I'm not 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. 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.
“if you need me. call me. i don’t care if i’m sleeping. if i’m having my own problems or if i’m angry at you. if you need me and if you need to talk to me. i’ll always be there for you.”
