i’m a good ass woman, anyone who’s ever experienced me, platonically or romantically can validate that. even with everything i’ve been through, my heart & character always remains solid.
Pregnancy is hard. Having a baby is hard. Maintaining a good relationship with your partner/person you have a baby with is hard. Being a mom is hard. Growing and raising little humans is hard. Mother’s got it hard but make it look so easy.
Nobody tells you that some of your biggest milestones happen quietly. No party. No post. Just you, standing in your kitchen, realizing you finally feel okay.
I grew up walking on eggshells, recognizing footsteps, tones. How to tell if someone was in a bad mood and to avoid them. I learned to study people at a young age. I’m quiet and observant for a reason. I will read you like a book before we even speak.
I used to be big on addressing stuff because I felt like communication would fix things. But it's so draining now. Let people be who they are and move on.
i saw a girl on tiktok who said "accountability is so important to me. nobody's perfect, but don't try to flip the script and make my reaction the issue when your actions lit the match" i felt this to the core.
I pray I marry a man who actually wants to be married. An honest, hardworking, loving man. I pray he has morals, goals, and boundaries. Even when things get tough between us he won't give up. A man who isn't out here embarrassing the family we created.
