Excuse me.

If I may interrupt, while the user that posted this thread was someone other than myself, this is a matter that I have maintained some curiosity regarding as well. You say to consider it as a gift rather than reward, but I likewise cannot condone that action.

I am not one that should accept the affections of others, yet it remains difficult to stop.

[(Anonymous)]

for fuck's sake stop whining

"oh noooo people like me what will i doooooooo" can you even hear how stupid you sound

[(Anonymous)]

I am well aware that it may appear strange to some. Further, I myself am truly quite stupid.

Still, however, the fact remains.

[(Anonymous)]

have you tried punching yourself in the face since apparently you deserve it or whatever

[(Anonymous)]

That's a wonderful idea. Thank you very much.

glad i could help (❁´▽`❁)*✲ﾟ*

HARPY IS THIS YOU

[(Anonymous)]

No, it isn't. I'm sorry.

As the one who said "consider it a gift rather than a reward"—why is it that you don't think you should accept the affections of others?

For context, I am someone who, by the sum of my past actions, could be considered irredeemable. However, I have both changed my attitudes a great deal, and also I suppose in my care for others, others have come to care about me as well.

I would say that even if you don't feel like you deserve love, and even if the you of now can't accept it, it's still good to have more love and understanding for one another in the world. I can't fault someone for offering love and kindness, personally, even if it's naive.

Thank you very much. Your reply is dearly appreciated. Though I am pained to ask such things of others, that you would provide advice so comprehensive leaves me grateful.

As for my own self, it is my concern that greater detail may result in revealing my identity. While not dissimilar from your circumstances, it is likewise not a matter of lacking within myself. To offer love is of little consequence; it is simply not to be received.

I'm really glad I could help! People have been so kind to me in both caring about my welfare as well as expecting better from me that I feel like it's only right to help pay it forward.

It's okay if you feel like you can't accept love right now, or if you feel like it'll never happen. Maybe that'll change, or maybe it won't. But even if you can't accept love—whether it's romantic or platonic or familial—I hope you'll allow the people who care about you to support you in other ways. Care can take a lot of forms, after all.

[(Anonymous)]

Certainly.

It is something other than that even still, but I have been given a great many things to consider. Thank you.

Sir Tequila Sunrise.

May I interject? There is some information that I believe may be very helpful to you.

[(Anonymous)]

I'm not Tequila Sunrise. I'm sorry.

[(Anonymous)]

Well, nonetheless.

[(Anonymous)]

Should it please you, and if I would be so acceptable as to receive it, then do feel free.

The first thing to understand, of course, is that all things deserve to be loved. Beyond this, there is no amount of love anyone is deserving or undeserving of. And because of this, love is a beautiful and sacred thing. It underpins everything we think, say, and do. It is a boundless web, which connects all things and forms the very fabric of reality. Without love, there is no life, and therefore no death. Without love, there is nothing.

And that means to reject someone's love, you are consigning some part of them to oblivion: the part of them that cares for you so deeply. But this is a painful thing! After all, they themselves have not been cast into the void, and so they must live knowing some part of them will always go unfulfilled. If you are not yourself hateful and selfish, this leaves you with two options: you repay your debts and love them in kind, granting them the mercy of death...or you accept that someone, somewhere, keeps you in their mind so that you do not slip between the cracks of reality, for that is all love is. An anchor. There is, I suppose, a third choice in there: to cut your line and face annihilation, but those who love you will seldom allow this: they either want you here or they want to end you themselves.

So, to accept it, what must be done? I should note here that to accept one's love does not mean to give in to it. Whatever they wish to do with their love, whatever effect they want their love to have on you? You do not need to let this happen. But you do need to understand that there is nothing to be done once someone holds you in such regard. Even making them hate you...well, that's just a different sort of love, and it will always come full circle to the sort of love you're afraid to receive. Love, therefore, is an inevitability, and if you are scared of it, there is only one thing that can be done. The same thing we do when we face death or the cruelty of life with fear in our hearts. When faced with the inescapable, we beg, we plead, we pray.

We cry.

We cry, and fear leaves us.

We cry, and we find the strength to stand.

We cry, and this moves us forward for however long it takes to find our happiness. So, the next time someone reveals to you their love? Bite back every other reaction you may have. Here is what you do.

You cry.

And with time, you will find that it isn't so bad, after all.

You really thought that was me?

Do I really think Arya is guilty every time I accuse her? When I hunt Lucifel, am I doing it because I plan on killing him and devouring his heart? When I decline to inform everyone of the body's location, is it because I don't know where it is?

It's altogether foolish to ask questions that have answers you aren't prepared for, and every action one takes in life is question inviting a response. Therefore, it is also important to know what response your questions will receive and to accordingly only take actions that will, regardless of the answer, only help you to work towards your goals. Thank you for responding as expected and confirming your interest in this inquiry, Sir Tequila Sunrise.

Now then, once more: would you like some advice? Let it be known that ignoring or declining this request will result in you receiving said advice via channels that you would find much more unpleasant.

[(Anonymous)]

I did not ask for any advice.

[(Anonymous)]

Much like love, you do not need to ask for advice in order to have it offered to you.

Yes or no, Sir Tequila Sunrise?

[(Anonymous)]

No. There is no channel worse than an anonymous public forum, Sashay.

[(Anonymous)]

Heard, understood and acknowledged. Unrelated to the question asked, there is one other thing I'd like to tell you, however.

[(Anonymous)]

tbf, you do seem like someone who would have this problem
