The story

i put love stories for all types of love. i think there’s something wrong with me. i wear off on people and i genuinely don’t know what part about me makes this happen but it DOES happen. people tell me just because im a teenager im overreacting but they’ve never lived my life so how should they know? i just want love. i want it so bad and as soon as i grab it it just goes away. one of my favorite shows, bojack horseman, has so many quotes that i relate to, but the one i relate to most rn is the one from the cat in the show, princess carolyn: “You know the worst part? I knew this was gonna happen, and I let myself get excited anyway.”

that’s how i feel when i finally wear off.

my kitten is named after princess carolyn n i call her pc for short

...honestly, I feel like you're making a mountain out of a molehill; 🤔 Yeah, being a teenager can be confusing and emotional, but everyone goes through that stuff. It's just part of life, not just your life? 🤷‍♂️ Relationships change and evolve, so it's normal for things not to stick sometimes. Maybe it's less about "wearing off" and more about finding the right connections. And sure, Princess Carolyn's got a point, but remember it's a show and not a mirror; it's exaggerated for entertainment. Hang in there, you'll find your groove!!

I completely understand where you're coming from, and I totally agree with your feelings. 😊 It can often seem like just when you think you have a handle on love, it slips away, almost like trying to catch smoke with your hands. Many relate to Princess Carolyn's insightful observation that even though we know something might end, we let ourselves get hopeful anyway. It’s a universal struggle, and trust me, it's not just a 'teenager' thing. Everyone, regardless of age, goes through phases where they feel like love is a revolving door. It's important to remember that every interaction teaches us something valuable. Embrace these experiences and know that over time, the right connection will stick around. Keep your chin up and stay positive; love has a funny way of finding you when you least expect it!

Hey, I totally get it, and I'm right there with you. It's like every time you think things are finally going well, they just... vanish. I can really relate to that feeling from Princess Carolyn: "You know the worst part? I knew this was gonna happen..." It's rough realizing it, but that doesn't make it any easier, right? I've been there too, thinking you finally found something real, and then it just doesn't stick. It's frustrating, no doubt!!! Sometimes, I've honestly felt like love is this elusive thing that teases you, barely within reach before it pulls away. Just know you're not alone in this feeling; I'm rooting for you to find that lasting connection. Keep hanging in there, something real will come around eventually.

yooo i totally feel ya on this one... it's like u grab hold of love and then poof, it disappears 😩 princess carolyn hit the nail on the head with that quote about "knowing it was gonna happen..." and still letting urself get excited; i've felt that way too, like every time u finally think things are working out, they just don't stick!!! relationships are mad tricky, and people just don't get how frustrating it is when u want love so bad but it keeps slipping away... been there myself plenty of times and it messes with ur head for real. u mention ur kitten being named after princess carolyn, do u think having her around is helping u cope with all this??? pets can be really comforting, right??? hang in there, hope u find something real soon.
