I don't know who told you otherwise, but they lied to you.

Letting go of someone whom you've shared a form of relationship with, even if they've consistently hurt you, even though you've acknowledged they aren't good for you, isn't going to be easy.

It's going to be one of the hardest things you've ever done. And it's going to feel absolutely painful to break that connection.

Duygularını gizlemeye ve onunla yaşamaya çalışıyorsun, ama gözlerin seni ele veriyor.

crazy how you can still feel anxious even after you’ve decided mentally you don’t care

i’m doing really well for someone who goes through the five stages of grief daily

A dad who teaches his son it’s okay to cry, process failure, and feel supported instead of telling him to 'tough it out' is healing generations of toxic masculinity right before our eyes. This is beautiful.

don’t forget that a compass was invented before the clock because direction is more important than time.

adulting really humbles you. i finally understand why some people go quiet, stop posting, or just disappear from social media.

i believe in re-reading and re-watching your favourite books & movies at different stages of your life. the plot never changes, but your perspective does.

I hate that retail therapy works on me. I am so much happier and at peace when I’m buying things for myself

It’s a red flag if your partner becomes very mean to you when you guys are fighting. It is quite important to have a partner that can still be kind to you during arguments and fight. You should still feel the love even in chaos and during fights. A kind partner is key!

my mom says “If a man wants the benefits of having a good woman without the responsibility of being a good man. That’s not a partner. That’s a parasite.”

[Kush @kush_147]

Good people have high levels of empathy, but once that empathy is exhausted, they switch to a state of objective observation. They see you for exactly who you are, without the filter of their love. This is why their anger feels so cold, it is the absence of the warmth you took for granted

[preye🤎 @tessysmitha]

I don’t understand why people have normalized suffering in relationships just because they love someone.

Love isn’t enough on its own. You also need respect, reassurance, happiness, and peace of mind. Don’t ignore what’s hurting you, if it’s draining let that shit go !!!

My man said something to me that really stuck.

He told me, “I’m not actually here to control you. I’m not your dad, I’m your partner. You’re free to make your own choices. Just understand that every choice has consequences. If you choose something that damages what we’ve built, that’s on you.”

He said, “I’ll always tell you when something hurts me or crosses a boundary, because that’s what healthy communication looks like. But if you keep stepping over the line after I’ve shown you where it is, then you were never really protecting us to begin with.”
And honestly, that’s what accountability in a relationship sounds like.

Your SPOUSE is the one who'll sit beside you when your PARENTS DIE. who'll hold your hand through CHILDBIRTH. who might have to BATHE YOU if you're ever too sick to stand. this isn't just about BUTTERFLIES or DATE NIGHTS. it's about choosing someone who SHOWS UP... in GRIEF, in MESS, in UNCERTAINTY. so no, LOVE ALONE isn't enough. COMMITMENT, MATURITY, and the ability to ENDURE life's ugly parts... that's what sustains a MARRIAGE. because when life gets PAINFULLY REAL, ROMANCE won't carry you... CHARACTER will. and the truth is, FOREVER is only possible with someone who knows how to STAY when it's HARD TO LOVE.
