i just got home from my friend's birthday party, and i've calmed down from the stress. things like this, when content creators end up being controversial, are always stressful for me, and unfortunately, i'm dumb enough to fall for it every time because i get so blinded with how much i love them. again, with the limerence, it just broke my heart when i found out. i texted my friend ellie when i found out about it this morning, and here's some highlights. (blue text is me, yellow is ellie)
today at 10:41 am, woke up like two hours ago, and spent 15 minutes prior to texting scrolling through anti-jared padalecki tags on tumblr
literally shaking i thibk my day is ruined
i went down a rabbit hole of anti-(wspn actor) and im slowly succumbing to the painful reality that these people probably aren't very good people
i don't even know if i even want to go to [friend]'s party
it is way too early for this
...there's all this air about them and i just learned about it
it's like this whole ordeal and it's all legit
everything is immortalized on the internet and i just so happened to expose myself to it
similar to a car crash, it's awful and i can't turn my attention from it
i feel so much and i have nothing to say
this is some awful cycle that happens every time i get really into something
the worst part is i devote much of my time and thought into it, and it's harder to let go of
with time and thought comes my love and care, and hearing these things for the first time makes me feel stupid for not seeing it
i assume this is how breakups feel involving infidelity
similarly, i can't love properly
i love too much for some things but care too little for others when it should be the complete other way around
its this level of limerence and devotion to something that fucks me every time because i keep falling for it
seeing their characters interact and knowing what happened offset will always be something i think about
i like kanyes music but i wont ever hear him differently from the things he says and does
im already involved in things besides supernatural
pretending for too long because i like the show and not the people wont work because the reality outside of escapism will come back too strong and leave me feeling about the show as i did with those contributing to it
(me being silly to try to knock it out of me)
...when i'm in a lamenting competition and the room is filled with mirrors
basically after that, i apologized for crashing out before i told my blog. ellie checked in on me to see how i was doing while i was shopping for birthday gifts and again after the party. as a summary, i'm fine now and no longer crashing out. i am disheartened and it will take time to heal, but because i've been going through these things, i've become wiser each time it happens.
