my life got better when i realized I didn't want to be a nice person. nice got me ran over, stressed out, & disrespected. i'm a good person! there's a difference.
a woman's brain cannot relax until she feels physically & emotionally safe. many men don't understand how much energy women expend checking whether they're safe. providing an environment where she can turn off that part of her brain allows her to truly settle into her femininity
i cannot believe i cared about everyone else’s feelings more than my own for so long. how sad. glad i don’t do that anymore. i needed me so bad this whole time. if you’re hoping someone will care enough or notice and redirect you back to yourself... it’s rare. save yourself.
