a brutal reality is the way people move on after mistreating you. they’re not sitting up in a room feeling bad thinking about you. most of the time they move on and live perfectly fine after doing you dirty. so release yourself from the shackles of waiting for someone to regret how they mistreated you cause it won’t ever happen.
People who withhold love to punish you don't really love you, they love their power, control, and influence over you. You deserve better than this toxic power trip relationship. Surround yourself with people who love and appreciate you, not what they can get from you.
