Making this post just for myself for now, because only I know, what a journey it has been, from the beginning of the month to today; from my traumatising experience in Bangalore last year to the most amazing first Pride I could've imagined. Happy Pride to all of us🌈🌈💖💖
The audacity some people show on that good for nothing app despite knowing that they’re impersonating someone who’s not even supposed to be there is next level💀 also I somehow cannot remember this person’s username 😭
Tbh many of these queer people I see on Instagram seem to live in a world very different from mine - their world is all about parties, social gatherings, being able to dress in whatever way they like, while mine is miles away from this….
Being able to open tell my sister and cousin that I went on a date with a guy day before yesterday would’ve been impossible for me 2 years ago🥹 and their reaction of “batake nahi ja sakta tha kya, aur taiyaar karke bhejte” is 😭😭😭😭✨✨✨
It’s almost as if fortune was waiting to turn things around the very next morning. Albeit a small one, but a Pride walk at your workplace really means something ❤️
This is something that has been going on in my mind for a very long time. And I know I might sound ignorant or insensitive in some places, but I really needed to write this down because I am at a crossroads right now, not sure where to go.
Presumably my first ever presentation at a literature event, more so a queer event. Looking at the progress I've made just in the past 3 weeks, I guess we've come a really long way now.
Being able to tell my sister openly about being sexually active and getting my first STI tests yesterday was probably something that I had never expected would happen, but I guess she’s the only one in the family who I can lean upon for everything.
After being thoroughly dejected throughout the month, finally made some efforts to come for the

. Although a major portion of it was reflective of how my journey is, alone, but I’m still glad I was able to meet a lot of people. Also apologies for exiting early😅❤️
When my sister today told me how she shut a homophobe in her college by saying “the day you stop being uncomfortable by the thought of two guys or two girls kissing, call yourself normal that day, you’re just like the judgemental adults till then” I felt so proud🥺🥺✨✨

To the person who made my evening special, whose hugs made me feel warm and comforted after so long, whose experiences are spookily similar to mine, and whose appetite is twice that of mine😂

I'm so so glad that we finally met💖 thanks again

Having to confirm to your bank’s fraud monitoring wing’s call that you actually swiped your salary account credit card for an OF subscription, of a guy, is both an adrenalin rush and an embarrassing moment at the same time🤡😭💀
How do y'all feel if a guy you had a steamy hookup with last night (it was his first time) and who accidentally gave you this, and even though he liked it, feels guilty about everything and disappears from your life the very next morning? 💀😭🤡
So parents read my entire performance appraisal including my manager’s comments and got so happy about it🥹🥹 the spark I saw in my dad’s eyes when he said he was proud of me🥹
2022 in 4 best days of the year, where, at least for a while, I felt happy and proud of myself. Even though the year has been a literal roller coaster, I still have life changing experiences and memories from it❤️
Also I forgot to tell y’all how good a host and person
@bum_shaker
is❤️ pura ek mahina late post karne ke liye sorry🥲but I had really loved the time we spent together and look forward to meeting again❤️

Constantly worrying about what if my parents bring up this or that topic again, or trying to find that small space for my queer self, just to slice it in between my mundane routine as an accidentally-out queer kid in an average middle class household which isn’t that “modern”.
Look who went on a post exam snack and a scooter ride around the city with me today🌝🌝🌝 trust me y’all are missing out on a lot by not meeting
@a_bad_redvelvet
😋😋❤️❤️
Had to spread my legs and bear the pain of the needle in the crotch at the hands of my dermatologist for a rather embarrassing reason, but at least he’s a sensible doctor who now knows about my sexuality so it didn’t get that bad🥹😭
Who needs another source of entertainment when you have this mister sitting in front of you?
@pragnyeah
also deserves special mention for tolerating me the entire day😂
Just what I had promised her when I got my job, finally happened on Dhanteras. Felt so proud when I swiped my card for this ring and my sister’s chain for her bhai dooj gift.🥺
Tell this to people who ask you to go back into the closet because "log kya kahenge" - didn't you also break stereotypes that your previous generation had, by revolting; why didn't you stop then, that you're stopping me now?
So I finally have an oomf who’s probably the closest to me in terms of distance 🌝
@DrPokemonLoke

Happiest 22 to this priceless gem that I managed to find here on Twitter 🥹❤️
