Repeat after me: You don't have to put something down in order to elevate another.
And also while you're at it: People can date and love more than one person in their lives. People can ship more than one pairing at the same time. Love and respect are unlimited. They won't run out if you use it.
absolute tragedy seeing people tear down one ship to talk about another ship like. do you actually like your ship more than you hate the other? please learn to like things without having to tear other things down thanks!
