Pinktober 2020 Question 26
Sometimes I fear these Pinktobers will be pulling the curtain too far back, but I think it's important to see relationships are complicated and take work. When I first met :SnowyCheshire: he was obviously very intelligent and nice, but what he was showing me obviously wasn't the real him. I demand honesty, my lovelies--honesty of myself, and honesty of others. If you come to me parroting what I say back to me, holding back your own views and perspectives just so that I'll like you--that's dishonesty. If you come to me pretending you're something you're not for my sake? That's not you. I want, and always want the real and authentic you. I spent years pretending to be something I wasn't for the sake of someone else, and I know a relationship can't survive when people do that. Is it possible things might not work out if you show the real you? Yes, but in the long run you'll be much happier with someone who sees the real you and loves you regardless of any faults you think you may have.
Nivvy heard what I had to say, got an outside view he respected above all else, did some hard introspection, and took a risk. Now, I'm not perfect by any means. I would later need to challenge myself and take a risk just like he did, but his actions allowed us to even get deeper feelings started. The person he was pretending to be was nice--the real him is charming, passionate, playful, logically minded, warm, endearing, responsible...and I love him to death. <3
Thank you so much for the question/s! If you'd like to ask one, you can head over here: https://www.furaffinity.net/view/38365724/ and ask away! Questions are picked at random so things stay fair~ The month is almost over, but there is still time to get in a question and have it answered!
Art is mine~
P.S Kim is surprised in the bottom panel because when I do call people out on these deeper things like this, they often just fade away--but Nivvy didn't. He really surprised me. <3

Even though I've never been in a deeper relationship, I do know it's a two way street in so many things, you gotta raise each other up and allow each other to soar. It's not all easy or probably ever easy to find but when you find a true connection it is probably amazing as long as you keep those open channels of communication so little things don't fester.
I will say the whole bit about being yourself hits close to home, to some extent for me cause before I moved out of my parents place and started dealing with personal issues I kind of realized a lot of the things my parents did that didn't fully allow me to be me and surprise surprise as soon as I could be me I started being successful in life and am able to manage myself as an adult and leave room for hobbies and my little self alongside college and work. So not being true to yourself can affect way more than relationships

Not at all~ It was a good question! I honestly feel it's important to show the struggles as well as the happy result. I wouldn't want folks just seeing this relationship I have and thinking "the right one/s" are absolutely perfect with zero problems. And thank you so much! I'm not sure where Nivvy and I are headed but it's been an amazing journey so far <3
