy into that friendship only to slowly realise that I’m not getting anything back.

I want to love them. I do love them. And I always thought it was a cliché motivation when a character was like “I’ve been hurt before and I don’t want to be hurt again”, but that is exactly how I feel and I couldn’t even trust my second best friend when she told me that she would always care about me because that’s what I told my ex best friend and now I hate her with a burning passion. I hate songs like “Night Changes” or “The One That Got Away” because they remind me that something you think will be infinite could end within a moment, and I hate reading fanfics where characters end up far away from each other with no possible way of regaining the relationship they had before and/or in canon because that’s the truth of life. People will come and go and you can’t do anything about it. Love is never going to be enough if it’s only going one way. Life isn’t a show where everything comes full circle; there are going to be loose ends and regrets and there will be no consolation or closure and everyone leaves eventually no matter how much you or they care. I love my best friends now but if I admit it to them then it solidifies the idea that there’s something to lose, and I can’t stand that. I don’t want to be hurt again. Despite how genuine my best friends may be right now, there will be a day where they don’t care. I don’t want to reach that day. I don’t want it to continue to that point. I don’t want to tell them I love them.

One of my best friends will no longer be my coworker, so that means that now more than ever I cannot tell her that I love her, because her leaving means most of our interactions will be through texts, which means it will be easier to idolise and create my own image of her. The bad news is, I was talking about love languages with her and said I wanted to spend money on her because “money is my love language”, and then she said she loved me “too” and then I realised I inadvertently told her I loved her so anyway life was a mistake

I love my friends. I love them all so much. They make me so happy, and they make life seem like a wonder. I spent time with them yesterday and it really made me feel so much better about myself, and we got to talk and laugh and hug. I just really love my friends. I never thought this would be possible. Five years ago I thought I would be dead before I ever got to college and yet here I am, living and loving. It’s all for them. It’s all because of them 💜

My friend offered me a ride home but I already had a ride so I didn’t go with her, but as she drove away she shouted “I love you!” out her window and I just kind of

*melts in a puddle of happiness*

HEARTSLABYUL

• The first time you ever stare at Riddle he looks back at you a few seconds later with a confused expression as you keep staring at him. He would then get slightly more confused and then annoyed and asks you what you are doing, to which you just wander off without saying a word.

• This will confuse Riddle even more as he touches his face to see if anything was on him or in his teeth, he realizes an hour later that you were just staring at him for no reason, this makes him feel.. Happy? Or maybe.. prideful that the chance that you might look up to him..? Yes. This must be the answer! Riddle will ask you tomorrow :D

***

• Trey has noticed that you stare at him from both afar and when you both walk with each other. Of course he doesn’t mind it, in fact, you remind him when Riddle was younger and shy when they first met! What an adorable person you are!

• One time Trey asked you a question and you were so zoned out on him that he waved his hand in-front of you face and you looked super embarrassed and answered his question with a crooked smile as he chuckled at your reaction. Maybe he should call you out on it more often?

***

• Cater Takes pictures with you all of the time! You and him are basically best friends, at least he think so. But he notices that you are always looking at him in the pictures as he reviews the pictures before posting them. What a cutie you are! Looking so cute and squishy in the picture! (Platonic love)

• He would send you a picture that he likes of the two of you and leave a smart as comment saying ‘You look like you looove cay-cay’ and giggle at your response and tease you the next day you see each other!

***

• Ace definitely makes fun of you as he notices it almost immediately when you guys are officially friends. You stare at Ace as if you had a problem with him, so he jokingly asks you if you want to fight him and you just fumble with your words as he has a shit eating grin.

• But one time when you were caught staring at him he teased you a lot until you were almost crying, he had a heart attack as you are one of his best friends! (Mostly because he accidentally almost made you cry infront of RIDDLE), so he never teased you too much after that. (Key word; TOO MUCH)

***

• Deuce didn’t really notice (because he’s a little dumb <33) but when he did it was when he first played with Leona in a practice game for the spell drive after Leona’s overblot. He only notices afterwards because Jack pointed it out to him, and now he can’t help but get confused and nervous when you do it. It’s not your fault! Well, maybe it is..? But he enjoys spending time with you, it’s just it creeps him out a bit, sometimes he can’t help but call you out on it.

