humansofnewyork:

We talked for a few minutes. She told me that she’d had a plan to join the Navy out of high school, but that fell apart because her knees were bad. She told me that she’d just finished working a 12 hour shift on a food truck. She told me that she’d moved to New York for no reason, just to get out of Kansas. “But I’m so glad I came,” she said.
“Why’s that?” I asked. Her eyes began to water.
“Because I’m so in love with a girl right now.”

wittingpolyamory:

polynotes:

This chart is pretty quick and simple, but I like this basic point it makes: single, partnered, and married people can all be available, but they also all may not be.

Wouldn’t it be nice if people started thinking less in terms of “Are you single?” and more in terms of “Are you available?”  Not all single people are available to/interested in starting new relationships…and plenty of partnered people are interested in starting new relationships. But even aside from the polyamory angle, it would reduce a lot of headache for people to at least decouple “single” and “available”.
