“I would kill for you.” “I would die for you.”

Yeah, well, I would heal for you. I’d unlearn my toxic patterns, face my wounds, and become a healthier person so my love doesn’t hurt you.

avoidant: i need you to understand my boundaries.

me: of course.
avoidant: i need space when i'm overwhelmed.

me: okay.
me: i need reassurance when i'm anxious.

avoidant: you're exhausting.
me: so your needs are boundaries, but mine are fucking problems?

avoidant: that's not what i meant.
me: funny how your feelings need protection, but mine need permission.

last night, my SEVEN-YEAR-OLD told me she doesn’t get jealous of people because she “has lots of gratitude, and when you’re grateful, there’s no room for jealousy.”

ma’am?? are you an oracle??

“i used to be good at this” hits differently when you remember how much you once loved doing it.

“who will take care of you when you’re old?” is such a disturbing reason to bring a person into this world.

Being cheated on hurts, but have you ever watched your partner value and protect someone else’s feelings more than their own partner’s?

[Solyricon @Solyricon]

SOMEONE KNOWING where to find you who repeatedly chooses not to show up for you, is the answer. You no longer have to keep accepting the bare minimum.

[Libriscent @libriscent]

can we normalize saying:

“sorry, you can’t hang out with us anymore. you cheated on your spouse, and that’s not the kind of influence we want around our marriage.”

[Libriscent @libriscent]

one of the hardest parts of emotional betrayal is watching someone move on with their life while you're left trying to put yourself back together. you didn't cause the hurt, you never asked for it, and yet you're the one left carrying the emotional consequences. there's something so unfair about having to heal from damage you never caused.

Nobody ever tells you that giving yourself permission to be unlikable is ironically what makes you more likeable.

“i remembered” — FOLDED.
“i got you your favorite” — FOLDED.
“i was listening” — FOLDED.
“i pay attention to you” — DOWN ASTRONOMICAL.

My loyalty really had some people thinking they were the best i could do.

no, sweetheart. i was in love, not out of options.

there’s a difference.

The october theory is real.

either you find someone you never expected to meet, or you lose someone you never thought you’d lose.

Attachment says, “i love you, so i need you to change and never hurt me again.” and so, forgiveness becomes heavy and conditional.

unconditional love says, “i love you, so i allow you to be yourself and follow your own becoming, while i choose peace and honor myself.”
