“Don’t reply fast”, “don’t show you care”, “don’t be a homebody”, “don’t always be available”. I’m grown, if I have to play these type of games for someone to be interested in me then I’m not longer interested. I operate best when I can be my full/authentic self.
I saw a TikTok once where a woman said you know you’re in a healthy relationship when your worst fear isn’t getting cheated on or disrespected, but it’s the other person dying 😩😩😩😩
After a certain age, being a bad partner is just embarrassing. Sooo you didn’t do any work on yourself? No introspection, no healing, no growth… just basking in your toxicity huh?
we talked about how grief catches up to you on a random tuesday, but what about how the realization that you're not as healed as you thought you were creeping up on a monday morning
Resist the urge to always vent to your friends and family about your relationship when you & your partner are having issues. There are circumstances where outside input can be very helpful or help you see things clearly, but not every single disagreement or setback needs it.
