Pretty Lonesome with Madeline Argy

this week i talk about friendship and why making friends in your 20s feels so fucking complicated. i get into wanting a friend group for basically the first time in my life, the difference between attracting chaotic people and actually choosing to keep them around, and why someone feeling instantly familiar isn't always a good sign. turns out feeling like home and actually being safe might be two completely different things. enjoy love u

this week i talk about why i've slowly stopped centering romance without really meaning to. i get into having crushes as a way of filling an emotional void, where all that obsessive energy actually comes from, and why i've started redirecting it back into my own life instead. we also talk about purpose, learning for the sake of learning, language, fear, and the weird realization that maybe the things we chase in other people have been inside us the whole time. enjoy love u

this week i come to the recent realization that i have control issues, which is deeply inconvenient because i genuinely thought i was one of the least controlling people. i get into the difference between trying to control other people and trying to control yourself, why fear makes certainty feel so comforting, and how i slowly realized i've been mistaking reassurance for safety. we also talk about how it relates to OCD and emetophobia, trusting your own judgment after people let you down, and why i keep sending myself to the metaphorical dungeon every time life surprises me. turns out maybe the goal isn't having more control but maybe learning how to live without needing it. oh and we also get into ACOTAR. enjoy love u

this week i talk about why saying no has always been so hard for me and what it’s cost me. i get into abstinence, therapy, relationships, and this pattern of changing yourself to fit other people's expectations. I talk about self-betrayal, the shame of staying in things too long, and why forgiving yourself for what you tolerated might be the only way to actually move on. also a quick recap of Euphoria and why i think it lost the plot. enjoy love u
