and one day, you’ll be in your house, playing your favorite music as you make your favorite meal for dinner and you’ll realise that you’re living an answered prayer
Someone gives you a “maybe”, they’re automatically wasting your time. Someone can holds a boundary or disagrees with you, they’re cold or toxic. Everyone wants closeness, but on their own terms. Mutuality be damned lol.
I think a major reason dating has become so fucked is that so many people have a low threshold for discomfort. The second something makes one uncomfortable, instead of leaning, they cut and run. Avoidance masquerading as boundaries and self respect.
solange lives her life in a way that i aspire. one minute she's curating some super artsy shit, then she's at a random rappers show, then she's on a yacht, then she's in nature bathing in a waterfall, then she's at a fashion show in the latest pieces. need that level of freedom.
ngl I feel like everything that happened these last 6 months needed to happen. to allow me to see everybody ain’t for me, learning to set boundaries , learning to stop over sharing and over playing my part.
I have this deep and unshakable faith that everything will work out for me. There may be times where things look and feel slow to come to fruition but i never let go of that faith, it keeps me going.
Starting to believe more and more that if you’re constantly having to “protect your peace”, you never had it. And likely rarely bring peace to others lol.
I’ve been diving a lot into attachment theory and spaces. And I’m realizing a lot of people don’t use it as a tool to understand, do their work, and grow. But rather as an excuse to hide behind. Much like people and their zodiac signs.
“I’m anxious. Reassure me.” That’s valid. But are you doing the vulnerable thing and stating that’s what you need? Or engaging in manipulative “protest behaviors”/guilt trips then acting gagged when someone can’t read your mind/disengages?
your capacity to hold other people’s weight, worries and concerns does not make it your responsibility to carry them. know the difference between selflessness and self sabotage.
