Do you find that you fight with her often/she fights with you often? Or are you both too nervous to raise any contentions about each other because of this specific connection you have? Heading into the second week of a relationship that's similar, holding out hope that things go well for you and yours.
>>9052406
is that the pigeon girl?
>>9052702
we met while i was in my MFA program. went to a top school. she was undergrad. we met at a bar during a reading. the readers were shit, beginning of first year, so I didn't know anyone. sat at the bar alone with my drink, notice this chick next to me. cute, blonde, with intense, quiet vibe. thought she was in MFA program too, but turned out to be an undergrad who liked to crash graduate readings to see if anything good was read. We made kinda awkward small talk for a bit and then she left abruptly. I thought she was maybe a little put off or something, but it turned out she had just been nervous talking to me because she had seen me before and already had a crush on me. It was super cute honestly.

we fight a lot yeah. about typical relationship stuff. we're both strongly opinionated people and both value our alone time a lot, so that causes a lot of fights. she is also definitely jealous/insecure about herself sometimes, and at the same time she is very strong willed and smart and manic, so she can be a huge bitch during our fights. we clash a lot, and it has definitely made staying in the relationship extremely hard sometimes. i often ask myself when things are bad, "why the hell am I doing this? why am I putting up with this? I've had way better/more peaceful relationships in the past..."
ultimately though, we understand each other really well, and the connection we both have as people trying to do something great with their art, and the fact that we both practice poetry, is a huge factor in why we are together. When she and I are both happy, we are really happy, happier than I've been with previous girlfriends. She is one of my first readers, and I respect her skill and her critical eye immensely. Keeps me on my toes and can talk intensely and intelligently about the same authors I'm into. And she is hella cute, so that helps.
But yeah. Not the most easy-going, peaceful relationship I've had.
>>9052406
they are everywhere
>>9052406
>where to meet /lit/ women?
at MFA program or by moving to a Lit city and falling in with the local lit crowd (San Francisco, Berkeley/Oakland, New York, Seattle, Portland Oregon, are a few).
>>9052406
>also where to meet /lit/ women?

Don't be a fucking creeper. Just go to like writers group things and try not to be an MRA douche.
Also, dating apps.
Anyone else here infatuated with these people but very quickly irritated by them, also self loathing

hadn't considered this before, but it would be pretty nice to have a gf really into poetry

I once dated a girl like this. She was really into that expansive, world-building sort of fantasy writing. She had this insanely detailed universe that she'd been creating her entire life, none of it written down, just all in her head. It was great. I'd just ask her to explain some minute plot point and she'd talk endlessly for like an hour. Took the pressure off me. Only problem was responding because a lot of what she said didn't make sense.
>like to browse lit sometimes
>dont read as much
>last book I read was Confederacy of Dunces
anyway I almost dated a girl that was into poetry but she broke my heart.
She lives in California, I live in Connecticut.
visited her twice then she broke it off.
really makes you think

