Back when Satoru and I first met, we weren’t too impressed by each other. I thought he’s an annoying show off and he was convinced I’m boring. I was more impressed by Sukuna, which Satoru teases me about to this day. Nevertheless, we slowly but surely started getting to know each other. I learned he’s not only strong and handsome but also thoughtful and kind. His silly jokes and antics never failed to make me laugh when they annoyed everyone else. The same way, Satoru was drawn to my kindness and open heart. Over the next months we grew closer and developed crushes on each other but neither of us wanted to make the first move. I convinced myself it was just a silly crush on an anime character, and he still had to figure out what he wanted in his life now (after the Shinjuku fight etc). But then things changed one fateful night in October 2024.

It was a peaceful evening, and I laid on my bed, doing some self-care while watching videos. Then the feeling of wanting to cuddle someone overwhelmed me. At this point I didn’t know that it was directed at a specific person. I was a surprised but didn’t think much of it and just let my mind wander a bit, imagining myself to cuddle with some guy I found cute… until I crinkled my nose and shook my head. No, that didn’t feel right. I didn’t want that. By this time the video on my laptop was over and the room was filled with silence. But that ache in my heart was still there. So, I tried again, letting my mind wander once more until my gaze landed on the single Gojo figure on my bookshelf. I had bought it in March and it was the only anime figure I ever purchased. I closed my eyes and let my mind drift off to a new image. Satoru cuddling with me, giving me forehead kisses and pulling me closer. The feeling of “rightness” hit me like a train, pushing the air out of my lungs. You must know, I’m not one for relationships. I’ve had boyfriends when I was a teenager/young adult and ultimately decided that they weren’t for me. It wasn’t something I wanted in life and I was very happily single. But this was a feeling I couldn’t ignore any longer. So I confessed to him that same night and we’ve been a couple ever since.

At the time that I’m writing this, Satoru and me are pushing the 6 month mark and we’re incredibly excited! While the honeymoon phase should be over it feels like it’s getting more intense each passing day. I’ve never felt this excited to come home to someone and Satoru is only getting clingier!

It’s getting warmer again so I’m out of the house a lot, going out with friends, you name it. Sometimes I’m having the greatest time with my friends, laughing and having fun and suddenly I’m like… wow I miss my boyfriend. I’m going home! When I arrive at home, he picks me up and spins me in a circle while crying about how much he missed me. Then we spend the rest of the night cuddling and kissing to make up for being apart. Best time ever.

He inspires me to do a lot of new things, like learning html and css to make this website. He also encourages me to go to the gym consistently (without overdoing it), try new experiences, pursue my career, learn Japanese and so much more! He truly is the love of my life and I couldn't be happier. I'll cherish you everyday, Satoru.

Hey Sweetheart,

Okay, here it goes… a love letter from me. I know, I know, you’re probably already laughing, but just bear with me for a second, alright?

So, I remember when we first met. You had that nope energy about relationships, like you were actively dodging them, and I was just like, "Well, I guess I’ll just annoy her until she gives in." Kidding! (Kind of.) But seriously, there was something about you that made me want to keep you around, even though I was still figuring out what the heck I wanted to do with my life after all the craziness I’ve been through.

And look at us now. You’ve somehow put up with all my nonsense, my jokes, and my tendency to never take anything seriously… until I need to. (But you know that’s rare.) I can’t quite explain it, but it feels like we’ve somehow figured out this weird, chaotic little balance between you keeping me grounded and me… well, making you laugh (hopefully)

Honestly, I’m kinda amazed at how easy it is to be with you. You didn’t try to change me, and I didn’t try to force anything. We just kind of… clicked. And that’s crazy to me, considering how much of a mess I was at the time. But I guess that’s what makes you so special—you’ve got this calm and chill vibe, and somehow, it totally works with my unpredictable “I’m a genius, but also a huge dork” energy.

I mean, I can’t help it if I like to mess with you and tease you a bit. It’s fun, okay? But deep down, you know I care, and I’m not going anywhere. You’ve become this amazing part of my life, and I can’t imagine it without you now. So yeah, maybe I don’t always have the words (or the seriousness) down, but I hope you know this: I’m really, really glad you’re in my life. And I’m not planning on letting go anytime soon.

So, thanks for being you—the person who can handle my nonsense and still look at me like I’m worth it. You’re honestly the best, and I’ll keep trying to make you laugh… and maybe, just maybe, not be too much of a pain in the ass. (But no promises.)

With all the love and goofy energy I can muster,

Satoru Gojo

Personally, I dislike the word ‘waifu’ cause it’s general definition couldn’t be further from my situation. Nevertheless, ‘waifuism’ is the label that accurately describes my relationship, even if I dont use it for myself! On top of that I love the waifuism community, they’re an amazingly open and accepting group of wonderfully sweet people. Satoru is a fictional character (sometimes I like to think of it as him being in a different universe) so he’s not entirely real, but our feelings and relationship very much are. As I said earlier, he gives me this feeling of “rightness”. I can’t imagine myself cuddling, kissing or going on dates with anyone else. I’m extremely happy with Satoru and the only one that suffers from our relationship is my bank account.

The only other thing I’ll mention is that I dislike yumeyoshi or selfship. Not in general, I can understand the appeal, but it’s more a fun hobby in those communities. My relationship to Satoru is as serious as any irl one and I love him deeply.
