purplehello98Doing the Friday Five once again--and once again, actually on Friday!!
1. What's one of the nicest things a friend has ever done for you?
I think the #1 thing I can think of, although it's not a specific instance, is my bestie Blue putting up with all my BS over the years. Thanks and love you! <3
2. What's one of the nicest things a stranger has ever done for you?
Compliment my outfits! I love getting random compliments.
(Is it sad I can't think of any specific instances and have to go with general things for both of these?)
3. What is a trait in another person that you instantly admire, and that draws you to them?
If someone has cultural experiences I can relate to (i.e. growing up on Tumblr, for one!) I often develop an affinity for them! A lot of my closest friends use/used to use Tumblr.
4. What is a trait in another person that instantly repels you, and prevents you from forming a close relationship with them?
If they don't put in any effort into our friendship/relationship/whatever. There are some exceptions, like when you know people are trying their best but are just having a hard time, but if someone doesn't care about me, as much as it may hurt, I have no time for them.
5. Time to vent: tell us about something rotten someone has done to you.
My aunt and uncle (let's call them Mean Aunt and Mean Uncle) said if I went to their daughter's wedding (which was last month) I'd have to use the men's bathroom and wear men's clothing. They've always acted rude and nasty, but this makes me so pissed off. I'm trying to let it go, but if Mean Aunt tries to start anything at Thanksgiving (or maybe even Christmas) I do have a speech prepared with some key bullet points just to tell her off about her nastiness. Think Dance Moms fight without the hair-pulling---moreso Dr Holly style. Like I said, I'm really trying to let this go (and let my toxic roommate situation from last year go and heal from that, and find some way to forgive this creepy guy in my linguistics class) but IT'S SO FRIGGIN' HARD.
