The way they communicate without talking
Something I noticed while rereading The Guy She Was Interested in Wasn’t a Guy at All is how much the story uses eye contact as emotional language between Mitsuki and Oosawa. Whenever they’re fully looking at each other, that’s usually when they’re being the most honest. Even in quieter moments, they’re constantly stealing glances at one another, and it really reinforces the idea that they’re each other’s safe space. It’s such a small detail, but it makes their connection feel incredibly intimate and genuine.
But what makes it even better (and more painful) is that the opposite is also true. Whenever Oosawa is lying, hiding something, or feeling down, she tends to close her eyes or look away so Mitsuki won’t notice. Mitsuki does the exact same thing, though she usually just avoids eye contact altogether instead of fully shutting down. Their eyes basically become tells for their emotional state.
And the heartbreaking part is that they both know this about each other.
So there are moments where one of them realizes the other is lying or hurting, but pretends not to notice because acknowledging it would force a confrontation neither of them is ready for. It creates this quiet feeling of betrayal, not because the lies are huge, but because eye contact is tied so strongly to honesty in their relationship. The second they look away, the other immediately understands something’s wrong.
I just think it’s such a clever and subtle way to show emotional intimacy. They know each other so well that even avoidance becomes communication :(

How do I break up with my gf
We’ve been dating for around 6 months, and lately I’ve realized we genuinely do not match at all. We only see each other like once a week because we’re both dying from final exams, but even outside of that… we’re just completely different people.
I’m super into nature, sports, hiking, random outdoor stuff. She’s very city/nightlife/party-oriented. And physically affectionate. VERY physically affectionate. Meanwhile I’ve been subconsciously avoiding kissing her because I realized I can only really do that sincerely when I genuinely romantically like someone, and I don’t think I do anymore (or ever did my bad)…
Now here’s where the lore gets catastrophically worse.
The only reason I even met her was because of my longtime friend/crush.
And when I say crush, I mean FOUR YEAR situationship-level emotional damage type crush.
We slept in the same bed, kissed, said I love you to each other, EVERY INTERACTION WAS absolutely NOT friend-coded behavior FROM OUR FIRST MEETING!!!
So one day she invites me to a party and I go because I’m still painfully in love with her. Then I get there and she introduces me to her NEW GIRLFRIEND she met on Hinge literally like a week earlier.
Brother.
I actually think my soul left my body.
Anyways I got devastated, made terrible impulsive decisions, went way too far with her best friend at the party, and somehow that turned into us dating a month later.
Now fast forward 6 months and I’m realizing: we don’t work romantically at all, I think I got into this relationship while emotionally wrecked, breaking up with her means losing my original friend too (speaking from eye experience)
AND HERE’S THE WORST PART:
The Hinge girl eventually broke up with my crush and now apparently she’s basically blacklisted from the friend group.
So now I’m sitting here wondering if the same thing is gonna happen to me.
Like how do you even approach a breakup when the relationship came out of a messy emotional rebound situation tied directly to your friend group?? And I really want to tell my friend my real feelings toward her, BUT IM GONNA BE SEEN AS À PLAYER THAT HOMIE HOPS, HELL NOOOOOO

Rather go to Mont Blanc (France) than the Bahamas 🤷
Do I even need to explain? No équipement (we got kindve cold ngl), just our sleeping bags, but don’t forget the baguette!!! If you’re looking for a place to travel to summer, scratch everything in your list and go there. YOU WON’T REGRET IT. (Also I saw some cows and mountain goats 😌)
