I don’t care what anyone says—I REQUIRE an apology and a deep conversation before reconnecting with anyone. I need understanding, accountability, and reassurance that what happened won’t happen again. If we can’t hash out our misunderstandings, there’s no reconciliation. You go your way, I’ll go mine. Time passing doesn’t erase disrespect. Respect is non-negotiable, and I demand all of mine.
Derrick Rose: “That’s a joke that we have in the house. If they see me lacking on something they say, ‘Dad you wanna be good or great?’. And it makes me remember, I wanna be great.” 🥹

A woman once explained it perfectly.
I am not here to manage you. I am not here to monitor your decisions. I am here as your partner and partners protect what they are creating together. You are free to choose your actions. But I am free to express my boundaries. I will always be clear about what I accept and what I do not. That is not control. That is self respect. And that is how healthy relationships survive.
HEARTWARMING: At Alabama, #Eagles QB Jalen Hurts befriended Walt Gary, a superfan with Down syndrome.

Going back and forth with a gaslighter to “remind” them of the details of a situation they’re denying or “forgot” is a waste of your time because they haven’t forgotten and they know the truth. The person they’re tryna convince and confuse is YOU. No amount of proof you can show will make them admit to a reality they’re intentionally trying to deny and distort. The more you give them the opportunity to deny the truth, the more you give them the opportunity to sow the seeds of confusion in you. So you need to disengage.
Michelle Obama:
“Don't even look at me about running, because you all are lying. You're not ready for a woman. So don't waste my time. We got a lot of growing up to do.”
“We will see you tomorrow night.”