thats literaly what ive been trying
young people just dont go to church anymore unless theyre inbred. it sucks.
>>9052406
Go to grad school in the humanities (which you should be doing anyway) and flirt with your students. Extra plus it establishes your authority position from day 1. Extra extra plus if you go to a good enough grad school and she's undergrad she's likely from money and can comfy your life up.
>>9052716
Oh shit I think it is. I wrote a very bad poem about her, but those images are so compelling that I think a good one might be written.
>>9053177
nice dubs
probably should have done this t bh
I met mine on tinder
>>9052406
I like her
I started dating a guy i thought was /lit/ then he showed me some poems he wrote about me and they were horrible horrible
>>9053050
hey what town
>>dont read as much
oh nevermind
I just want someone whose perfect body I can touch with my mind
>tfw no gf at all.
>>9053223
Y-You can write abominable poems and still be fundamentally /lit/ - r-right? Perhaps you are only honing your skills. This is what I tell myself to get to sleep, anyways.
>>9053219
>tfw religious but seriously attracted to obviously damaged girls like this
its not even a savior complex, it just seems like theres actually something going on in their heads...
>>9052406
>>tfw no weirdo poetic gf
I just want a stable normie girl. I don't want to deal with a female version of me. No, thank you.
>>9053304
get a practice gf
>>9053280
I think that you are very wrong-headed in your interpretations, but then that comes as no surprise because you are religious. For one thing, I see no reason to think that that girl is "obviously damaged," but then you are blinded by the gleam of the ciborium, so of course you cannot comprehend simple austere and yet most worldly pleasure of feeding pigeons on a breezy day. For another, I find actually that what makes that image so attractive is a delectable vacancy in her expression. The less that a woman is burdened with thought, the more beautiful she becomes. Or better, her beauty becomes synonymous with her thought, as is the case with an excellent dancer. Helen was certainly also a kind of artist and philosopher, as Yeats has proven. This is true of men also, but I am ambivalent about thoughtless men because of other considerations. For one thing, a thoughtless man, or a man whose thought is the same as his beauty-in-action, is a most dangerous thing, and is likely to become either a criminal or a leader who has grand successes at first but afterwards brings a catastrophe on his followers. But perhaps this should come as no surprise: women simply tend to be better than men, regardless of how much thinking they do.

THE simple and austere and yet most worldly pleasure*
Also, it seems that your God has confirmed my philosophy by granting me quads.
>>9053333
there are scars on her wrist bro, adjacent to a razor blade tattoo at that
>>9053348
Pigeon's talons are sharp, you know, and it's not clear to me that the tattoo is supposed to be a razor blade. If it is, that is certainly in bad taste, and so you see my theory is still borne out: she is burdened by malicious thoughts, and therefore that has become manifest as a grotesque tattoo, as if through a natural process.
>>9053333
>For one thing, I see no reason to think that that girl is "obviously damaged,"
Are you blind? Look at those arms.
>>9053355
>Pigeon's talons are sharp, you know
Oh okay this is just cheeky boy fun time. Ya got me.
on the real tho i cant believe girls still cut themselves
i thought that was for 00's teens
/lit/ grill here i met my bf on /vg/
were 2 years into our long distance but we visit each other every 3 months or so. its going v well happiest weve been kinda meme
but sometimes i wish hes more lit so we can read smth and analyze it tgt, come up with stupid theories and write each other shitty poems and cringe about it but im happy so im not complaining
also, yea p much been said but theres plenty of smart lit qts in my classes
>>9053358
Ah, no! you must not bother me with such mundanities, anyway: it is a superb image, and that is enough. Do none here know me or my way of thinking? I must rejoice beyond the confines of time, though the world be repelled by my joy, and in its coarseness know not what I mean.
>>9053365
I am not aware of there ever having been any other time.
>>9052733
That's pretty cute desu
>>9052406
you don't want to meet /lit/ women
they're so hopped up on ideology they don't know how to be people anymore.
>>9053280
>tfw attacted to damaged girls because you yourself are also damaged
where do i meet girls like this when i'm out of school and live in suburbia?
>>9053389
Nigga, you might have a case of the 'tism.
>>9053050

>>9053577
You're not damaged. You're just really lame and unlikable.

University
A large city
Cafes and book stores.
Preferably all three together.
My cute younger coworker (I work at a cafe, so yes, book stores and cafes) just opened up to me that she is a budding poet and likes to read poetry. I haven't read poetry in a while and I don't know if I should go for her.
99% of girls of any literary inclination 18-30 years of age are cultural marxists. They gorge themselves on books by blacks and women about blacks and women. College has made me much more receptive of those who satisfy themselves with the mild evils of YA instead.
like attracts like
there's a reason chads consider girls like this weird and wouldn't do anything with them besides fuck them once or twice.but damn I think she's hot too :^)

>>9053763
Ask her out. pussy does wonders for the mind and spirit.
>>9052406
dont do it, its hard as shit to get one that isnt bipolar or borderline, and the ones that are sound minded are way out of your league.
Had two bp wifes and a bunch of lovers , all film makers and writers and working in the business ive only met a couple of wife material girls.
