So yesterday I was really drunk. I was out with some friends and I misgendered my trans friend. I don’t know if they noticed or not, but my sister pulled me aside and told me what I did wrong. I feel sick to my stomach because I just realized. We are not, close but they have mentioned their pronouns before so I feel horrible. Enough time has passed that I feel like it will do more harm if I bring it up so I seriously don’t know what to do. This is a learning moment for me but I still want to show them that I respect their pronouns and fully accept them. I know the first step to continue using their correct pronouns, but I genuinely feel like shit. Any advice?

Edit: guys the reason I’m apprehensive about bringing it up again is because 1) I don’t wanna remind them 2) because I don’t remember exactly what I said when I was drunk and 3) I don’t even know if they remember.

So my friends and I have been through shit together and we wanna get matching tattoos to symbolize it. They would probably be simple black ink, thin, and no more than an inch. I’m thinking my ankle.

The issue is I’m going to the beach in 3 days and the don’t wanna fuck it up if I get in the water. Should I wait till after the trip?

It sounds weird but I don’t like to read romance books at work in front of my coworkers (receptionist job lol) because I don’t want them to be judgy.

I also like to envision characters for myself and don’t like them to be thrown at me on the cover.

Books like binding 13, the very irregular society of witches, and Liana Cincotti books are some of my favorites. I’m not really into Romantasy but that’s just because Ive never tried. I’m willing to expand my horizons.

I’m not a huge fan of heavy smut/spice, but if it is part of the plot like BOT, I really don’t mind.
