Sometimes I accidentally accept the bare minimum trying to be considerate of what others are going through & that is a habit I need to let go of expeditiously
so many men hit the gym after a breakup thinking their body is the issue. brother, you have the emotional intelligence and maturity of a door knob. GO TO THERAPY.
It's heartbreaking how often women find themselves walking away from men they deeply love,not because the love isn't real, but because emotional awareness, communication, and empathy are missing. Sometimes love alone isn't enough to sustain a healthy relationship.
HOT TAKE: Boys aren't raised to be men. They're raised to not be girls. That's the root of so much misogyny. Society doesn't teach boys empathy, emotional honesty, or respect for women as equals, it teaches them to suppress vulnerability, dominate,and fear anything "feminine." They're rewarded for aggression and punished for kindness. And when adulthood hits,these habits don't just vanish, they manifest as entitlement, objectification, and sexism.
