the-shipping-rink:

This is for all the self ship blogs that aren’t popular. The
ones who don’t get called peoples OTP, the ones who don’t get a bunch of asks
or notes.

This is for the self shippers that ship with obscure
characters or obscure franchises, who ship with OCs that no one knows.

This is for the ones who don’t create, or who create a
little. The ones who have art that isn’t the kind that blows people away.

This is for the ones who share a f/o with another self
shipper and who don’t get noticed.

This is for everyone who has ever felt that because there’s
no one in their corner, they are somehow lesser.

 This is me saying, that
is a lie.

Your popularity does not affect how much your f/o loves you.

The quality of what you create does not affect how much your
f/o loves you.

The quantity of what you create does not affect how much
your f/o loves you.

Someone else shipping with your f/o does not affect how much your f/o loves you.

So keep self shipping.

Because guess what? Your f/o loves you.
