@RespectedShootr @JDilone23_ @_brvndon_v I was speaking for myself as I mentioned in my tweet. Crime rate statistics in NYC are only based on reported incidents (https://t.co/siJyZsIrnZ) and doesnโt account for unreported attacks. Despite the stats, the collective fear women have is very real.
@JDilone23_ I agree that kids arenโt facing the same dangers we faced growing up. However, I think two things can be true at one and I think itโs important for me to share my perspective and that of other women who have expressed feeling uneasy and unsafe in NYC.
one of the hardest pills to swallow is accepting the fact that you canโt force someone to care, to love you, to be invested like you. it either comes naturally or not at all.
You deserve more random unexpected acts of love from people that do them selflessly without expecting anything in return, only because they enjoy reminding you that you are loved & appreciated
When getting in relationships, which are completely voluntary, do we not find it bizarre that at times people choose not to give their partners the things that make them feel loved and safe? -thread
