⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀𝔦. — red flags

• extremely filmbroish taste in movies
• recreational reader of nietzsche and overall philosophy enjoyer. althusser says that ideology makes us desire our own subjugation is a real sentence i have said unprompted and without a hint of irony
• music taste that is some combination of male manipulator loser virgin, angsty 2000s nu metal douche, and depressed chronically online girl
  • honestly, my spotify account in general like wtf. i would avoid myself based on that and i made it, with a lot of love and care i might add
• gamer. (not nearly as much as i used to so i have that going for me)
• my room is almost always a mess
• emotionally unavailable
• poorly hidden daddy issues
• reddit user. i'm so fuckign sorry
• shy in a way that allegedly makes me seem disinterested and haughty. i am just afraid of you. internally
• untreated unknown mental illness(es) that i will NOT discuss with you and flee the scene like a prey animal if the conversation goes that route
• sarcastic and self-deprecating
• charles leclerc fan but not in a thirsty sports fan way, more in a this is our chosen martyr and i will watch him battle the evil of the world that he can never be untethered from (ferrari) only to stoically watch as he is doomed by the narrative way
• the only characters i REALLY like are the ones that are horribly interpreted and have rabid fan bases. mostly bcs they're alt (like eddie munson) or morally grey (like astarion) and they attract a lot of extremely thirsty weirdos
• wants to go to law school (grimace emoji)
• addendum to that is that i will try and fail to stop myself from talking about legal related things / cases i'm reading at the moment, i know it's boring but i spend hours on it so i can't help it
• mercy main. nah i'm not even ashamed of this anymore i love holding left click and flying around like a mosquito
• likes psychology and studied enough in undergrad to bullshit around without saying anything of substance. however i hate when people try to psychoanalyze others so don't worry i won't do that to you unless you ask me nicely :]
• obsession with lambs, deer, and religious imagery that puts me in the same category as many coquette pinterest girlies (i went to catholic school in a small town leave me alone)
• i think cybersigilism tattoos are cool and would consider getting one. yes it is the gen z version of tribal idc
• i find most romance stories that lack violence (not necessarily within the relationship), psychological issues, a power dynamic, etc. really boring. this is truly one of my most appalling traits. i will repent
• on that note i have a catholic guilt complex that is obvious when you start noticing it
• if i was insanely rich i would probably have a collection of ornate knives
• nerd about roleplaying games, especially baldur's gate 3 and skyrim
• i'm terrible at taking care of myself, not in a "i don't work out and eat unhealthy" way, but more in a "i am a dying houseplant without water and sunlight way." having basic human needs is extremely dumb imo and ideally ignoring them will make me become a formless entity

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀𝔦𝔦. — green flags

• will always help my classmates by letting them look at my assignments, explaining concepts to them, and sending them research they need
• doesn't use snapchat, tiktok, or instagram (i have an account on the latter but i check it like once a week, if that, to like my friends' pictures)
• reads books (not often but that still puts me above average i feel)
• i don't talk shit about my exes and usually only mention them neutrally or favourably
• humble and doesn't brag about anything (although this could be a red flag to some people since i usually deflect compliments, so that's subjective)
• doesn't look down on anyone's taste in music, movies, books, etc.
• refills the water purifier after i use it (i'm accepting marriage applications rn)
• takes spiders outside instead of killing them
• no addictions besides caffeine, i only drink and smoke weed at parties or concerts
• goes to thrift stores and generally knows how to / tries to save money
• will listen to people yap about extremely niche and nerdy topics for hours. a little bubble tea and i'm sat, give me your ted talk
• i'm not judgmental of people based on their style or their body type. i notice this is surprisingly common but it just doesn't register to me usually. probably too busy either looking into their eyes or avoiding eye contact
• i can draw (in theory) so i can draw candid sketches of you making breakfast and sleeping on the couch if you're into that kind of thing
• i remember a lot of small facts about people and what they like
• when i'm drunk or high i don't become flirty or aggressive, more like a confused child that can't stop talking
• i say thank you to the bus driver (i think this might be a canadian thing?)
• i'm very forgiving and don't take people's actions toward me personally (perhaps to a fault) so if you would like to take advantage of my doormat tendencies it's chill dw
