Somebody asked Ice Cube how he and his wife have managed to be married for 32 years and his answer was, "Because we want to be." And you know what, it really is that simple. Two people choosing each other every day is a beautiful thing.
realizing that you’re incompatible with someone (because they don’t meet your basic standards of courtesy, respect and reciprocation) and choosing to walk away instead of forcing it/blaming yourself/fantasizing about their potential is a superpower. look how much you’ve grown.
You can literally feel it in your soul when it's TIME. time to move on from people, time to make a change in your life, time to get rid of unhealthy habits, time to want MORE for yourself. At some point, you'll just KNOW. That's your call.
