There’s a lady in our estate baking from her unit and going door to door in this freezing weather with a box of samples to introduce her cakes. That kind of courage and hustle deserves recognition💕
You cannot repair a relationship with a man who believes the problem is always your reaction, never his behavior. No relationship can grow when one person refuses to take accountability. If every hurtful action, broken promise, disrespectful comment, or selfish decision somehow gets turned around and blamed on how you responded, the real issue never gets addressed. You end up spending all your time defending your feelings instead of being heard.
@kush_147 Sometimes people don’t really love you for who you are, but for how easy you are to access, how much you understand them, and how often you forgive them.
@AtuanyaKene One of the hardest truths about relationships is that forgiveness and restoration are not always the same thing.
You may forgive someone completely and still find that your heart interacts with them differently than before.
It’s so attractive when people apologise for responding late. or when they keep you in the loop so you don’t start overthinking. the skill of communication is very attractive. basic consideration these days, it stands out cause so many people just disappear and leave you guessing
Stop letting people consume you. They didn't call? Go to sleep. They didn't message you? Put your phone down and have a better day. They left you on read? Delete the conversation. They didn't make an effort? Match their energy. Never let your happiness depend on anyone.
It's selfish to enter someone's life, see that they're a loving, cheerful, and good person, and decide to ruin their present because you haven't dealt with your own issues. Leave people alone if you have no intention of showing up with sincerity
things I've learned don't mean anything:
-sleeping together
-meeting their family
-no protection
-talking about the future
- calling for hours
-"I love you"
