If I let myself drift I might end up doing something on reasoning that when examined is basically nonsense logic but it&rsquo;s harmless, worst I&rsquo;ve caught myself doing was making a cup of tea when it was really too late for caffeine. Which means this is far more together than the actual Halcyon experience, I honestly suspect this is the last downswing embers of this last year&rsquo;s craziness but if it stabilized around this point I could learn to live with it.</p><p>The Tinder stuff tho I dunno. I&rsquo;m definitely like that, that goes together somehow, being more outgoing and social, being more <i>sexual</i> \u2013weirdly it doesn&rsquo;t come off (at least to me, seeing it as much from the outside as anyone) needy or showoffy <i>horny</i> so much as <i>fucky</i> \u2013 and then completely forgetting about it. It&rsquo;s like when this first happened I would have conversations with my mutuals here and for a week be like &ldquo;that went great, glad we caught up!&rdquo; and then look at the transcript and it would be like, me causally invoking the deepest secrets I knew and most personal stuff I inferred to directly solicit sex from them.</p><p>These conversations less shocking to discover in ways, like sure, I&rsquo;ll take it in stride that in the middle of talking with a complete stranger I told her I could tell from her profile how she sexualized her neuroses so well that I knew the perfect place to take her without panties holding my cum inside but like, <i><b>what</b></i>?</p><p>I&rsquo;m not sure I <i>could</i> think my way to saying that in my &ldquo;self&rdquo; character, but some aspect of me obviously can easily. And maybe that&rsquo;s the thing I&rsquo;m protecting myself from, because it seems to get a more positive response than you&rsquo;d think</p>"}
