if an elf and a dwarf fucked, would it make a human?
Going by older editions of D&D they made an awkward ugly thing called a Dwelf, which usually combined the worst aspects of both races personalities and physical construction.
… yeah, a human
according to this they’re basically Humans But Better and now I desperately want to play a Dwelf
Relationships get so bananas when you start deciphering the other person’s love language.
Like I thought I was just acquaintances with this person because they never told me details about themselves and we just talked movies and writing . But then they made time to have coffee with me and they showed up out of breath because they ran. Like. RAN to be on time for coffee with me?
And I was like “i don’t mind waiting” cause I never want to run
But they said they wanted every minute they could get because I’m so busy usually
Which is when it clicked that I didn’t get how much they considered me a friend because I just straight away didn’t see MY signs of affection in them and went “cool! Casual buds it is.” But now that I’m seeing their signs of affection, I feel a little silly for dismissing them like that even though I felt like we could be best bros.
Anyway, some people show affection through time or intensity or commitment and not vocally. I really have to remember that!
Fyi- just in case you didn’t know.
TOUCH got a bro that likes to give high fives? Back slaps? Are they a hugger? Do they not blink an eye at cuddles?
QUALITY TIME this bro will (as op stated) sprint to spend every minute possible with you. Every second that you guys are together is a declaration of affection.
WORDS does your bro tell you how amazing and great and fantastic and wonderful you are all the time? Guess what…?
GIFTS do they buy you coffee? Snacks, energy drinks, spot you at the restaurant? Did that one key chain removed you of them? Ding ding!
ACTS are they always doing things for you? Ie: Nah bro, I got this, I can do that, need me to get anything for you, I can help with…?
PRO TIP – The way people show love is often how they receive love as well.
I reblogged this recently but it got better and ive been thinking and learning a lot abt love languages so
Actually, since my love languages feel like the most intimate way of showing affection and I’ve got social anxiety, my love languages are often the last ones I opt to show other people, because I don’t want to come across as being clingy or overbearing.
Subtle ways of guessing a person’s love language, aside from asking them:
TOUCH: Has a thousand pillows and blankets. Would die before taking a cold shower. Never the first person to break away from a hug. Excessively pets animals. Will get upset by playful stomach jabbing or unexpectedly getting water dumped on them– don’t intentionally try cause this person discomfort, even as a joke, as they see physical contact as a reflection of how much you care about them. May complain a lot about extremely minor injuries.
QUALITY TIME: When you’re eating lunch with this person, they will not be texting or surfing the internet while talking to you. Their phone probably will not even be on the table. Gets sad when events are cancelled. Like OP mentioned, they will show up on time to social gatherings or appear stressed/out of breath if they are late.
WORDS: If you write something nice in a note, they will keep it for years. May frequently insult themselves/ fish for compliments. Get very upset when insulted by other people. Will blush or have a strong reaction to specific/unique compliments, but will not necessarily react to more general compliments like “You’re so nice!!”
GIFTS: If you offer this person a stick of gum, they will react very strongly. May appear crushed if they receive a gift they can’t enjoy, like food that contains an allergen. If complimented on a piece of clothing/jewelry they received, they will beam and say, “Thanks!!! ____ got it for me!” because they absolutely remember who gave it to them even 6 years after the fact.
ACTS: If you help this person change their flat tire, they will absolutely remember years down the line. Likely to offer compensation of sorts, but may be disappointed if you accept said compensation. But really, if they mention that they’re stressed about something, offer to help them out and watch how strongly they react. And make sure you follow through with that offer.
Often, the best indicator of a person’s love language is how hurt they are by the reverse of that language.
egin:
Oh, child…how can I apologize to you?
he is here
a lot of fiddly little pieces but he seems more stable than my Sheeda so I’m not too worried about him getting jostled (poor Sheeda falls over if you even look at her wrong)
he is here
fire your boss
I’m just counting down the days until he retires, man
…though he keeps changing the date so Who Fucking Knows
my boss “it’s called the theory of the other”
me, who has two degrees in psychology and sociology “yeah, I know”
My boss pissed me off by saying that I hold people to a high standard after I complained about those who show an inability to treat others with basic decency.
I’m sorry but I don’t think expecting people to treat others with kindness or, at the very least civility, is a high standard to hold. I think it’s the lowest fucking bar you can possibly set and anyway, if you can’t even do that I’m not going to waste my time on you.
