Dear Shade,
I think I accidentally trauma-bonded with my situationship. Is that… bad?
Also, they just started calling me “their light in the dark” and I don’t know if I should kiss them or run.
Help.

Dear Confused,
First: yes.
Second: obviously yes.

Trauma-bonding is not a foundation. It’s emotional duct tape. Temporary, messy, and liable to snap mid-apocalypse.

If someone calls you “their light in the dark” — ask yourself this:
Are you a beacon… or just a convenient torch they can drop when the path changes?

Kiss them if you want the story.
Run if you want the ending.
Do both if you’re me.

Yours (but not really)
Shade
