i don’t think people realize how exhausting it is to constantly downplay what you feel just so you don’t come across as difficult. you start shrinking before anyone even asks.
can we talk about how women get OVERSTIMULATED, and it’s mistaken for ANGER? no, she’s not angry, the TV is way too loud, the dryer’s running, her shirt feels too tight, her messy bun isn’t sitting right, and there are crumbs on the floor that she can feel under her feet. she’s NOT mad, she’s overstimulated and just needs a MINUTE to pull herself together
princess treatment doesn’t mean he buys me whatever i want. it means he LISTENS, he PROTECTS, he LEADS, he is HUMBLE, and he communicates. he doesn’t let me go to sleep crying or upset. he doesn’t make me feel like i’m hard to love. he is my PEACE in chaos and my HOME.
