when it's someone's first time to be treated right in a relationship, their tendency is to self-sabotage it.
not because they don't want it, but because it feels "too good to be true" & their brain can't process that it's happening with them. +
trust me when i tell you. when a person loves you more than their ego, everything flows. no conversation too uncomfortable. no bare minimum task too great. no reasonable ask too unreasonable. they will move mountains for you because they want to. your happiness makes them happy.
