Just to be clear, if my child goes out with y’all and y’all return and my child is nowhere to be found, and there’s no answer in sight, your moms are going to be just as sad as I am.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
If we date, don’t stop being you. Keep having fun, keep seeing your friends, keep chasing your goals, and keep enjoying your life. A relationship should add to your life, not take away from it. Just make sure you save time for us too.
Cheating is a character flaw and I wish people weren’t so forgiving about it. It shows a willingness to deceive, to prioritize short-term desire over integrity, and to disregard the trust someone else has placed in them.
Disgusting.
Tolerating always turns to resentment. At first, you call it patience, then love. But what it really is, is self-abandonment. Every time you swallow a boundary, excuse a pattern or silence your discomfort, something inside you keeps score. Likes And eventually, the bill comes due.
Nobody talks about the stage of grief where you can't even talk about it to anyone anymore because everyone expects you to be getting over it but it still runs through your mind everyday.
As independent as I am, I still love to be babied. Acts of service are how I feel loved. I don’t care about money, just lighten my load. I’m too prideful to ask for help, but when you take the initiative and handle things without me saying a word… that means everything.
I highly recommend NOT MAKING LIFE DECISIONS BASED ON YOUR BOYFRIEND OR GIRLFRIEND. Do not stay close to home for them, do not skip opportunities for them, do not pick a university that's close for them. They not the world! Grow yourself, expand your horizons PLEASE.
My favorite plot twist is when people realize I’m exactly who I say I am, that I had pure intentions the whole time & they were projecting their own twisted mindsets onto me !
No one talks enough about how exhausting it is to continuously be the one who “gives grace”. In a lot of instances, you’re giving grace at the expense of putting someone else’s needs before your own.
