New Wishes
A handful of wishes pulled from the cabinet this morning. Pick one up — copy, save it to your pinboard, or send it on.
Anniversaries remind me that we're not lucky — we're attentive, and there's a real difference.
Happy anniversary, my love — one more year on the books, and I'm still underlining the best parts.

Comparisons are the cheapest form of cruelty, and he handed them out like business cards.
If your boyfriend's wishlist starts with your measurements, the wishlist itself is the problem.
I stopped apologizing for the body that has carried me through every version of myself.
Some men want a relationship; some want a customizable avatar — make sure you know which you signed up for.
He kept editing me in his head until I no longer recognized the draft.
Loving someone means appreciating the body in the room, not the one in the algorithm.
I will not bargain with mirrors that were never honest in the first place.
A wish about your size says everything about his imagination and nothing about your worth.
I'm not the rough version of someone he saw online — I'm the actual person who showed up.
Bodies aren't bids you accept under pressure — they're homes you live in without apology.
When he wished I looked different, I wished he had the courage to want what was already here.

I refused to shrink, expand, or rearrange for someone who wouldn't shrink his ego an inch.
He compared me to strangers and called it preference — I called it an exit.
You can love yourself and still notice when someone is quietly trying to remodel you.
His wishlist had a place for new curves but no room for honest conversation.
I learned to stop translating his dissatisfaction into evidence against myself.
Insecurity dressed as desire is still insecurity, and it still has nothing to do with me.
