Not being funny, but if Lance were serious with his affections toward Allura (and I mean in love serious), would he really be saying,‘I’m not ready to settle down’ and ‘There are a lot of fish in the sea’?
One thing we know from the comics, is that Lance is serious about love. He wants to be in love, and he wants to be equally loved in return. Allura has never shown signs of romantic recuperation. She has never returned Lance’s flirtations, nor responded with anything less than disgruntlement and mild irritation from his advances.
I find Lance’s words ‘I’m not ready to settle down’, very interesting. To me, it tells me that Lance doesn’t feel emotionally ready to commit to a long-term relationship with a loved one, because he hasn’t found someone he feels he is in love with. If Allura were the woman that Lance had totally, and completely, devoted his heart to, then I would be certain in saying that he wouldn’t even look at anyone else.
Lance is serious about love, real love. We know that he has a deep understanding of it. He knows and values the commitment behind love, and from the show, comics and vlog, we have seen him only ever playing the field, meaning he has never truly fallen for any of the girls he was flirted with, including Allura.
When Lance does fall in love (and we know he does have a end-game romance from interviews), he will mature and feel emotionally ready to settle down with that person. “But I think there is, to some extent, at some point you’ll find that one person that above all you kind of fall in love with a little bit and realise that it’s nice to have that one person than kind of just going all over the place… He’ll mature in all ways.’” – Jeremy Shada
What have we heard from Lance’s mouth? ‘Sometimes what we want, isn’t what we get’.
What have we heard from Lauren? ‘He (Lance) might look for it, but what he might look for is not necessarily what he needs. I think he needs someone who’s self-assured…so that he can kind of become that same person and know himself.’
In other words, Lance needs someone;
“Self-assured.” – Lauren.
“It doesn’t matter where I come from. I know who I am.” – Keith S2E8
Who can help him step up and mature as a person.
“Keith goes, ‘No, dude. You are super important to the team. You should stop thinking all that because we need you.’” – Jeremy Shada.
“And Lance? Leave the math, to Pidge.” – Keith to Lance S3E
Who has been there all along
“Yeah, the show’s going for a slow-burn.” – Jeremy Shada.
“We used to be in the same class at the Garrison?” – Lance S1E1.
“We had a bonding moment. I cradled you in my arms!” – Keith S1E6
Someone who will treat him as his equal, listen and respect him.
“I respect it’s (the Black Lion) decision, and you should to.” – Lance to Keith, S3E2.
“Yeah, you kinda did. But now we gotta fix it…You’re right. Let’s go.” – Lance and Keith S3E3
“Someone very different from what he was going for in the beginning.” – Dreamworks.
“We were, like, rivals. You know, Lance and Keith, neck and neck.” – Lance to Keith S1E1

acting gay is trendy for straight celebrities because they know it will gain them fans and money. gay people will buy things simply because the person making the product is gay. we hype other gay people. this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it opened the door to straight people profiting off of gay people by partaking in overperformative allyship. allyship so extreme it seems that the ally in question is gay. this is manipulative and homophobic. and it hurts to be fucking honest.
like… I can’t get over the fact miss Lipa wore a shirt with “homo” bedazzled on it as a straight person. All of the flags, and the rainbow clothes and all the kissing her friends was because she wanted our money. I’m disgusted.
It’s so frustrating how celebrities think 2 women kissing is a game or some joke. It’d be real nice if female celebrities would stop trivializing gay affection. It’s so fucked. It is also fetishistic. Like they act as if 2 women kissing is some spectacle… something sexy and exciting to post on Instagram or Snapchat. I’m really fucking glad my love is a joke and seen as ~exciting~ and sexy for others consumption. I’m real fucking tired
I am making this plea anonymously because my online identity
is tied to my real life in significant ways.
I am a black lesbian who has lived in fear of her violently
abusive and homophobic father for over two decades. He has been physically and
emotionally violent since my infancy, and he began to sexually abuse me in 2015.
He does not know I am a lesbian, and if he finds out, he will not hesitate to kill me. He has attempted to kill me several
times over the course of my life, and after a recent attempt, I have realized
that I can no longer put off escaping. More details about the abuse I have
suffered are available here if needed.
I initially planned to leave in a year’s time to hide away enough money for rent, prepare what I need, and give myself the best chance of a secure and permanent escape – other women who have tried to flee my family have been hunted by my father and his brothers and dragged back. My father forces financial control on me and other
members of my family, and so I do not have enough saved. However, my living
situation has become imminently dangerous, and so I must dramatically shorten
my timeline.
Please help me leave and stay gone. All I want is to live in
peace.
please spread this and donate if you’re able to. she’s a dear friend who has supported me as well as others through rough times, and she needs our support. 💖
