I think I need to go offline for a while. Somewhere between blogging, scrolling, creating and constantly thinking about what comes next, I lost track of who I am when nobody’s watching. So I’m logging off a little and trying to find her again.

After being made to feel “too much” for wanting closeness, I’ve learned that clingy love isn’t weakness—it’s warmth. This post explores why needing someone isn’t desperate, it’s human. Give me the love that shows up, not the love that plays it cool.
