Cheating isn’t the only bad thing that goes on in relationships…having a partner that continues to do something that triggers you after you repeatedly communicated that you don’t like it THEN gaslight you like you’re wrong and your feelings aren’t valid is one of the worst!!!!!!

lately i’ve had a really low tolerance for people being careless with my feelings. i’m starting to take notice of all the people in my life who don’t think twice about how their actions make me feel and that hurts because i thought we were closer than that.

When love visits me again, may it be safe, secure, genuine & reassuring.

[nina @ninagrewrites]

feeling like you’re walking on eggshells around someone is a sign that they do not know how to set up an environment where it feels emotionally safe. you should not have to constantly feel on edge bc their responses historically and currently are not consistent or predictable.

[Godfrey Aloyce Tairo @GODFREYTAIRO_]

to me, constantly having to clear the air with someone is a sign they’re not meant to be in your life. if they’re not making an effort to understand their impact on your needs and emotions when you keep trying to understand your impact on theirs, what is the point?

my mom once told me "waiting for someone to act correctly is a disrespect to yourself. you're compromising your worth just because someone can't fully afford it."

I’m so ready to be loved by a man that wants to do forever with me lol. I want the romance, the fun, the companionship, the time together, the everything! I need dates that change my life and I want to be pursued consistently. Marriage and family me! 😭😭

Defensiveness is the number one cause of disconnection in relationships.

It keeps us feeling stuck and unheard.

How To Unlearn Being Defensive:

[imdatfeminist 🧞‍♀️ @imdatfeminist]

You can’t have open and honest conversations with someone you’re dating/considering dating??? It won’t get better as you “get to know them.” They’re SHOWING you how they operate. They don’t give a fuck about your feelings/won’t hear you out/will not even try to understand them.

[imdatfeminist 🧞‍♀️ @imdatfeminist]

This is likely the same type of person who blames you for being upset about what THEY’VE done, NEVER apologizes and guilts you so much that you’re terrified to be honest with them. That’s not love. Building a life with someone like this? Not an option. End it. Walk away. Leave.

[imdatfeminist 🧞‍♀️ @imdatfeminist]

If your partner makes you feel like absolute shit for voicing your concerns, asking them simple questions, looking for some reassurance sometimes, and just..trying to speak to them about the problems in your relationship (so you can FIX them!!)...

Run. This person will ruin you.

[Random Acts of Kindness @aorkindnes]

so please, if u still find urself chasing after someone who is not chasing after u — stop running towards those dead ends and instead start running toward urself.

[Random Acts of Kindness @aorkindnes]

like u are too much, it should never make you feel like a difficult person to care for. if there is one thing life has taught me, it is that love, worthwhile love, should never make u quiet ur heartbeat, it should never be something u have to beg for.

[Random Acts of Kindness @aorkindnes]

u must give urself permission to move forward, to let go, to believe in the fact that u deserve to be loved by someone who will look at u and know that u are enough. bcs if there is one thing life has taught me, it is that love, genuine love, should never make you feel

Learning this the hard way.

[imdatfeminist 🧞‍♀️ @imdatfeminist]

Dating someone who is emotionally unavailable is like pouring your love into a black hole. You give them everything. You give but don’t receive. You’re left drained and empty. It’ll make you lose your mind, self-esteem and happiness. They’re just incapable of loving you back.

[ariana @MyNameIsArii_]

I’m tired of feeling like this.

[Wakeup People @WakeupPeopIe]

If you want to be happy, be happy on purpose.

[gabitha. @igabitha]

safety to me, is reliability that is consistent & long-standing. it’s a deep sense of knowing that you got me, just as i have you. it’s not rooted in fear. it’s not a constant fight or flight mode. it’s safe. it’s being on the same page. it’s open & flowing communication.
