I crave space. It charges my batteries. It helps me breathe. Being around people can be so exhausting, because most of them love to take and barely know how to give.
It's selfish to enter someone's life, see that they're a loving, cheerful, and good person, and decide to ruin their present because you haven't dealt with your own issues. Leave people alone if you have no intention of showing up with sincerity
When I like someone, I instantly start going too hard. I am too available, too giving, too loyal, too thoughtful, too reliable. I need to calm down and only be what someone is to me. That's my problem. I always love how I want to be loved hoping it gets reciprocated
People will always use you to elevate themselves and you’re still where you started. The moment you shift your effort back into yourself, it makes them mad.
But in reality, you’re bettering them for someone else. Good luck to that someone else I guess.
Especially if you’re a solutions person. Someone brings you their problems and you put more effort into them than not only yourself, but more effort than they are into all of it.
