"stay with them through ups & downs."
downs are NOT:
-cheating
-disrespect
-abuse: verbal, mental, physical, spiritual
-manipulation
-gaslighting
-control
downs are:
-financial hardships
-health issues
-tragic death/injury
-rough points in a relationship (arguing, lack of
intercourse, losing the "spark")
-trouble keeping/finding individuality in a relationship
stop normalizing putting yourself through trauma trying to prove to somebody that you love them
i CANNOT fw people who do NOT understand the PRINCIPLE of things. it’s not what you did. it’s how you did it. and what makes it worse is knowing if roles were reversed, you’d lose your mind
