Nobody likes you when you're depressed.
Plain and simple. We can talk all day about mental health and how important it is, but the moment you are depressed, people start to distance themselves. They see you as negative, a burden, and someone too heavy to handle.
I’d say, don’t look for a partner through dating apps. Yes, some people are lucky enough to find someone there, but it’s better to meet your partner elsewhere.
Suicidal ideation, for many, isn't about death.
It's about relief.
From shame.
From feeling overwhelmed constantly. From feeling like a fucking burden.
The goal isn't always "not wanting to be alive"
It's just not wanting to live like this.
I hate how social media makes us forget that life has stages. It’s normal to be broke, to have broke friends or partners and yes it’s even normal to be unemployed at times. These are phases we all go through.
Some people are lucky enough to find good jobs at a young age and afford a certain lifestyle. Others take longer and that’s perfectly okay. We need to stop comparing ourselves and start accepting our journey. I just want all of us to be at peace with where we are in life while still working and striving for better.
Now I finally understand this sentence: "Stop saying so much to someone who doesn’t even have much to say to you. You look pathetic."
Ahhh my god, I really do look pathetic
My toxic trait is I'll keep trying & trying & trying because I have a problem with quitting on people I care for until I quit, and when I quit I really quit & there's no fixing that because I turn cold.
Someone once told me "You don’t know how to love properly."
So I asked him how he loves, and he said, "I love a woman who’s willing to satisfy my desires."
That’s ridiculous���
Women, stop breaking your spirit trying to prove you’re “enough” for a man who’s already decided he wants more than one heart to play with. You can love him deeply, stay loyal, cook his favorite meals, show up in every way possible...and if he’s built to cheat, he will. Because cheating has nothing to do with you and everything to do with his lack of self-control, integrity, and respect. You can’t teach a man morals. You can’t love him into honesty. You can’t hold a man down who’s determined to keep wandering. The truth is, loyalty isn’t earned...it’s chosen. It’s a reflection of his character, not your worth. So stop exhausting yourself trying to secure a man’s loyalty. The right man won’t make you beg for consistency, question your place, or compete for his attention. When a man truly values you, you won’t have to remind him what loyalty looks like… he’ll already be living it.
Although I'm ok with being single, I can't wait to actually meet someone who's actually interested in me. The constant crave of wanting to talk, asking about my day, my feelings, sharing laughter & being heard is so rare nowadays. Nobody communicates anymore. Real is Rare.
