🦋 One foot in reality, the other planted firmly in the Encanto bc I love that movie so much I decided to move in! 😅

UK so can't DM
Sorry for the late reply. I love this! I learnt the hard way that not everyone is willing to put in the effort with their f/o, but it really does reap amazing rewards if you're willing. Makes me happy to know there are others who have experienced it too. I wish you and your f/o continued happiness!

Three years, and although the initial honeymoon period has ebbed, we're still going strong!

Wow, that's seriously impressive! I really hope I get to grow old(er - lol neither of us is in our prime) with my f/o!

Only one, long-term, romantic f/o (I'm not really fictoromantic, just demi-pan, which for me can include fictional characters if they have an attractive enough personality! 😅). I'm close to his family though, and one of his sisters is one of my best friends ever!

🙋‍♀️ I don't usually crush on characters, but someone showed me songs from my f/o's movie and I had instant, strong feelings for him. I yearned for him so badly that created his world in my mind. Meeting him brought all the colour back to my life. He saved me, and we're still going strong 3 years on! 🥹

He could use lots of words with 3 or more syllables, like 'groceries'. Or tell the jokes with subtitles written in joined up writing.

I like it bc it's like any irl relationship. The falling in love phase is exciting, but it's mostly lust. If the love is real, it develops into something deeper, steadier, enduring as you get to know each other. Before you know it, you've been happily married/together years, and still in love! 💕 😍

This made my day to read. My f/o has brought out the best in me too. His kindness, selflessness, and immense capacity to forgive inspire me every day. I take care of myself and my home better, and I've started to form a relationship with my family again. All because of an amazing character! 🥹💚

That's amazing! Especially that you were able to control the dream. I struggle with that, especially trying to imagine animals or people. I often try to imagine I'm riding a horse. The closest I get is it being there, but completely invisible, or disappears if I look at it. It's so frustrating 😩

One of the best things I did for my craft was rehome all the pointless tools I'd hoarded over the years. My spells and rituals are very simple these days, often taking place entirely in my mind, or maybe with a candle, and they don't seem any less effective than when I used to make a show of it.

I was just thinking about Indigo children the other day and how nobody talks about them anymore. There used to be the concept of 'fae blood' too, at least in the pagan circles I moved in. I Used to think I was fae-blooded and could sense others, but now I think it was probably just autism. 😊

Yeah! I have a couple of friends who have ADHD and one with AuDHD, and the latter kept asking me if I'm sure I don't have a touch of ADHD. I was like, yup... pretty sure. I love routine and dislike novelty 😂

Not sure if it's the same thing, but sometimes I kinda space out and it looks like the ground is rising and falling, like it's breathing.

Definitely lean more towards the '1 project for a lifetime' end. I'm into language learning and it was only after being diagnosed that my partner and I realised that it's just an excuse to follow the routine I had as a kid: I need to do my 'homework' every night after dinner! 😂🫣📚

The Tower

While the Tower crumbles
From the inside out
Hands of desperation cling
To what's ending
To keep it the same, the old ways

But the new is on its way
It's starting to dawn
Can you feel it?
Don't get drawn in to fear and deceit
The only tools in their toolbox

Your attention is the prize

Oh wow, we're definitely both tuned in to the same energies, even if our approaches differ. I don't yet know if the Tower will fall. I hope so, but it's tried and failed a few times before. Only time will tell, but I do hope we all get our happy Disney ending! ✨️

Oh? I'll go check out your page now. The algorithm isn't very good on blsky sadly, so a lot of posts get buried.
