My empathy is not free. It is earned.

[Minhtam @minhtam_3]

If it's genuine, yes.

A genuine apology is the only way to restore trust in someone. It should be specific, excuse-free, and focused on making amends, not demanding or expecting forgiveness in return.

No breadcrumbing, no hoovering, no called to say "hi". Any conversation to restart a relationship should address the conflict FIRST.

[Minhtam @minhtam_3]

No one needs anyone but themselves. That is the truth.

But I do want a girlfriend... that would eventually become my wife.

Life's more fun when you share it with someone else.

Time will tell.

@Ryan_Daigler Why would anybody do that? Nobody wants to go to jail for the rest of their lives on the basis of murder.

Heck, if you went out of your way to murder your abuser, your abuser ultimately won.

[Minhtam @minhtam_3]

Yep.

I'm pretty sure I'm more moon than sun...

More like you just want one special person to cozy up with you and let the rest of the world pass by.

That, to me, is way better than being a social media star looking for adoration from all the fans.

[Minhtam @minhtam_3]

Bruh.

Y'all know Kylian Mbappé is only 27 years old, right?

And he's already scored 18 World Cup Goals and counting.

And he's probably gonna play the 2030, 2034, and 2038 World Cups.

We are in the presence of greatness, people.

[Minhtam @minhtam_3]

Come to think about it, this is true.

Narcissists will traumatize you to be a narcissist yourself.

Then you tramautize your own children so that they become narcissists, and the cycle repeats.

Be the one who breaks the trend. Break the cycle.

[Beyond the Mask @NarcKilling]

narcissists want to traumatise you so you become like them

[Minhtam @minhtam_3]

Also, I'd like to point out that EVERY narcissist is an avoidant, but not all avoidants are narcissists.

And yet, people will just illogically say an avoidant is the narcissist because their coping strategies are exactly the same.

That alone should be enough for an avoidant to want to make the effort to change themselves to be more secure.

[Minhtam @minhtam_3]

I think we really need to stop excusing avoidant behavior.

Yes, it stems from childhood. And yes, it sucks.

But accepting an avoidant for who they are gives the false message that their actions are tolerable. And some of it is toxic and disrespectful.

If you love their emotionally immature selves, they're just going to remain that way.

@Rationale_Male Be self accountable. If people influenced actions, look at how that happened and learn from it.
