You can't tell me you love me and not care about my feelings. You can't tell me you love me and shut me out when I try to communicate with you. You can't tell me you love me and not put in the effort to maintain a healthy relationship with me. That toxic shit doesnโt add up to love. Speaking from experience, it adds up to a lot of hurt though. And I can't afford to be hurt by love anymore. The version of me that tolerated that doesn't exist anymore. Not here. Not now. Not ever again.
