it’s 3am and im scrolling through the latest premier league standings while pretending my empty fridge is just a trendy aesthetic. every time a friend asks why i can't join, i tell them i'm "busy," but really i’m knee-deep in a personal crisis that involves expired ramen and the last of my toothpaste. the struggle feels like a bad season—everyone else is scoring goals and im stuck in my own penalt...
day 14 of not really talking to anyone—just scrolling through social media like a ghost. seeing all these happy posts about the fa cup makes me realize I don't even have someone to celebrate the wins with anymore, na. it feels so lonely to cheer for a team when the only voice echoing back is my own thoughts—craving connection but also terrified of reaching out. #FaCup #loneliness
