These are the cookie crumbs for my depreciating mind.

First Impressions

First impressions.
They seem to be harder these days.
See these words?
Of course, you and I both have eyes.
But can you actually read them?
Probably.
But that is where it is lost.
Lost in translation to say the least.
I have a very thick top layer.
And I will give you it.
It is the deeper layers that you will have to try for.
But by the time you absorb the first, will you be gone?
Perhaps…
Especially with each encounter being like this.
A simple word here and there…
Signed on
Signed off
Not a way to be me.
It’s like a mirror.
You see yourself,
But take that mirror and photograph it.
Not the same.
But if you keep the image in your mind from the mirror,
Go out and exchange your image with others…
Then you are you and they see…
You can be…
No image…
No commercial…
No buddy icon…
No logging off…
No Afk…
No abbreviation for this encounter…
Just raw truth,
Which is a hump itself…
As you will now have to absorb me.
Through my eyes I see the world,
Through yours can you see mine?

Intro to Lost in Txtlation

Welcome to ‘Lost in Txtlation’, a podcast delving beyond ‘I love you’, with a focus on why Love is Not Enough. Hosted by me, Tristan Pope, who believes love is an action. The show explores online dating trends and delves into my many “stream of conscious” threads of thought, a ‘choose your own adventure’ of sorts, as you navigate through topics on love, relationships, romance, compromise, and self-discovery. Each episode sparks conversations, deepening our understanding of love’s intricate puzzle.

Whether you’re navigating the waters of a relationship, seeking inspiration, or simply curious about the musings of someone who has pondered the intricacies of love, this podcast is for you. I shares snippets of my own stream of consciousness, touching on moments that have resonated with listeners, helping them escape toxic relationships, appreciate their own ideals of love, and feel less alone in their journey.

Join me as we embark on a journey exploring my thoughts on the above in the pursuit of self-discovery. Each episode is a chapter in this narrative, offering insights that have sparked conversations, debates, and a deeper understanding of the intricate puzzle that is love. So, whether you’re in search of guidance or simply eager for an open conversation in audio format, ‘Lost in Txtlation’ invites you to explore the diverse facets of dating, love, and relationships.

So again, think of this as a choose your own adventure. The breadcrumbs of a depreciating mind, but instead of in a formation to make the path home, scattered about the forest ready for immediate consumption. So feel free to skip or jump around to an entry that interests or perhaps resonates with you. This is my journal, unabated, stream of consciousness, with the intent of another reading/listening to it. A conversation to myself, waiting for you to respond.

Feel free to use the Q/A section of this podcast if listening on Spotify.

You can also go to Lostintxtlation.com where there is an Ask Me Anything section. Here you can ask a any questions (anonymously or not) about this Podcast, your experiences, or a relationships of your own. Think of it as us having a conversation, where I spoke longer and now I am waiting for you to respond.

You can also contact me via email lostintxtlation(at)gmail.com or the contact form at lostintxtlation.com if you wish to be a guest on the Podcast. I plan to do more open discussions in the future, a conversation between two people going through this strange dating world, so feel free to reach out!

I consider my writing to be an open discussion, not something set in stone. I often pick a side of the fence, not because I want to be right or wrong, but to not teter and being very open to hearing about the other side, no matter what color the grass may be. Feel free to ask me anything! I’m here to listen! What’s on your mind?

I think this is the perfect medium for my writing, as it allows me to interject my inflection in a world lost in txtlations.

Welcome to the podcast where love is more than just a word—it’s an ongoing exploration of our own self conscious and self consciousness.

There is a pre-requisite to my writing, now turned podcast that I think I should read prior as well, so here it is.
