your soulmate is someone who’s committed to working things out with you and don’t see breaking up as an option. they’re willing to have difficult conversations, always devoted to finding solutions that make the both of you feel secure, reassured and happy in your relationship.
Never teach a man how to be your man. Don't ask him for anything. Not a date. Not flowers. Not clingy texts. Not morning calls. Not time. Not affection. When a man truly wants you,he moves different on his own. Life's too short to be waiting for someone to act right!
the hardest thing I've learned this year is that you can never force someone to communicate and work things out. you can't beg someone to see that you're worth fighting for and i stand by that now
If you’re in a good relationship with someone who treats you well but clearly has shortcomings and those shortcomings aren’t any form of abuse, then stay and make it work.
Relationships are about unlearning, relearning and compromise. You’re not going to find a perfect person out there because they don’t exist.
There’s absolutely nothing on the streets.
Innate consideration is the most attractive and immediately noticeable quality in all relationships but especially in romantic ones. One thing about women is we notice absolutely everything and take note of it all. It really is the small things; we’ve been saying this forever
all relationships can survive mistakes, but they cannot survive patterns. Repeated behavior isn't a mistake, it's a decision, apologies lose meaning when the actions never change
One of the most painful things people do is pretend that time alone automatically fixes the damage they caused. They disappear, avoid accountability, and silently hope that enough days, weeks, or months will pass so they no longer have to face what they did.
Others just want access to you again without facing consequences. And there is a difference between someone helping you heal and someone pressuring you to stay silent so they can feel better about themselves.
You are not “living in the past” for remembering what broke you.
Real accountability is acknowledging the wound, understanding the damage, and giving people the space to process what happened without making them feel guilty for still hurting.
Some people apologize because they genuinely care.
Pain does not expire just because the person who caused it wants to move on without responsibility. Real accountability is not saying “that was a long time ago.”
Then the moment you speak about your pain again, they act irritated — as if your healing process became a burden simply because it lasted longer than their comfort allowed.
But healing is not something that follows other people’s timelines.
