I’d agree. I’d add, it might be different if they talk about stuff with their partner first. Like “hun I’m getting coffee with my new friend and I wanted to warn you I’ve got a little bit of a crush on them but I still.love you.” A convo like that would shift the lines for me, and imo healthy couples communicate about stuff like that.

That’s also a good point. And definitely something real life couples should talk about if/when that situations arises. 

I think what I’m going to have to do is use the tag and put an author’s note begging my readers to trust me. The situation this arises in is something I’m not supposed to discuss yet but there are very good reasons as to why no one in the story talks about what’s going on. I guess I’m just going to have to hope that people aren’t put off by the tag and are willing to give me a chance.

@unforth-ninawaters wait…. YOU feel like a hack? No. No freaking way! You’re one of the best writers in the whole fandom!
I mean, it kinda makes me feel better to know I’m not alone in this but you are DEFINITELY not a hack.

(*hugs*)

Dude. Duuuuude. I constantly feel like a hack, and I can’t even read the words “one of the best writers in the whole fandom” without scoffing cause, what, me? nuh uh absolutely no way.

But that’s kinda the point – I know objectively I’m a decent writer, and a fairly popular one I think. Our brains are fucking liars. Don’t worry about your friends reading your stuff. Heck, even if they don’t like it – it’s happened to me, I’ve written stories that afterwards someone I’ve grown close to in fandom has been like “so um I actually didn’t like that one much” – you still won’t lose your friends over it, and something else you write, that person will adore and someone else will maybe like a bit less. 

So keep writing, and keep believing in yourself, and keep trusting your friends. You got this. 😉 ❤

Thank you 🙂 I needed to hear that.

Objectively, I know that even if my friends don’t like what I write they’re not gonna like me less. (I have friends who don’t like a few of the things I ship or write anyway) but I always have that little nagging in the back of my head that goes “they’re going to think less of you for this”.

But you’re right. My brain is a liar. I just gotta keep writing and doin’ what I do. 🙂

Why do I even say y’all or all y’all?

I’m not from the south.

Worry not, I’m not even American, fuck, my lative language isn’t even english, and I say y’all.

That does make me feel better. Lol.

Y’all and all y’all make more sense as a plural “you” than just “you”. But that’s English I suppose.

You can alwas go French and use “vous”. (Which soulds like ‘you’ except instend of y you say v)

I could. I’m just pretty sure my accent would butcher such a pretty language.

No, really, just say you but with a v. It’s like… the same sound.

Okie dokie. I can try that.

I wonder this about myself often. Especially because I basically DON’T use y’all in my spoken language but I use it online a lot…

I blame the two summers I spent in Texas as a teenager…

*snorts* It’s gotten a lot worse for me since I started using it online but I do use it irl, too.

My excuse is that my dad partially grew up in South Carolina. Texas can totally be your excuse.
