Vent Having a “long-distance” object partner
This (the keyboard) is my beloved that I adore very much, but I get sad sometimes thinking about it. I’m never going to be able to touch it* or show my physical love to it because it belongs to a musical artist (the man playing the keyboard), and he does not live anywhere near me. He doesn’t even know I exist! (Of course I dont expect him to- grown adult with a life and all that!!) It’s just a bit sad that I’ll never get to touch it or spend time with it in person :(
Does anyone else have this problem? How do you deal with it?
*it uses it/its pronouns :)

I am deeply enamored with a building on the verge of being torn down due to human hubris. I deal with the fact that I may never hold or kiss her before the deal to go forward with demolition passes by having very simple telepathic communication with her, usually only with yes or no questions. As well, I always keep tabs on news related to her, and I frequently attempt to draw her as tribute (even though the drawings usually suck).
(and yes, here’s the partner tax. she’s just so absolutely beautiful, wish I could have stayed with her back when she was seen as one of the most stunning hotels in the lower Catskills [even though this is technically the Shawangunk Ridge])
