mtg helped me live again
i don’t even know how to explain this so bare with me. i recently just went through probs one of the worst breakups of my life. i know all the lame shit of time heals, i’ll love and lose again, but holy fuck rediving into mtg has healed me.
my ex and i always used to play mtg together my sister taught me and i taught him. however even when we would play, he would constantly cheat, lie about the way abilities would work and just overall bully tf outta me playing the game. I thought i would have a hard time going back to playing but i didn’t. we had a huge collection together and i only took the decks i had made (about 5 outta the 12 or so we had) and half of the bulk & my binder. i’ve been replenishing my own personal bulk & making my own decks again. maybe its just something in my control and it makes me feel better, the distraction of counting and strategizing cards together, new sleeves, new playing mats. cards hes never played with me against. decks he never knew i could build and also not have to cry over someone going out of their way to push me down. i really just wonder if mtg has also helped others like this i know im not alone in this feeling. even people at LGS have bullshit w me about this and idk it helps.
i love magic
and i love the community.
so thanks guys
