  • What was the common thread from when you met the person? How did you hit it off with them?

    So I’ve been married for 12 years, and we’ve been together since college, where we met. And my wife’s basically the only person I interact with socially. And I think I’m straining my marriage by using her as my crutch. I’ve kind of relied on her for literally all of my socializing, like tagging along with her and her friends. But I’ve recently realized that that’s not healthy and I need someone to talk and interact with independent of her. But it’s really hard.

    It’s very hard to forget that this character is a middle schooler, and if you call her your waifu, you are a problem.

    I have no idea who this character is from, but just from that picture I would have no idea how old they would be intending to represent. I could be from 12 to like 25. If there’s more context in the show, sure. But that’s kind of my point.

    so it writes teen characters, but then puts them in INCREDIBLY adult situations. It’s easy to either overlook or ignore this character being a high school student when they’re a badass knight, or princess in some other universe, ya know?

    Exactly this. This is what bothers me in general about people clutching pearls over characters ages. In general, the only way many of these characters actually resemble teenagers or children is that they’re small, or that the creator happens to be explicit about their age. But otherwise they’re characters created by adults, voiced by adults, written by adults, and otherwise in general portrayed very adult.