• Like one time he was walking with you back to ramshackle dorm and he couldn’t help but notice the way you glanced at him and stared every time, Deuce then gives up and asks you about it. Deuce then apologizes as he sees you try to find your words and you kinda look like a kicked puppy and he starts to panic and say it’s alright and he’ll never bring it up again..! (Spoiler alert; he does it on accident all the time)

Hello! Thank you for reading, love you guys and good morning/afternoon/night

my heart hurts.

“i feel like i’ve been neglecting you lately,” and do you feel bad? i swear to god, the hardest thing i do is let you live. people grow apart, and thats just how it goes. i love you. i want the best for you. and maybe i’m not what’s best for you. and that’s what hurts. its written all over my face. its in the way i carry myself. its in my voice. my mother knows. she won’t tell me she knows. because i hate to admit that i feel this way.

but i love you. i want the best for you. and maybe i’m not what’s best for you. and that’s what hurts.

you had a pretty bad panic attack on thursday. you ran away on friday. this is how midwest emo songs start, how albums are created for years to come. cmon, “its been three whole years of me thinking about you everyday, sometimes for hours, sometimes in passing.” samples from voicemails. things like that.

its okay.

its going to have to be okay.

i will get through this.

i will have to.

last thursday night, i spent hours researching hrt. i told my best friend. i was 87% sure i wanted to do it. he said, “can i play devil’s advocate?” and i said, “yes,” and he said, “are you sure you want to do it? its a permanent change.”

i laughed.

(i say shit without thinking. i will always say yes to him without thinking. i won’t think about the consequences with him. that’s what happens when this shit is indescribable.)

i get where he’s coming from. but i feel weird, wasn’t it painful to watch me struggle for years to insist i was a girl when i so clearly never quite wore it right? do you really think this is something i’ve decided overnight?

Being happy to be alone on valentines day just proves you're stronger than a lot of heteros.

Be queer, tell your friends you love them, and do your best to love yourself.

enemies to lovers is out.

enemies to "i would die for you"-friend-soulmates is in.

Only for you. (Koba x Human child Reader)

Summary : Koba was hunting but found a child and after some internal battling, he choose to take care of it.

Extra : Gender neutral reader, reader is around 6-7 ish? Its somewhat in the beginning of dawn, so after the bear scene?- You can speak but from an illness, it's difficult to.

Koba was just hunting on his own for something to eat. He had waited too long to eat and and food was gone by the time he went to grab something..

But a cry scared off the deer he was about to catch. He was furious so he went to investigate what caused the disruption, only to come face to face with a human child.

He glared at them but it made them whimper, partly because they also fell on their wound which made him feel the smallest amount of what.. Was this care?

After much thought, he decided to take them in. So he carefully hauled up the child on his horse and they went off, off to saftey. Koba was also somewhat curious on why the child said nothing, but didn't care enough to ask.

There were many eyes on him as he got off his horse, carrying the child in one of his arms. He quickly went to the balcony where he saw Maurice and Caesar signing with eachother. Catching both of their attention.

'Who is this?' Maurice signed first while walking over to Koba. 'Child, from the woods.' He signed back. Caesar was just in some form of shock and confusion.

'We should treat their wounds. Get them cleaned up too.' He signed. The village must have freaked out since they weren't expecting KOBA of all apes to bring a human in.

You were afraid of the apes, they did look pretty cool but you were scared if they were gonna hurt you.

But after you were cleaned up by the one who brought you to the place. As well as help you heal your wound, you did trust them.

You learned their names, but you also knew they were curious on why you didn't speak. You didn't blame them because a lot of other kids could, either way the Bonobo you now saw as your semi-father figure taught you to sign.

'Why do you not speak?' Koba asked. The child now known to be (Y/N) hasn't spoken at all during the weeks they've been here, "sick." They managed to speak out, their voice was scratchy but also pure. He had nodded, nothing to tell the others.

You had been kept in the village where you had been cared for, it was a happy life with your stuffed animal another ape had learned to make and gave to you. And would always have your little moments with your father that you loved. And comforted him with many hugs when he was angry at the world.

And he was kind, But Only for you.
