My cousin was sexually assaulted, and some of the relatives asked, “Why didn’t she fight back?” I said, “Handing over your wallet when you're getting mugged is seen as a way to keep yourself safe. Yet when you comply during Sexual Assault, people ask why you didn't fight back.”
Silence in the room
i just heard someone on TikTok say “this is the first time in history women are dating men for their character. and that’s why no one is dating.” and she was right.
“He has childhood trauma.” So do I.
“He’s under a lot of pressure at work.” So am I.
“He’s just overwhelmed.” Me too.
The only difference is that we excuse men’s behavior, and shame women for not carrying it.
Nah it gets me heated actually. Then they get mad like “why you sending me pictures you posted on IG?” Because last time you said “😍😍😍” and marcus273 replied to my story and said he will kill niggas about me from the same picture I sent you! 🤣🤣🤣
Another form of low self esteem is definitely being too available to people who have shown you countless times that they lack a sense of urgency and enthusiasm towards you. I know its hard but regulate your nervous system to calm down.
