When they avoid repair over & over & over again when there’s an issue/conflict, this is the sign you need to call it what it is. A dead end. If they won’t walk through the hard parts with you, the love may linger, but it won’t grow roots. You can’t fix a relationship by yourself.
Matching someone's nonchalant energy when you are naturally sweet and caring is mentally draining and damaging. You can lose yourself and never get it back.
Living in survival mode will have you silencing your truth to avoid conflict or rejection, managing people's emotions while neglecting your own, tolerating disrespect because enforcing boundaries feels too risky, and saying yes to please others because you're afraid to lose them.
a big part of maturing as a woman is realizing things are no longer for you and knowing when to exit gracefully. no beef, no hard feelings. it's selfish for people to know you deserve better, but still want to keep you around. let it go!
