I texted him, "How was your day today?" and he sent me a 10-minute voice note telling me everything.
And that basically sums up the kind of person I want by my side. Stop normalizing disinterest.
“He has childhood trauma.” So do I.
“He’s under a lot of pressure at work.” So am I.
“He’s just overwhelmed.” Me too.
The only difference is that we excuse men’s behavior, and shame women for not carrying it.
when Michelle said Barack has “stubborn optimism” I realized I also really want that in a partner. Somebody who isn’t moved by life’s shortcomings but ALWAYS sees the light at the end of the tunnel. That’s a true leader, not just of a country but a household. what a legacy.

3 things i don’t like when talking to me. Don’t talk to me like I’m your child . Don’t talk to me like I’m suppose to be scared of you. And never try to talk to me like I’m stupid. I get HOT quick
Acts of service is the most valuable love language to me bc i love when ppl do things 4 me that make my life easier. It also takes a lot of thoughtfulness & observation to properly execute. You can literally tell how much someone loves you when their actions consistently show it.
