i’m a person who often wants physical affection but is also very uncomfortable and particular about physical contact
“I believe marriage isn’t between man and woman, but between love and love.”
—Frank Ocean “We All Try” (via hauteinnocence)
“I didn’t sleep with him. Not even a kiss. Our last night together, at about 4 a.m., I retreated to take out my contacts, and when I returned, he was lying on the couch. I don’t know how it happened, but I ended up on the couch with him, wrapped in him, feeling safe and blissful and, dare I say it: loved. For the first time in my life. When he tried to kiss my neck, I told him it wasn’t a good idea at all, and he backed off. We lay in each other’s arms into the morning. You are beautiful, I tell him, and he says the same to me. The moment is beautiful. It is a moment I have never experienced before. It felt like pure bliss, pure acceptance, universal love, peace, and all the things people yearn for but don’t seem to find.”
—René Vernor, from Anything Is Possible (via perfect)
