Hello :3 It's been a while since i last posted anything here
I'm more active in instagram now since it's easier to access! Follow me if you want: Aizeku_F
I've been through a lot of things throughout my highschool life. It's busy, having 3 extracurriculer activities, tests, and a lot more. It was pleasant and I'm happier than i was in middle school. Even though my tests' scores dropped considerably, I'm still bery happy and surprisingly chill with everything.
In the past 5 months, i noticed that my depression and anxiety vanished somehow. I live healthier and smile a lot more than i ever have. I don't curl myself in bed and wishing that tomorrow'll never come as often. I thought that it's an improvement and i'm very glad that I can enjoy my days and less worrying.
Now, I have a little problem that worries me a lot. Almost a month ago, I accept someone to be my boyfriend. He's very nice and we've been friends for about 3 years now. But being in a relationship
is a pain.
I don't know why, but i felt that being in a relationship with anyone feels so weird for me. It brings more problems to me and i suffer some anxiety attacks again. I'm a very good liar, so people never really notice me that I'm acting that I'm fine. I'm not. I tried to signal lots of my friends, but they always thought that I'm just to happy to be in a relationship with someone.
in Indonesia, having a boyfriend or girlfriend is such an amazing thing. People will coo at you and tease you a lot. It's like that i have this huge amount of responsibility to make my intended happy.
For 19 days, people said to me that i have to make my boyfriend happy.
But I can't be happy?
As a human being myself, i prefer and have the rights to hang out with anyone and play my phone for hours. If I don't want to spend all my time with my partner, then i shouldn't be forced to do so. But people seem to not get it. I'm not a romantic person and never will be.
so today, my boyfriend came to school when i was playing a game on my phone with my friends. When he came, my friends just stare at me as i continue to play the game and one of them say,
"Hey, your boyfriend is here you know?"
i answered, "I know." and continue playing the game.
My boyfriend didn't say a single thing and just wait there beside me, so i didn't say anything as well.
At breaktime, i went to my friend's classroom to meet with the others. My boyfriend stay outside the class for some reason and when i invited him in, he refused and just stand there.
My friend said this when i sat down, "Your boyfriend wants you to be with you,"
"I see," i mumbled, continuing my activities.
"He actually wants to spend time with you, but he didn't want to disturb you from playing your phone."
So, i snapped that second and become furious since it's been going for weeks now, "I don't want to hear it from you. If he wants something from me, he better said that straight to my face. I don't want him to start relying to thers to send his thoughts to me like you do everyday."
After that, they went silent.
Even though we're a couple, not many people know it. I don't publicly said it to anyone, and people already suspicious that he has feelings for me since he always come and visit my classroom everyday. I don't care though, it's not something to be spread.
I don't believe that i have a romantic feeling for him. But I do want to give him a chance. Perhaps he can make me feel something for him or maybe make me feel happier. But no, i feel stressed. I feel loads of responsibilities tied to my ankles and I hate it.
I just wish that if he want something, just say it.
I can guess. I know what you want. I know what you're feeling. But I DON'T know what would you feel. I don't know what do you want me to exactly do. I don't know how to please you if you can't ask. And i WON'T do it if you can't ask it to me.
For this 19 days, i never held hands with him. I can never touch his forearm without him flinching. And I'm the one who's afraid to be rejected.
Everyday becomes a struggle when I have to be the one who initiate something between us. We can't even keep up a conversation. When I bring up a topic, he'll always reply with a yes or a no and never have any argument. We have no spark. We never have any fight, but i don't have any feelings of happiness everytime he says that he loves me.
and i'm afraid to say that i don't.
This relationship is very weird, but i never had any relationship before so i don't know much. When he confessed to me last month, he just said that he likes me and ask me to accept it or not.
he didn't ask if i love him back or not.
so i accept, receiving the words 'i love you' every night before i sleep. The words that made me question my sanity.
I love thinking a lot of things, like love and pretty stuffs like that. But i don't believe that i have the ability to like someone over the boundaries of family. I don't know. Maybe something's wrong with me?
After i begin my relationship with my boyfriend, my other friends who also 'like' me started to message me.
The first one is the one who initiate kissing my knuckles in the cinema and kissing my hair in the last post. He doesn't sound furious, but i can tell that he's at least a little angry. He's not giving up though. He still message me frequently and ask me to go out with him sometimes. I turn him down everytime since I'm tired with life.
The second one is the first ever to confess to me in middle school, who's also a best friend of mine. I don't know if he knows that i'm in a relationship with his middle school best friend, but he seem to flirt more openly now.
the last one is a girl who was my classmate in 9th grade. She posted some drawings in IG. At first i though she likes someone else, but after the second post, i realized that she likes me.
The first post that she published said that she was having a bad day because of three reasons. The first one is: She found out that she's bisexual and the girl she loves already has a boyfriend.the second reason is that nobody listen to her when she tried to ask for thoughts for the wall magazine. And last one is that she's tired.
I was surprised by the first reason, but I applaud her for coming out as bisexual. She's very sweet and enthusiastic, and I'm glad for her.
When she posted the second post today, I was baffled. She said that: "Is this the feeling when you sit beside the boyfriend of the girl you love? I hate it."
Today, when we have some kind of talkshow (?) or seminar, she sat beside my boyfriend in front of me. Is it bad that I'm feeling guilty over this?
I thought this a lot, but is it better if I'm off as single? Is it better if I never accept it in the first place? Is it better to just let my boyfriend cry when i turn him down that day?
I have a lot of thoughts.
when my boyfriend confessed to me, I can't think straight. The first thing comes to mind is his reaction. If i turn him down, i know that he would've cried himself to sleep and probably refused to meet me in the eye ever again despite what he said. I know that he'll be scarred forever because of me. I know that ALL OF MY FRIENDS will think that I'm stupid for letting such a nice guy walk away from my life.
Now i know why being shipped by others hurts you so much.
I've been trying to cheer myself up now. But I'm always scared to go to school and have to act again. I'm not a strong person. I don't want people to expect me do something when they can't ask.
i can't love someone as they are.
I can only love someone to change them for the better.
I love someone so much so I will give them a chance to be better and find someone else who'll be perfect for them.
I don't need someone to be beside me forever
I'm good with myself. I don't need other people to cuddle me when I have anxiety. I don't need someone who whispered "I'm here" and "I love you".
I just need sleep.
Don't touch me.
I think people still thought that I'm just joking when i said "Don't touch me". I think thay don't understand my obsession towards sleeping. I don't think they know the reason why I'm being so detached towards everything and why I always accept things as they are.
It's because I'm not afraid of death. I feel like I don't need to hold on to anything dear in this world. It's because i prefer the feeling of being alone in my room. It's because i prefer to be wrapped in blanket more than being hugged.
I believe that I'm asexual and i have dismissive kind of romantic attachment.
I do need friends, but I'm very sure that i don't need partner in life.
Sorry for the long ramble :') I have lots of heavy thoughts for a while now, and i just want to tell it somewhat anonymously. Thanks for reading :'3
