AAAAA please do skip my comment because this is just uhm nothing
I'm not pretty, nor do I have the best attitude, nor am I talented or good at anything, so i've already given up on finding love even though i'm still really young (early 20's). But whenever I read or watch something like this, I end up wanting to be with someone too. Ngl, i'm very lonely, so I think I feel jealous because they have company where they could be their real selves comfortably. I yearn for something like that, someone I could truly be comfortable being myself, but I don't think i'll ever be able to do that, because I myself aren't willing to do so and I don't think anyone would be willing to be with me because of how flawed I am as a person. I've very few people confess to me, and I struggled to accept their feelings as something genuine (I know, it's rude to think like that) because they haven't seen how I really am behind how I "act" around them.
I know this is just self-pity, and I probably am worrying for nothing, and that i'm just being too self-critical for no reason.
Anyway, my point is, whenever I read something like this, I keep on thinking that I want a connection like that too. The story is nice, and I like both jiah and mincheol. HAHAHAH it just makes me think "when is it my turn" fr.
I can't wait for the new season and I hope it comes sooner. ᕦʕ •ᴥ•ʔᕤ
Well, I reached that conclusion when I was 11 tbh I am much better looking than my teenage years. Still, I am too tall, like 173 cm (most boys in my country like petite girls), and I have, how do I say, a strong personality. (A part of it is because I grew up knowing it will only be me and I don't need to depend on others or be a people pleaser. Although I do respect others and I am a supportive person for my family and friends, deep down, I always prioritize my happiness, such as my alone time)
But yeah, as a teenager, I thought in the same way that I was not good at anything. However, it's not possible to not be good at anything. Believe me, you are good at something. Maybe you just haven't found it. (For me, it was art, I finally accepted it and took classes when I turned 23. In the end, I am good at what I do, not best, just good, which is alright)
If you are a perfectionist, then that explains a lot why you think the way you do, I was and still am a perfectionist, and it's truly toxic. Whenever I become aware of it, I try my best to fight it off, I recommend you to do the same.
And honestly there are boys who don't care about looks, it depends on many other factors. I myself am not in a rush, even if I'm lonely I don't think about what it would be like to be in a relationship, instead I spend my time with my friends, which boosts my mental health (it also depends on the kind of friends you have tho)
But remember, never get into a relationship because you feel lonely, everyone feels lonely, it is normal. Sooner or later, you will eventually find someone who you are into, know them to some extent, really like them, and want to be with them! My advice? If you are not shy and the situation is okay, just confess your feelings, if they said yes it would be great, if they said no then it wasn't meant to be. (I don't get emotional myself, since I don't believe that there is only one person who we can love. Love comes in many forms and shapes, but if it gets a chance to grow then it will turn into "like" which is a higher form. It means you are comfortable and at peace when you are around them, and you would like to spend all your days with them since they make you happy and a better person).
I said all of that, but I still believe that the only person who can make you happy is you, so take better care of yourself.
As a fellow in their early 20s, I really find solace in your comment. It really gets me down especially when the ppl around me have someone as well. I guess im a bit envious of something i want but probably won't have. Anywaysss I wanna put it out into the universe, may you find your special someone and Hoping for short hiatus for season 2.
It took me til 30 to have this kind of connection. I had horrible relationships before and for a while I did get comfortable being single and I thought, "I'll probably never get into a relationship again.... I'm okay with it." And with that mindset I started focusing on my friendships and myself. So when I did finally get into a relationship again it was much healthier and we had been friends for a long time. I still get really mushy thinking about my partner but it took time and I'm a 30 year old weeb who loves reading webcomics and manwha. What I'm trying to say is that it's going to be okay. You deserve to be happy and you deserve a healthy wholesome relationship. It's okay if you think you're too old, too jaded, too plain, too lonely, too anything. Just remember that sometimes you find the right person on your journey to finding youself and that journey is a lifelong pursuit. I know that's corny but I wish you luck and I'll be sending all the love I can to you.
