You should imagine me like this.
Hornet, the protagonist of Hollow Knight: Silksong, is captured running from right to left, her body leaning forward dynamically. Her limbs consist of simple, tapered black strokes, but her head is large and white, with long horns forming a U shape. Her eyes are featureless black pits in her skull. Hornet is wearing a flowing read dress and carrying her signature weapon, a sewing needle the length of her body with a long, glowing white thread tied through the needle's eye and swirling around her.

I like the greater shiny content on the one on my left, your right.

My tallest shoes only make me about 5’6”. I clearly need to up those numbers.

So what's different about Commander that attracts cool people?

Full disclosure: I had to look it up to see that it's MTG variant/supplement(?).

So it sounds like you're essentially relying on therapy then. It seems like you gained a lot working with your previous therapist. I don't recall if you have a new on yet. If so, how are they working out.

After ruminating a bit on the topic, thinking my romantic life could've been dramatically better if I'd only made smarter choices is arguably worse than believing I've always been physically, mentally, & emotionally unattractive. Because the former makes my nearly nonexistent love life my own fault.

Look, I have a problem with too many hobbies, but you are at the next level. Especially after some recent pharmacological interventions.

Are you on an SSRI, by any chance? Have you considered one?

I will stipulate that I've never had any confidence with girls, so there's certainly a correlation.

When did you find your confidence. Was it when you came out?

misinterpreted "be" attraction. And I just don't buy that. If anything, I think the opposite is more likely.

OK. Just wanted to understand what you meant.

Speaking of "be" and "be with" attraction, the therapist I see about gender identity told me recently that, because I've discovered "be" attraction toward women recently, I don't know if the "be with" attraction I've always felt for them is

OK, that was probably a component. But, depending on how you count, I had a 0% success rate asking girls out in college, so that couldn't have been all of it.

Is that last line meant to be ironic, or are you merely clarifying because you mentioned crushes earlier?
