I'm not sure if I'm the only one who does this but I treat my connection with my f/o as a spiritual/real thing. I know there are tons of reasons for selfshipping for example: coping mechanisms, simping for characters, loneliness, genuine connection, and of course just for fun! But for me I really do believe that my f/o exists on a different plane of existence and has a connection with me via an actually relationship. I treat them as my real life partner. I know not everyone agrees with something like this as it is a little out there. But this is what selfshipping is to me. I love my main f/o dearly as if he was actually here with me in this world and can't see myself having a relationship with a "real" person as I've done in the past anymore. I'm very committed to my f/o in this relationship we've developed.

How it feelz to have merch of your F/O

"I HAVE YOU NOW"

Noooo don't imagine kissing your f/o all over their face until they're a blushing mess. That would be so bad if you did, who knows what the consequences would be!!

Don't imagine them doing it to you either, under any circumstances!!!

Your f/o is fine, btw.

That thing that happened to them?

It was just a nightmare.

Imagine

You wake up in the middle of the night, sitting up in the bed with a gasp.

You look around the dark room. It was just a dream... Right?

The warm body next to you, and the soft snores calms you down.

As you sit there, your f/o turns in bed. They say your name in a raspy voice.

"It was just a nightmare, my love. Go back to sleep now."

They wrap an arm around you and pulls you close.You calm down when feeling their warm breath against your neck, and the reassuring words they whisper when they fall back asleep:

"I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere."

🦋💕🦋💕🦋💕

Tired of seeing your f/o suffer when watching a show/playing a game/reading a book etc etc gang - RISE!

polyam selfshippers.. imagine this as your polycule

imagine your f/o dreaming of you— they wake up in a cold sweat because of how realistic it felt. their heart is beating so fast and trying to maintain their breaths isn’t enough to calm them down. your f/o’s cheeks are flushed at the sole thought of you being so close to them, them being able to finally hold you.

type in “my f/o is so” and then let ur keyboard finish it. have fun! <3

proship dni >:[

I replayed the game my main F/O is (I won't be able to finish it cause I have issues with one of the minigames), mainly cause I got a crisis & I also wanted to hear him & I'm obsessed w his og voice.

Deuce Spade is the type of boyfriend that would be so happy if you join him for a run. He loves having you with him during workouts, but understands if you turn him down. Imagine how overjoys he is when he's not even the one that asked, but you said you'd be happy to join him!

Well....hope you can keep up with this man's stamina. He chuckles as he looks over his shoulder and sees you running behind. He's only getting warmed up after a few miles, and you seem to be winded by the first one. He stops, turning to you with a wide smile, as he motions with his arms for you to politely hurry up, he's waiting! What really surprises him was you practically throwing yourself on him, dramatically gasping for air

"Deucey~ My legs already hurt~"

Well, you were the one that chose to accompany him during his run, no? Eh, not like he minds carrying you home if your legs hurt that much <3

I'm curious self shippers, what's your favorite quote from your f/o? what phrases of theirs really sticks with you?
