i think the love you receive from someone who knows how to be alone is the most sincere. a solitary soul loves u by choice and not out of need for company
you were not made to be shallow so people never have to learn how to swim, you were not made to dilute your depths so people can breathe easier around you, you were made to be felt fully or not at all.
I watched a man lose a good woman because he chose loyalty to the wrong people. Never sacrifice the person who loves you for the people who only benefit from you, family included.
trust the flow of everything that leads you away from what you thought was meant for you. some exits are answers, some endings are directions, what leaves is making room, what stays is making sense; allow the waves to carry you, they know where you belong.
Thereโs a common argument from people who resist being labeled as difficult to work with. They insist they are not difficult; they simply want things to be orderly and done to a high standard. The underlying assumption is that those who are considered easy to work with are somehow more willing to accept lower standards.
I challenge that notion.
Often, when you are labeled as difficult, it is not your standards that are being questioned; it is your character and attitude. An easy person to work with can make the same demands, uphold the same expectations, and still be met with cooperation rather than resistance. The difference lies in how those expectations are communicated.
Attitude matters and so does approach. People respond not just to what you ask for, but how you ask for it. If your delivery feels abrasive, dismissive, or rigid, even reasonable demands can be met with pushback. But when your attitude carries understanding, respect, and empathy, your expectations are more likely to be received positively.
Be mindful of the environments you operate in. Show understanding and sympathy for others and clients you service. You can still uphold high standard, just do it in a way that invites collaboration rather than resistance and be open to negotiations.
Fix the attitude!
Women find it difficult to ask for help, or to be confrontational in their relationships. If she has built up the courage to come to you, you need to know that what she has to say is serious, and you need to take it seriously.
