i dont think people realize how beneficial being alone for awhile is. taking time off from relationships, finding out who you are & what you want out of your life, learning to love yourself and growing, learning to be content and happy without needing someone. Its crucial.
one of the best things you can do for your mental health is stop trying to micro-manage outcomes or people. let people do what they’re gonna do, protect your own space, and keep your focus locked on your own growth and your goals.
girls.... pleaseeeee pick the gentle one. the kind one. the one who brings you peace. the protective one. the one who is sure of you. the one who respects you. the one who understands your silence.
