abandonment issues make you crave the chase. you wanna feel fought for as if it proves someone’s care for you. and if they don’t chase, you tell yourself it wasn’t real, they left you anyway.. even if you’re the one who pushed or left. it’s a unhealthy cycle to break for sure.
Staying in a relationship JUST because you love someone is not worth it. Love IS NOT all you need. Respect is what you need. Time is what you need. Reassurance is what you need. Happiness is what you need. A bestfriend is what you need.
I saw a lady online say that people will “breadcrumb u” meaning they will give you just enough, little by little, to keep you around and take ur energy. And it made me so disgusted with the truth.
