@bbypita03 i think about them from time to time, but still think, that it was a right decision. relationship need emotional work and it's just responsible and respectful to a potential partner to not rush things, when you're not ready yet.
@bbypita03 idk if you need to hear this, but i remember when i was not in the right place to start a relationship, but met an amazing person who also suggested dating. i was honest with them and we ended up spending time together as friends an drifting apart later.
The line "I love you but I love me/myself more" changed how I evaluate my relationships. I live by it. I love deeply & generously but I draw the line when I start to become self destructive for the other person.
i remember reading something that said "if everything in your house is beautiful even the messes you make will look beautiful" and i think about that often. a lot of items we own are just quite ugly. the average mug, the average can, the average table, everything.
