some of y'all need to understand that your partner asking you to change isn’t them trying to change who you are. it’s them asking you to fix the patterns that are damaging the relationship
i usually disappear. not because i want anyone to chase me, but because i don’t know how to explain what’s going on in my head without sounding like i’m asking for pity
i’m so exhausted. i feel like i’m repeating the same day over and over, the same routine, same feelings, same meaningless drama. i’m so sick of it, i just want to feel alive and be happy but i’m constantly drained and everything feels so pointless. i just feel dead.
Neurodivergent women need quality alone time. To be weird. To dance or sing in her room. To unmask and recharge in whatever neurospicy way she pleases. There can be severe consequences like burnout, chronic illness, and poor coping mechanisms when she doesn't do this.
The downside of being emotionally intelligent is that you always try to see things from everyone else's point of view, but most people don't do the same for you. you spend a lot of time making sure others feel heard and understood. you forgive easily because you know everyone has their own struggles. you excuse their mistakes because you understand their pain. but when it's your turn, it often feels like no one really listens. they forget you have feelings too. they forget you also need understanding and someone to see things from your side. so who will understand you the way you understand others? who will notice when you're struggling and show the same patience and care you always give? sometimes it feels lonely, like your heart is open for everyone but no one opens theirs for you. yet, even when it hurts, you keep giving love and understanding, hoping one day someone will do the same for you.
not mad. just disappointed because i told you multiple times how i feel about those things and you still choose to do the things i told you that affect me most.
