Cuddles back, nuzzling shoulder

kisses her cheek

Saunters back in

Hey hotnesses and Big Poppa.

Hi kiddo.

I think she wants you to hunt her down.

I...plead the fifth....

sighs softly

You know, I saw earlier that you have troubles with anorexia? And you work out till you eat?

It's funny, I'm on the opposite end of that spectrum. And we may have more in common than you think.

There's a movie, you should see... I'll pm you.

I do. I manage it a lot better than I used to. I used to just not eat at all and work out.....That didn't do good things...It took learning how to do fitness correctly and being recruited into college level soccer to stop it.

I...plead the fifth....

Begging is nice and all but the answer is you are gorgeous.

 

[IvoryTigress]

Not so much, hun, but you're sweet for thinking so.

Kisses cheek

Looks up at Vivi with a certain amount of sadness.

I don't like knowing a friend hears the things I do in my head.....

She leans in softly and presses lips to a pretty cheek, feather light...

Kisses cheek

Uh huh.

sticks out his tongue.

Smiles softly and holds her hand

I do understand, you know. The thinking that if you could just.. change this about your body then you'd be in such a better place, or a better person, or whatever it is that you do to justify the hate on your body.

And it hurts so much, sometimes that food can be this either really cathartic friend or this terrible enemy and never something that can be enjoyed for what it is.

squeezes her hand

 

[BeautifulDream]

*drags self in, plopping down onto the couch* Well damn near all the boxes are moved. Tomorrow big furniture... but now... nap.

*glances at clock then hangs head* Okay, okay.... work then nap.

*drags self off of couch*

 

[IvoryTigress]

Uh huh.

sticks out his tongue.

Narrows gaze......sticks tongue back out at him

Smiles softly and holds her hand

squeezes her hand

She entwines her fingers with Vivi's, raising a gaze to meet hers. A soft, almost sad smile and she raises that hand to kiss it gently.

It's never easy to explain. I hate that you understand, pretty lady. It's not something I would wish on the one person I can safely say I hate. So, if you're having a bad day, you can hit me up.....It's also why you might be hunting me down often. I hate lying. And if I agreed with you....I'd be lying and just saying what you want to hear.

kisses her cheek and hugs her close

I completely understand. And we will all accept that for you to say these words are impossible, at least right now.

But! I think you should work on accepting compliments. Even if you have to just smile, nod and say thank you. We spend so much time and energy telling people that they aren't right when they compliment us, that we sometimes don't realize what compliments are coming our way.

smiles

I tried it a few years ago. Shut my mouth and let the compliments come and learned how to say thank you. It was so hard. But it did change my viewpoint on a few things. Try it. Okay?

Returns the kiss lightly.

I do try. I've been getting better about it...which probably lets you know where I was a few years ago. I try to remember that when I brush aside the compliments, I'm disrespecting the person giving them.....I don't always remember that, but when I do, I usually fall into just saying thanks. It's never my intention to hurt others, so I do make the effort. And there are those people who can look at me...and I'll shut my mouth lol.

No. Work is not allowed!

[marauder13]

Really....too nice....

I think that lines captures the tone of what people around here think of your physical packaging.

shakes his head

Amazing.

I know that I'm not exactly in your target demographic, but holy smokes, you have a lovely body.

Good sir, I could not have said it any better myself. Plus, I agree 100% with you words, and underlying PoV.

What she said!

Compliments are the most difficult thing to accept, but people more often than not, and friends just about every single time, are sincere with them. Being on here has helped me with accepting them, because certain people here * glances sideways at ViVi * have been most insistent with their complimenting me on my writing. It's still tough to accept at time, but I am accepting it more easily each day.

Hi lily!

Peeks up....sticks tongue out at FHD...Then promptly jumps on a couch and pulls her hood up to help hide her face.

I would agree with this....When I remember that I don't like disrespecting people...I try to be better about it...

Waves back.
