Pretty Lonesome with Madeline Argy

this week i talk about friendship, outgrowing people, and why sometimes the person you're actually trying to get away from is an old version of yourself. i get into friendships ending without closure, being terrified of rejection, and the fact that our perception of ourselves might be completely wrong. sometimes being afraid of how someone will perceive you often reveals more about how you already perceive yourself than what they're actually thinking. basically maybe no one knows what they're looking at, including you. enjoy love u

why i'm not scared of being perceived anymore

this week i talk about friendship and why making friends in your 20s feels so fucking complicated. i get into wanting a friend group for basically the first time in my life, the difference between attracting chaotic people and actually choosing to keep them around, and why someone feeling instantly familiar isn't always a good sign. turns out feeling like home and actually being safe might be two completely different things. enjoy love u

How To Cope As A Useless Lonely Rat

this week i talk about why i've slowly stopped centering romance without really meaning to. i get into having crushes as a way of filling an emotional void, where all that obsessive energy actually comes from, and why i've started redirecting it back into my own life instead. we also talk about purpose, learning for the sake of learning, language, fear, and the weird realization that maybe the things we chase in other people have been inside us the whole time. enjoy love u

why i stopped obsessing over people

this week i come to the recent realization that i have control issues, which is deeply inconvenient because i genuinely thought i was one of the least controlling people. i get into the difference between trying to control other people and trying to control yourself, why fear makes certainty feel so comforting, and how i slowly realized i've been mistaking reassurance for safety. we also talk about how it relates to OCD and emetophobia, trusting your own judgment after people let you down, and why i keep sending myself to the metaphorical dungeon every time life surprises me. turns out maybe the goal isn't having more control but maybe learning how to live without needing it. oh and we also get into ACOTAR. enjoy love u

i have control issues

this week i talk about why saying no has always been so hard for me and what it’s cost me. i get into abstinence, therapy, relationships, and this pattern of changing yourself to fit other people's expectations. I talk about self-betrayal, the shame of staying in things too long, and why forgiving yourself for what you tolerated might be the only way to actually move on. also a quick recap of Euphoria and why i think it lost the plot. enjoy love u

sex and the power of saying no

this week i talk about moving to new york, feeling completely untethered, and what happens when you finally reach the version of life you always imagined for yourself and realize you still have no clue what comes next. i get into fear, uncertainty, why i think some of the best things in my life came from periods where i felt the most lost, and this idea of chasing your fears instead of spending your whole life running from them. we also talk about heartbreak as redirection, manifesting feelings instead of goals, and why younger you doesn’t always get to decide the rest of your life for you. enjoy love u

chase your fears

this week I am joined by joyce and we talk about how we became friends, the weirdness of fashion week, missing flights because of heartbreak, dropping out of school, situationships that should’ve ended six months earlier, and why having a crush is sometimes just projecting an entire personality onto a man who barely exists. we also get into dick print analysis, emetophobia, celibacy, coachella anxiety, and whether love is actually about the person or just the feeling itself, so really this girl chat episode has it all! enjoy love u

yapping with flowerovlove!

this week i talk about grace, forgiveness, and why i don’t think they’re the same thing at all. i get into this idea that forgiveness is supposed to mean you’re healed, and how that never really made sense to me because i can understand someone, even feel compassion for them, and still be hurt by what they did. i talk about trying to intellectualize my way out of pain, why that doesn’t work, and the moment i realized i’ve been giving everyone else space to be human but not myself. this one’s about letting both things exist at once, peace without pretending, compassion without self-abandonment, and figuring out what i actually owe people after they hurt me. enjoy, love u

grace and forgiveness

From dinosaur documentaries to a TSA encounter that became an analogy for friendship, this week's episode helped me understand that everything is kind of a projection. i talk about living out of a suitcase, missing my flight, and falling down a rabbit hole of evolution, extinction, and how nothing we think is permanent actually is. then i get into people, why we get so triggered by certain traits in others, and how most of what we feel is just a reflection of something in us. this one is really about detachment, perspective, and realizing not everything is as personal as it feels. as always, love u
